Postmasters Kitchen + Bar

The most beautiful view of Arrowtown from seats of the restaurant. We tried sticky date pudding. It was fabulous. Homemade with heaps of date. Katrina served us well. She always wears a serene smile. She is a gem in Arrowtown and a great asset to the restaurant. Everyone loves her!

After a fun afternoon goldpanning just across the road, we stumbled across Postmasters. It looked so cute from the outside that we knew we had to try it. It was dinner time and we were starving, but we didn’t have a booking. Luckily, we had come quite early (around 5 PM), and they were able to fit us in. Inside, it was just as charming as it looked. We loved the cozy, welcoming vibe. The food absolutely blew us away, definitely a highlight of our Arrowtown trip. The garlic prawns were incredible, and I had a mojito mocktail that was simply divine. The service was equally amazing; everyone was so friendly and attentive. Couldn’t recommend this place more if you’re visiting Arrowtown.

I visited The Postmaster in Arrowtown and tried the sticky date pudding — and let me say, I always order sticky date pudding when it’s on the menu, so I don’t say this lightly: this was hands down the best I’ve ever had. It was served perfectly warm, with a beautifully crunchy exterior and a moist, sticky center that was absolute perfection. The caramel sauce and ice cream were the ideal pairing — a true symphony of flavor and texture. The staff were equally impressive, welcoming us with no reservation and making us feel right at home. The setting is charming and full of character, making the entire experience one to remember. Highly recommended — especially if you’re a dessert lover. Do not leave without trying that pudding!

Amazing restaurant (in a cute little village). The food was reaally great (and I’m saying that as a French), we ordered the fish of the day, the mussels, the risotto and the beef brisket, and all of us loved every bite of each meal. The desserts were okay. Might be expensive without First Table. Anyway I highly recommend it, we spend a really great evening in this restaurant :)

Had a late lunch here and the food was tasty! Good atmosphere amidst the old town setting.

Popped into the Postmasters for a lunch. It’s a cosy cafe with a rustic charm. The food was generally ok. The seafood stew was a little bland lacking a bit of spice or interesting flavour for my liking. While the venison ragu was hearty but not something to fill the heart. Overall a nice place for a spot of lunch but nothing to write home about, no pun intended ;)

Gorgeous meal at Postmasters while we were staying in Arrowtown this week. Each dish was perfect in flavour, portion size and price. The atmosphere is cosy and comforting and was exactly what we needed after a big day.

This place is so cozy and warm. Feels like home cook meals… yum 😋 (3pax lunch)
