Stonyridge Vineyard

Definitely recommend a visit here. We turned up without a booking and they very kindly fitted us in. We were super lucky as very busy day as was Sunday after the 3rd Lions Test so lots of visitors (like us) over on Waiheke. Delightful French lady serving us who couldn't have been more helpful. We got the degustation platter which was huge along with some scallops and finished off with some beautiful cheeses. Add in a touch of wine tasting and a couple of glasses of vino and it was a top afternoon.

Went there yesterday. Fabulous setting. Great service. Delicious food and wines. We had the sharing platter. Loved the sauv blanc an the excellent Cabernet Franc

Heck of a spot at Stoney Ridge Vineyard. If you want a sit down lunch inside, make reservations. We sat outside for the tasting menu. The chips and guacamole, smoked fish pâté, and Chicken Gyro were all very good. The gyro was much larger than k was expecting and very filling. This place has two helipad’s which is quite a site to see.

This place is clearly a 5 star. The wine was fantastic. They knew what they were doing with blending different grapes. I can't rate the food as we were only here for a wine tasting with a cheese platter. However, we will definitely come back to try a dine in experience. The atmosphere is luxury.

Staff were 5/5 Food was 3/5 Wine was 5/5 Atmosphere was 5/5 Overall review of 5 stars was based on the staff. From the maître’d looking after us, to the bar staff serving us they are what made this venue The views are stunning and no matter which member of their team you asked, they all could eloquently explain the wine and the region. Food was ok but not of similar rating to the rest of the venue and experience. Getting to the venue from the ferry terminal was approx 10 15 min drive. Or you could take a helicopter ride from what we observed with three arriving from the same tour company.
