Captains Daughter - Havelock

Great place to come in from the cold with an open fire creating an extremely cosy atmosphere. Really hospitable staff. Very accommodating. Dog Friendly too! Food was served so quickly and was beautiful! Muscles were a good size, cooked perfectly with the most beautiful Thai Green sauce. Battered Fish and Chips with salad was a very generous serving. The salad with the Fish and Chips was perfect with a delicious dressing. Such good value for money.

From the moment you step into this charming restaurant, you'll be transported to a world of delicious, fresh seafood and warm hospitality. One of the standout dishes at Captain's Daughter is the scampi in garlic butter. Cooked to perfection, these succulent shrimp are perfectly complemented by the rich, garlicky sauce. And if you're looking for something light and refreshing to balance out all that seafood goodness, be sure to try the salad it's fresh, crisp, and bursting with flavor. Of course, no meal at Captain's Daughter would be complete without a refreshing beverage to wash it down. I highly recommend the Pilsner it's crisp, clean, and perfectly complements the flavors of the seafood. But perhaps the best part of dining at Captain's Daughter is the atmosphere.

Lovely lively restaurant in Havelock. We visited on two different occasions (dinner and late lunch) and were greeted by very welcoming staff. Sunday dinner, restaurant was very busy, staff very accommodating and found us a table, explained food will be a while but please have a drink. Our food choices arrived in good time, very delicious and plentiful. We opted for small Chowder and Summer Salad with Halloumi. Late lunch was offered snack menu as just missed end of lunch service. Plenty of choice on menu, again served very quickly and good amount of food. We opted for Green Lip mussels in Green Curry Sauce and local fish and chips. Waitress very knowledgeable about the wine choices on offer. Definitely a good recommendation in the area, we would suggest making a reservation for evening service.

A great place to break the journey between Nelson and Blenheim. Havelock is beaut little spot with a bit to see and do and some great places to eat. Being coastal tucking into some local seafood is recommended. We had the mussels and a fish burger. It was a busy lunch time. The food arrived fairly quickly and was delicious. Nothing to fault. Bookings recommended.

I would only stop for a coffee in Havelock and had a good surprise finding the Captains Daughter. Excellent ambience and food! I had the NZ Seafood Selection, then the cappuccino I was craving for.
