Dinner Menu

Welcome To The Bistro

The Bistro is a family-owned, family run restaurant, and we love that we are able to provide Taupo locals and visitors alike with a Kiwi-style dining experience at a price everyone can afford.

The menus at The Bistro are created out of an appreciation for the ever-changing seasons. Our dishes take shape as seasonal ingredients become available – simple clean flavours from fresh local produce. We pair our integrity in the kitchen with relaxed and friendly service, giving our guests moments that will last a lifetime.

Keeping it simple but nice …
