Quails Nest Eatery

Quails Nest is worth the stop for the view alone! The setting is incredible, the decor is modern, and the surroundings are so peaceful. I really enjoyed the food, my bagel & fries were amazing. Can't wait to come back and try more. The only thing that I didn't like were the menus. Everything else was so beautiful, which made the menu stick out like a sore thumb. They are so plain in black and white on A4 paper inside a clear plastic slip. They need to be more compact, i.e., have separate morning and evening menus. It also needs re organizing as they are overwhelming and hard to read. It would be worth getting a designer to help with this, to make the menus as beautiful as the rest of the place! EDIT: I have now also tried the smashed avo which I would not recommend. Its far too tangy, the flavours in the avocado are very overpowering without anything to balance them out.

Outstanding service. We hadn’t booked but were offered a coffee & place to sit while a table was being sorted out as soon as one was available. The lunch meal was delicious & the whole experience was memorable. Thank you guys. You will see us again for sure.

Not much vegan food but the staff were accommodating. Great atmosphere. The menu was busy and confusing surprising, given the high cost.

Super easy to get to from the city by car Vibes are on point and the owner’s really nice. Food’s great value, and the view just makes it better would come back for sure.

Where cosy and sophistication meet. Our plates range from small, to large with plates and platters to suit the modern diner at the newest destination dining spot in New Plymouth since opened in December 2020. Our atmosphere is homely with a spritz of class with our menu to match. With our comfortable seating options having a glass of wine to mull over the view at sunset is what we encourage. Especially in summer on our outdoor 100m2 covered deck area, or basque in the sun on our lawn with some friends for cocktails and lawn games. Even retire to our plush outdoor seating on the lawn to soak up your experience in a paradise not to far from the suburban area's of New Plymouth. For bookings over 10, we ask that you contact us directly to ensure we can provide the best experience possible while dining with us

Beautiful venue. Amazing food. We really enjoyed the corn waffle and focaccia and hash brown sticks. So yummy. Great service and gorgeous views over the bush.

We had a staff dinner here. Food and drinks were all outstanding. A busy night, so service was a little slow, but still pleasant and professional. We requested dining on the deck and it was chillier than expected for December, but heaters and blankets were available. We had a wonderful night and would definitely dine here again.
