Tastiest food in town. 20-35 nzd for a main. I like the cheesy Cobb bread. it is enough for 2 people if you are not that hungry. Good old Irish vibe. Usually crowded and noisy.

On Saturdays until 12 o clock. Renata's desserts are the best. Sometimes you get wine sellers as well. Gourmet mushroom, high quality meat and fresh fish. The produce is not really cheap, but tastier than the supermarket. Try Biki's dumplings if you are in Gisborne on a Saturday.

4 min walking distance to my place, in the Ballance Village. By far the best food in town. Good coffee, a nice garden with trees to sit on a sunny day. Check their work hours to be sure if they are open or not. (They are not always open for dinners.) I love the way they cook, I love the produce they use. 25-35 for a mains. We usually share a fish for lunch. it is not like the cheap buttered fish you find everywhere in NZ. I just love it.

Parks & Nature
If you like walking, hiking and nature this is a must. This place makes me feel calm and peaceful. With the little lakes and different parcours, it's a nice way to spend a sunny Sunday. There is an entrance fee - please check their website.

Entertainment & Activities
Romantic movie theater with arty movies and average pizzas. But if the movie is good, and you pay a little bit extra for the wine, it provides a unique and cosy experience.

Drinks & Nightlife
Check their Facebook page. I think some days Biki will be there offering delicious food options as well. Or the Italian pizza guy will be making pizza.

Everything Else
This is a yoga studio. I'm like the walking advertisement for Reset. This place changed my life. It is on the upper floor of the Dome/PBC coffee. They have a 29 nzd for a week promotion. (For new people, as many classes as you want.) Different yoga teachers, different types of classes. If you've never done yoga, you wanted to try but you are to shy, just let me know, I'll be happy to help. (A lot people are anxious about the yoga etiquette or going to a new place.)

They have 15 nzd introduction classes. If you had never tried a power plate class, you should give it a try. Probably the fastest way to lose weight, also since the classes are 30 min, it is a very optimized training. No previous experience is necessary. (I started in September to lose weight before summer, so I am not an expert. But I am glad I did.)
