Reviews of Bendix Stables Food Emporium and Watering Hole
C.
Perfect setting with grass area and huge rock for kids to play on while you eat. Food was delicious and very well presented. We sat outside but unfortunately both heaters were out of gas. Blankets were available at each table which was a lovely touch to sum up the overall great experience.
A.
It was a cold morning at 11am, no sun at restaurant as yet, so we sat inside..the heaters weren't turned on outside, (not sure if they did or not)
The Shataki Mushrooms were ok, in croquette style. The corn fritters were very tasty & the Pork Rib Bgr looked nice. We were going for breakfast/brunch, nothing very breakfasty..hence the corn fritters but was good service n reasonably priced.
C.
We stopped off here for a delicious lunch. Really friendly staff. When it started to rain, we escaped inside and had a brilliant spot looking out. Would definitely recommend a visit here if you’re in the area.
D.
Loved Arrowtown. Lots of buildings with character and smiĺey faces.
P.
Highly recommended place for a night out - food is great - wine selection is good - staff are great and the atmosphere is relaxing and inviting.
T.
One of the best cafe in Arrowtown. Friendly staff, yummy food, good coffee and a nice atmosphere. A small reserve area outside the cafe make a big difference.
J.
Great food. Family friendly. Lovely beer on tap. Most importantly, a very cool climbing rock and pit to keep the kids entertained.
B.
Delicious gourmet food. Great drink selection. Brilliant and friendly service. Recommend to all in Arrowtown looking for a cozy and comfortable dining experience with a historical feel!
N.
Great food, friendly service in a stunning location... but location is not suitable in all weather as the restaurant is 75% outdoors
Stunning place if it's lovely weather
J.
Really lovely place to have food or just a drink, very good service, great choice of wines & beers
T.
We went to the Stables on Valentine's night. We ordered the plate of cold meats, which was very good. To drink, we ordered a caipirinha, which is a Brazilian cocktail. I'm Brazilian and the ingredients used were not the same as a traditional caipirinha, so the drink did not have the similar taste. If you want to make the original caipirinha, I'll be happy to help :)
P.
Popped in on a quiet-ish weekend in May, having spied spare tables from the Main Street. Pleasant outdoor area by a little green. Staff made sure the heater was turned up and close. Mixed drinks came out fast and well made, wine list was decent at a fair price.
The lunch was exceptional. We went for the “grill” option, 2 x chicken. Took a while to arrive, but worth the wait... the meat perfectly roasted, insanely buttery mash, glorious herbed butter and rich pepper sauces. And the servings were HUGE... perfect fodder if you’ve just hiked up and down a mountain. We rolled out full and happy. Big hearty meal at a very fair price. Would return.
Y.
Come to New Zealand in 2019. Good fish reasonable price. Easy parking.
S.
Beautiful cosy place, warm with yummy decent sized meals! Lovely staff and a great drink selection.
H.
Lovely place, yummy food and friendly staff. We went twice and were only in queenstown for a day!
D.
The food is great, and the wine as well. I ordered the ribeye with demi glace, and didn't even touch the sauce, as the steak was tasty enough without it. I'm only giving it 4-stars because table service would be more suitable for this sort of place. The menu is too large for their fast-casual approach of "order first + then go sit". Otherwise top marks all around
n.
Great meals - I had ribeye steak which was tender and really tasty, cooked really nicely. And they have a great selection of beers on tap.
C.
Fantastic food in a lovely setting. The salads are amazing. They know how to cook seafood!
S.
This is a great little pub, located next to a green park. Great to take your dog. The food was delicious except for the fish wings (stay clear from them!)
s.
Great food, lovely staff, fantastic drinks selection. Atmosphere both inside and out is welcoming and friendly.
H.
Epic lunch, definitely memorable. Sat outside in the sun with a nice view, waiter was a character, but perfectly attentive, not in your face, but hit all the marks for an enjoyable meal. there was an issue with the order where the printer failed, so our meals got delayed, but things happen, and the important thing is the waiter owned it, and made good by giving us a little taste and spiel of a yet-to-be released local wine they had on-hand while we waited. My chicken sandwich was good... but my partners fish chips and mushy peas was INSANE good, crispy batter, perfectly cooked fish, well seasoned peas and a killer curry aioli. And thanks to the impromptu tasting, our next stop was that local winery, Wet Jacket, where we walked out with a load of wine and cheese that was well matched!
L.
Best steak meal with perfect fresh vegetables and at a cheap price. Music, atmosphere and lovely staff all made for a great Sunday night dinner. Also great to sit outside with a cold beer overlooking the green the day before.
J.
Nice hearty food, great craft beer selection. Did confuse the orders across the tables but fixed it all up in the end. My burger was superb and the duck fat potatoes are next level
R.
Great food. Nice place for a meal and drink
P.
Beautiful setting next to a gorgeous grassed area. The food was yummy and almost (but not quite) spectacular.
Service was great and the prices were pretty good (cocktails were very well priced though).
Overall, I would recommend it for a pretty great night.
L.
Great menu and the food is fabulous. Very friendly service.
P.
Amazing food, great beer
R.
Great food with a good selection of craft beers and local wines, served outside on the sundeck or inside in the historic Bendix Stables. Either way a great experience with attentive staff to make your experience one to remember.
C.
Bendix is a phenomenal addition to Arrowtown. Great food, good wine and draft beer selection, but the location and the vibe is perfect. Best eggs Benedict I’ve found in NZ (bacon jam is amazing), and don’t miss their chicken and waffles!
H.
Great food, friendly staff, stylish environment, great selection of local beers, wines and spirits. Perfect for groups, casual dining, a few drinks or families. Especially with the green right next door. This will be an epic spot on the summer
A.
Cool atmosphere, nice food, lots of good choices as well and nice to have local beers.
J.
Amazing food, great atmosphere and a really nice atmosphere. Highly recommend.
L.
We went here for a special birthday dinner. I especially loved the atmosphere and the friendly staff. The good food was great too especially the entrees of "seafood chowder" and "calamari". There was great selection of wine. We chose the Mt Difficulty Pinot Noir. The staff were pleasant and the service great. Because of the over-all very good status we have to give it an excellent for this type of restaurant. We will be coming again.
G.
We came here on a recommendation, and we left with a booking to come again the next night. Wine is amazing (try the local Otago Summerhouse wine). The service all round is excellent, very comfy and cosy atmosphere with delicious food (we tried the pie and pasta both and loved them!) also, try and guess what animal the pelts came from... i said goat, my wife said a husky or deer. Not 100% sure.
L.
Delicious food and friendly staff, a great little spot for dinner.
C.
Great service, great food and great beer. Cod wings were a pleasant different food. Would recommend
J.
Nice coffee and nice outdoor seating
D.
Hey we stumbled on this place. The beer is good but the food is outstanding. Bravo to all concerned. The duty manager Alice is a sweet lady.

We are from Australia and we had our wedding reception at the Stables Restaurant, Arrowtown on the 12th March 2011 and I could not praise the staff/service/food high enough. We had a wedding party of 27 and each and every one of our guests LOVED the food (the food was "WOW" and absolutely beautiful) and the service was fantastic. For a wedding reception we could not have asked for anything more. A must visit to Stables Restaurant if you are in Arrowtown.
S.
Warm and inviting in the middle of winter. Great service, great food, lovely atmosphere. The mushroom soup was the best I have ever had. I'm still craving it! 😄
J.
Smashed avo was awesome ! Great location just on the park, though there was a strange sulfur smell that kept wafting over which wasn’t so nice. Toilets were a bit dirty - no soap which was strange. Service was friendly though, so that along w the good food means id prob come back.
A.
Great service and perfectly good food in a terrific setting. Would give it 3.5 if i could - almost a 4, but the steak was just a touch overdone. So close!
N.
Nice, shame I had to share my breakfast with a wasp lol
P.
Had dinner last night for the first time. Its 'fine dinning'and our meals came out beautifully presented!. Unfortunately we will never rexommend this locatuon to anyone, nor go back. The meals were over $35 on average each, very small and not at all filling. I orded the scotch fillet... Came out about the size of a kiwi fruit!.
Building and atmosphere was brilliant, anf the service was impecable!.
R.
Have been enjoying the sunshine outside finally and the staff make it even warmer. Great food and cool drinks the perfect mix.
N.
The waiter had great conversation and the meal was superb, topped off by a great garden view and lovely sunlight, don't forget to have a look inside and up the stairs, definitely a highlight of the journey.
H.
The meals were well presented and from good quality. Staff was very friendly but unfortunately we won't go back and we can't recommend it. The meals are to our opinion quite expensive and not enough value for money.
S.
Have visited for afternoon coffee and lunch in the past and it is always delightful. Visited again on a cold winter's afternoon in August with two other couples and we were made to feel most welcome. We went upstairs - and the fire was lit for us and made to feel at home. To our hosts - thank you.
Z.
Very friendly staff, they are very helpful and kind. You are informed before the order if you have to wait for the food more than 15 minutes. Food is fantastic as well.
A.
Great food, staff and beautiful view as you're right on the park! Really good seafood chowder. Will definitely be back!

Yummy food and a very nice location. It would have been five stars but the chicken sandwich while delicious was not well thought out. It was an open face sandwich and therefore could not been picked up and the bread made it very difficult to cut through. My wife lamb and gnocchi was delicious.
