Fantastic fish and chips. A no-frills space, but the fish literally comes off a boat outside, into the shop - fresh and delicious. You can eat there on rickety picnic tables or wander down the street for a couple of minutes and eat in the park right on the water.

Now called Bar Centrale (but for some reason defaults to its old name here?) A really fun spot in a heritage building joined to Clarence. Strong Mediterranean vibe, great food and cocktails.

All the mall basics but with quite a decent restaurant area (a normal food court is inside). Burger Burger, Izakai (mentioned seperately - it's very good) a few pub-style places. Good spot if you want to take the kids out for lunch or dinner or have a decent bite after shopping

We are yet to eat here but have heard very good things. Relatively upmarket compared to a lot of the more casual places at the Mount, calls itself a wine bar but has lovely food. Book ahead.

The Mount beach is a stunning white sand beach, right across the road from shops, cafes and restaurants. Several playgrounds nearby, and the loop around the base of the mount is a must-do - climb to the summit if you are keen! Head down to the Omanu or Tay Street parts of the beach if you want a quieter experience with easier parking.

Good little beachside cafe, takeaway coffee and ice creams or eat-in at the cafe side. The beach opposite is great - there are toilets, safe road crossings and much easier parking than at the main beach at the foot of the Mount.
