Hastings Food and Wine

Experience the freshest produce from the Hastings soil to your plate, quality meat from the pastoral hinterland and the freshest seafood from the Bay's glistening waters. The result is distinctly Hawke's Bay; lively, fresh and prepared by top national and international chefs.

The area showcases over 40 wineries, from small and boutique to major operations. Most have cellar door tastings and many offer alfresco dining to complement the experience.

Hastings is also home to many artisan food producers - from ostrich to chocolates, gourmet meat to cheeses. Grab a map and spend a day sampling our gastronomic delights, or get a group together and go on a food and wine tour. Alternatively, visit the Hastings Farmers Market to experience them all in one place. Warning: prepare to indulge!
