Reviews
"Food plays a big part in our whānau as it not only links to what we eat but it connects us with the people when we share a meal with. The breakfast was absolutely wonderful and is a testament of all those qualities we want in a breakfast that ignites conversation, laughter and more importantly, whānau ties. Thank you, very highly recommended"
"We visited on 11 April 23 and had breakfast as we have done on a number of occasions previously. The breakfasts have always been good but for some reason this one was great! 10/10 to the team at The Raft for a great meal and thank you!"
"Best carrot cake in town I recon Breakfast was great"
"Called in for a lunch here as its a good place for my coeliac wife to eat. Their gf options are somewhat limited, and have never changed, so getting a little boring eating the same thing each time. I had their special Fettuccine for lunch which was delicious, but I thought it was a bit expensive for a lunch, took a long time to arrive, and there was way too much. I usually eat a lot, but it was too much for me. Still, a good place to visit occasionally with friendly staff."
