Here are some of our favourite wineries & restaurants:
* St Claire Winery Restaurant: https://saintclair.co.nz/pages/vineyard-kitchen
* Wairau River Winery Restaurant: https://www.wairauriverwines.com/
* In Picton you must go to SISU, it is a wine bar/restaurant with one of the largest selections of wines we've ever seen and all available by the glass. The food is sharing plates and is amazing. Added bonus is you have a view of the beautiful Marlborough Sounds and the Picton Harbour.
* For a casual bite, Breakfast & Lunch then we recommend Seabreeze Cafe, this is located nest to SISU with the waterfront views
* If you fancy a small Irish pub then Seumus Irish Pub is a must: https://www.seumusirishbar.co.nz/
