The Old Church Restaurant & Bar
The Old Church Restaurant & Bar Review
From the high-vaulted ceiling to the overly ornate fittings, this restaurant (a converted church) is a stunner. Sit on red velvet upholstered chairs by an open fire and gaze at the massive chandelier while waiting for your meal of vanilla and honey glazed duck breast with Hawke's Bay potatoes. Sweet and sinful temptations include cheesecake with passionfruit sorbet, cointreau soaked oranges, and raspberry sauce. Hallelujah!
