Harvest @ The Marlborough

This remarkable culinary destination, overseen by owner Angela Dillon, is set on a sprawling 6.5-hectare property just outside of Blenheim that boasts a vineyard, an extensive vegetable garden and picturesque park-like vistas. While the team has a passion for showcasing the very best of the region’s offerings, what makes Harvest truly special is its welcoming atmosphere, inviting both locals and visitors to indulge in a high-end dining experience typically reserved for guests of luxury properties. The menu features a tantalising array of dishes, many prepared over charcoal, enhancing the flavours of premium local ingredients. Enjoy succulent lamb braised and served with a honey mustard and salsa verde, or gratinated Mills Bay mussels with delicious cornichon within the gratin, or roasted estate cabbage with chive cream, pangratto and sage butter, all crafted into vibrant seasonal plates that celebrate the bounty of the area. With a commitment to quality and its beautiful surroundings, this is a must-visit for anyone seeking a taste of casual-luxury dining in a memorable setting. A place that beautifully combines history, elegance and exceptional flavours.
