Chelsea Sugar (NZ Sugar Company Ltd)

Great place for family activities: factory tour, walk, playground and cafe. Food was a bit pricey though, $30 for that fish n chips with only 1 fillet, same price for the chowder… Their desert on the other side made it up, reasonable price and huge portion, photo is the lamington. We would come back for a nice walk in summer but not the cafe

1 hour factory tour very nice experience, learning new knowledges from friendly tour lady. Good value for the price. All computer control inside factory.

Such a cute attraction! We didn't get the chance to take the full tour but we did do the free interactive exhibit and walk around the grounds. It's a beautiful location with a number of appealing activities. We will definitely be back to take a tour or a baking class! The factory smelled amazing!!

Totally worth the visit - stay for half the day and complete the very insightful tour, have morning tea or lunch after and let the kids play at the playground overlooking the gorgeous view of the city. My kids loved the interactive section within the visitors centre. Will definitely be back for a lamington as that sold out super quick today!

Great place to spend a few hours with the kids. We'd been looking forward to the tour since we booked and weren't disappointed. The whole operation is efficiently run and we were well looked after. Lots of interesting facts and sights and smells. Highly recommend the restaurant, although we only had coffees and cakes which were very nice. Some of the fastest service we've ever experienced, but they weren't super busy.
