The Queen Charlotte
About
The Queen Charlotte, on North Island, is a restaurant in the Marlborough Region. First-time visitors should expect a restaurant rooted in the Marlborough area rather than a city-centre dining room.
Guests rate it 4.8 out of 5 from 130 reviews, a record built over a substantial number of visits. Auckland, Wellington, Rotorua, Taupo, Hamilton, Tauranga, Napier and New Plymouth are the main centres travellers use as bases when touring the island. Reaching the restaurant from those towns means covering distance, so it suits a stop on a longer drive rather than a quick detour.
New Zealand cooking features lamb, dairy and seafood, including green-lipped mussels, bluff oysters and crayfish. Seasons here run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August. The temperate maritime climate keeps summers mild, and snow rarely settles at low altitude in winter.
Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast.
