About St Georges Restaurant

A farm-to-table restaurant and boutique wedding and event venue at 452 St Georges Road in Havelock North, Hawke's Bay. The restaurant grows much of its food: the website says about 90 per cent of the produce is grown on site, and diners can see the garden from the table. The room has a courtyard under grapevines, cosy corner booths, and views over orchards to Te Mata Peak.

Menus follow a paddock-to-plate idea, with seasonal, organic produce and a dedicated menu for children. The website says the food leans heavily on plant-based produce, though it is not an exclusively vegetarian restaurant. The restaurant has run a two-course winter lunch and a midweek table. It also hosts weddings, launch parties, conferences, Christmas functions and birthdays, and offers off-site catering across Hawke's Bay. Diners quoted on the website praise the food, the garden setting, the impeccable service and the wedding venue. One mentions the arancini and the pork belly.
