A food lovers mecca, The George boasts two award winning restaurants regarded both locally and internationally as the best in New Zealand.

Pescatore has a longstanding reputation as one of New Zealand's best contemporary dining experiences. Andrew Brown and his award winning chefs create fine Pacific Rim cuisine with a special emphasis on seafood. Seasonal 4-6 course degustation menus are matched with top vintages from Pescatore's outstanding wine list, honoured by Wine Spectator magazine as one of the most outstanding restaurant lists in the world. Pescatore's sleek sophisticated interiors overlooking Hagley Park create the perfect setting for a memorable evening. For the very best in intimate dining, Pescatore's adjoining private room is an ideal choice for an exceptional exclusive dining experience.

If you are looking for more casual dining, 50 On Park Restaurant and Bar combines innovative contemporary food, with the freshest flavours, the best local produce, and excellent wines. The stylish and chic interior with white leather chairs and striking onyx wall opens onto a private terrace for alfresco dining. Enjoy the relaxing ambience and exquisite cuisine for breakfast, lunch, dinner, coffee or cocktails. Menus change throughout the year to reflect the mood and trends of each season. Spring and summer bring delicate dishes with crisp vinaigrettes and aromatic herbs to refresh the palate, while autumn and winter's warming dishes are served with richer jus and sauces to satisfy heartier appetites.

Situated alongside the restaurant in the heart of the lobby you will find 50 on Park Bar, a friendly relaxing place to catch a coffee by day or a cocktail by night.
