14 | Craggy Range: MCL Construction VITICULTURE Craggy Range Restaurant is located within an architecturally designed rotunda-shaped building. The restaurant development follows the upgrade and expansion of its kitchen which was completed late last year, to handle both the existing year-round demand and the upcoming opening of the new eatery. Both the kitchen and restaurant upgrades are being led by main contractor, Hastings construction company MCL. Craggy Range executive director David Peabody Jnr says the original restaurant was previously upgraded in 2018 when internationally experienced executive chef Casey McDonald joined the team. “That was wonderful but we outgrew it. The restaurant has been full-bore doing lunches and dinners seven days a week for years – obviously ignoring covid – and the kitchen which was in a very small area, became inadequate,” David says. In addition to regular dining, Craggy Ranges hosts weddings and events. Craggy Range Restaurant is located within an architecturally designed rotunda-shaped building with a cone roof that resembles the inside of a wine barrel. “We’ve got a wonderful team of chefs; the idea was to open the new space as a different offering so it’s separate to downstairs.” At the 2024 Cuisine Good Food Awards, Craggy Range Restaurant was named Winery Restaurant of the Year and awarded two Hats Interior & Exterior Tiling | Waterproofing Large format tile specialist | Pool Coping | Stonemasonry Exterior cladding in stone Proudly Supporting Craggy Range Get In Touch 027 619 9080 mastertileandstonenz@gmail.com Follow us on Instagram! @master_tile_and_stone Electrical Specialists in Hawke’s Bay Need electrical services?
