Pepper Tree Restaurant and Bar

The restaurant had great reviews and I went in wanting to try the steak. Only after we sat down and ordered a drink did we realise that steak is available for dinner only. I then decided to order the Calamari. It was the best decision. I don't know how they fried it , however, it was done so well. And also the picked veggies tasted so good. The other option that seemed interesting was the beef tacos. Might try that another time. All the wait staff were courteous, and efficient. Even the little one. All the best

The restaurant has a beautiful beergarden under a truly impressive tree. We enjoyed excellent food mussels, lamb and salmon. The local light beer and the espresso coffee was not so good though.

The process for ordering your food and drinks is fantastic as you can order when you want them on a tablet. More restaurants should use this system. Food was delicious both the natural and battered oysters were superb!! and service was very quick and friendly. Will DEFINITELY be going there again.

We ordered the ribs, and they were incredibly tender with a savory BBQ sauce that was absolutely delightful. The oysters were fresh and flavorful—truly a treat! The calamari was soft, perfectly cooked, and delicious. The ambience stood out as the best among all the neighboring restaurants, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Overall, a solid 7.5/10!

Stopped for a late lunch on my way up the west road to Coromandel and out to Hahei. Ordered 1/2 kg of mussels, excited that they were from the area, and the fish and chips. The mussels were delicious, large, cooked perfectly, seasoned well, with a large lemon wedge and slice of fresh bread to dip in the sauce. Fish and chips were exquisite. Breading was crisp, fish was so soft and buttery it would fall apart, and chips were the perfect consistency. Also came with large lemon wedge and cup of tartar sauce. Tracy was my server, she was exceptional, kind, attentive, helpful. The outdoor seating was peaceful and spacious, I could seat myself wherever I liked.
