Milk and Honey — Restaurant in North Island

Milk & Honey, located on Victoria University Kelburn's campus, is a delightful spot that balances a vibrant atmosphere with a cozy ambiance. While it can get a bit noisy due to the constant buzz of students and staff meeting up, it never feels overwhelmingly loud. This makes it a great spot for a casual lunch meeting or a relaxed catch-up with friends. The menu offers a nice variety of sandwiches, all of which come with a side of exceptionally crispy and flavorful chips. These are a perfect option for lunch, providing a satisfying and tasty meal. Whether you're a fan of classic combinations or more adventurous flavors, there's likely something on the menu that will appeal to your taste. The staff are incredibly friendly and create a welcoming environment that makes you feel right at home. Their attentive service adds to the overall positive experience of dining here. One thing to keep in mind is that Milk & Honey closes by 2:30 pm from Monday to Friday, so plan your visit accordingly. Despite the early closing time, it's well worth a visit for a delicious lunch and a pleasant atmosphere. I always look forward to going there, and it remains one of my favorite...

Absolutely unacceptable experience. I’ve been a loyal customer at Milk & Honey for a long time, but this visit was truly upsetting.

This kind of behavior is disrespectful and unprofessional. I used to enjoy coming here, but after this, I feel hurt, angry, and completely let down. Never...

Definitely a 5 star rating for Good Chemistry! Tim and his team were just the best at our sons recent wedding reception. Wedding catering - the food was fantastic, and beautifully served. The venue was perfect for a mid-sized reception. But I have given Good Chemistry a 5 star rating mostly because nothing was too much trouble for Tim - his calm, friendly personality ensured a smooth and enjoyable experience - right from the set-up the night before, and during the reception. And the next morning! Everything was packed up for us, and ready to go (including the leftover food and wine) - thank you so much - you guys are superb at what you do (and totally recommended to anyone looking for...
