est Wine Bar & Eatery - cosy and glorious

Private dining monday to sunday,
open for long lazy weekend lunches, platters and wine in the courtyard
and sumptuous get togethers.


est Wine Bar & Eatery is situated in the 19th century Post Office building on Martinborough
Square, in the centre of the towns vineyards. An extensive wine list contains both old and new
world wines with emphasis on the Wairarapa. The original bank vault now houses the cellar wine.

Chef Chris Francis, formally Head Chef of Eton Wine Bar in London and Provence Restaurant in
Ponsonby, produces contemporary New Zealand cuisine with emphasis on local produce.
Dine in the restaurant lounge or in one of the private dining rooms, or in the front courtyard. In
the wine bar, platters are available.
