The meals at Leigh Sawmill were really great – however the rude customer service we received over shadowed our meals. The young waitress was from overseas and although she could not understand our thick kiwis accents was still really pleasant. However as we were running late from Auckland and the tone changed when we arrived. We were celebrating my sister and brother in laws wedding anniversary. Meals came out to our table in no particular order, we were not asked which meal belonged to which person they were slid across the table to us by one very disgruntled waitress. When I did mention how rude she was being her attitude became worse toward us. We would not dine there again based on the poor customer service. All credit to the Chef as our meals were great.

Great food, we had the gratuitous pizza among others and it was FANTASTIC! 12 gauge beer knocked my socks off while tasting awesome. Great atmosphere, we stuck around for an event called house arrest with Thane Kirby and it was the best night I’ve had for ages! Accommodation on site too so I could just stumble to bed. Beats going into town any day!

Fabulous!! Amazing setting! the atmosphere is so cool, been here a few times and each time we receive awesome friendly service, a fantastic selection of beverages and the meals are great.
I always find food portions more than generous.. and the pizzas are delish!!
Nothing better than going there over summer and can chill in the backyard in the sun with a beer after a day at the beach! Last time I went we stayed for an evening gig one of the sawmill selaktaz parties and it was an awesome night!! We will always continue to return back every time we want to venture out of the city hustle bustle.

seems a common theme here, we were charged $250 for dinner for two, two pizzas $12.50 each, one dessert at $15 and two drinks at $8 plus wedges $9, staff was over the top friendly and that was great but they had no idea what was going on with the invoice, ruined a great night, got to do better guys.

We were EXTREMELY dissapointed with our experience here.
The staff were rude and careless and we were charged for meals we didnt get.
Lack of choice on the lunch menu and over priced. Do not order the seafood platter! Very small.
A real shame as we travelled out of the way to eat here.

We have been many times and enjoyed our meal but we went recently and had to buy takeaways at Orewa on the way home as the meals were so small
