Had dinner here during our stay at Twizel!
The food here was really good! We loved the way the salmon was cooked. Perfectly cooked!! They had a pickle/vegemite-ish veg that went so well with the hummus and salmon!
The Saffron Risotto was our favourite! It was a simple dish, but the risotto was coo
Visited Poppies last night with a group of friends. The food was delicious especially the soup, local salmon and home made ravioli. The price was good too but the best part was the warm welcome and helpful service and advice from the staff. One even got her car and drove me to the place I was lookin
Went out for a meal, was fantastic. Great atmosphere tasty food. Amazing presentation and something new. A twist on apple tart. Covered in white chocolate with creamy centre and apple purée inside sitting on tart. Almost to pretty to eat but oh soooooo good
The venison was incredible and the lamb was even better. Highly recommend.
Dropped in during a road trip. Good menu selection. Ordered the Poppies Burger, which was an excellent range of tastes, and it came with a good pile of fries. Good quick service, the coffee was also nice, and I hit the road again feeling like I'd made a good choice.
Highly recommended this place… such nice dinner we have. Lovely service.
Second night here really lively and busy which shows how popular it is both nights the food was excellent. Nice choice of beer and wine. As food is cooked from fresh don’t expect food being quick but that is how it should be. One big moan is wifi you get a voucher and it lasted 7 minutes before it w
We ordered the steak with veggies and one of the local beers (Speitz - spelling?) and everything was delicious. Highly recommend. Cost was 200 New Zealand for 4 persons and 4 drinks.
Great dining option in Twizel after lots of high country exploration. I enjoyed my very fresh locally farmed salmon (though doing it over would ask for the sauce on the side if trying to be healthy). Husbands lamb curry was even better. Friendly services makes you feel at home.
Thoroughly enjoyed our late lunch at Poppies in Twizel! The service & staff were delightful. Food was beautifully presented & very tasty. Perfect summer lunch!
My biggest regret of our two weeks in NZ is not eating at this restaurant both nights we were in Twizel! Seriously, there's nothing wrong with eating at the same place consecutive nights when there are so few options in town, the price point is pretty similar, and one option is clearly the best. We
Located off the highway in the little town of Twizel.
Was an excellent meal
The lamb curry was cooked perfectly, was surprising to find such nice pappadam and tasty curry.
The meat was soft and succulent. It melts in your mouth
The salmon was really good. Your fork pokes through and through. Yet i
One of the most popular restaurant in Twizel single restaurant options here are quite limited. Ordered fillet steak, pork belly, pasta and bean burrito. Steak was okay but pork belly was a little hard to chew and even cut. Pasta and bean burrito were good. Sticky date pudding was nice as well! Servi
Very welcoming and one of the best food I had in NZ in 2 years. Thank you again. I recomand the poppies special dessert.
Why is no one talking about the venison pie??
So returned to Poppies after my last visit four years ago with my partner and we still love it. It's a quirky but simple café that serves great food..pretty sure my salad came out of their garden that morning. Staff were friendly, quick and efficient. A
Very decent fare in a town without a traffic signal. Expect more than a ham sandwich and you will be pleasantly delighted. Good food. Good beer. Come for starters and dessert, or delve into the mains.
Easy to find parking, good food, friendly staff, very clean toilets. Good place to chill and relax over breakfast. Pancakes come with toasted banana which were delicious! Peppermint water was a nice touch too. Roasted mushrooms (that came with the breakfast platter) were delicious too!
