Sarah Mead says Hotel Nest is great for a meal, a glass of wine, or a beer. (6 months ago)
Wonderful new hotel has been beautifully re-imagined and re-designed (formerly this was the red eagle hotel building but thankfully Nest is far, far removed from that aesthetic). The interior is cool and elegant, the colourful awnings add personality, the staff is inviting, friendy and knowledgable about the food, wine and beer served.
The dining room is small and professionally run and currently selling amazing food matched by an accessible and interesting wine list, at a bargain – get in while they’re new, I’m sure prices will go up.
They’ve got a bisto menu too, nothing over about $18 and lots of great beers too, both on tap and in bottles.
Grab a 500m glass of hoegaarden (if you can lift it), sit on a street-side table and catch the afternoon sun rays – it’s a treat!
