Batch Winery - Thomas's Batch, Waiheke Island

We hiked the Whakanewha Regional Park and stopped off at the Bach along the way. We ordered a high tea each, which included a glass of Rosé. The high tea consisted of a selection of dips, chutneys and hummus, breads, crackers, olives, cheese, nuts, chicken pie, salmon, meatloaf, slaw salad and a pavlova. The chicken pie was delicious and how a pie should taste. The pastry was flakey and not overcooked. The filling was equally as delicious and worked so well. The salmon tasted was cooked to perfection, it wasn't over cooked or undercooked - it was just right. We also really appreciated the care and thought put into the pavlova, the sweet rhubarb on top added a pleasant twist to our kiwi classic. The ratios of everything was perfect and accompanied the creme and the meringue perfectly. This was Sunday afternoon at approx 4pm please give our thank you to the chef on duty.

Great location. At the top of a hill and you can see the coast line with a view of Auckland City. Hummus on their cheese platter is really delicious. Bread is warm and crispy outside, grapes are fresh. I will definitely go back if I have a chance to Waiheke again.

We came here for dinner, ordered smoked salmon mousse for starter and pan seared beef sirloin. We were pretty pleased with the food! My beef was how I usually like it, medium rare and crispy fries complemented the whole experience. And of course cant pass trying their wine. Service was also pretty good! Love the view as well.
