The Dairy - Great Barrier Island

I highly recommend this restaurant! We visited for dinner and ordered the fondue and poutine. The two ladies behind the counter were fantastic and very helpful with our orders. The fondue was delicious, although they had turned the flame up too high, which caused it to burn a little. The poutine, however, was unforgettable. The gravy was incredibly flavorful and there was plenty of it, so the potatoes were generously coated. The cheese curds melted perfectly, and the brisket on top was incredibly tender. We’ll definitely be back for more poutine!

For all cheese enthusiasts out there, this place is a must-try! The toasts and buns are perfectly crisped to perfection. I absolutely love the Mr. Pickle! I just wish they offered even more pickles!

Looking for a new dessert place and came here on a Saturday night. <br/ Wasn’t too sure what kind of desserts they would have but as soon as I saw their dessert section I knew that I’d made a good choice.<br/ We ordered the Apple Churro and Toasted Brioche S’mores. <br/ Bother we’re AMAZING and would definitely come back to try their savoury dishes as well. <br/ Highly recommend coming here on a date after dinner since you sit outside and has a nice atmosphere. <br/ Staff were really lovely and friendly too: <br/

My second visit here and I loved it more than the first! the first time I came I got chocolate ice cream and two chocolate cookies which was just too much but this time I tried the mint ice cream and chocolate peanut butter cookies with candy floss! The candy floss was more Persian style than your typical store bought stuff and it was all the better for it. The choc peanut butter cookies could have done with a bit more peanut butter flavour which is the only reason why I’m not giving this a 5/5 stars.

Ordered the Brioche s’mores for dessert and oh my goodness it was amazing. The perfect dessert for the cold season, so warm and toasty. The brioche has a beautiful crunch and the inside has warm banana and caramel popcorn! The drizzle of dark chocolate was the perfect compliment to tie everything together, sweet but not sickly. A very beautiful dessert, can’t wait to come back and have it all over again!
