"Nice Staff / Good Location / Very well The location is good and the staff were very helpful and friendly. The apartment was well maintained and very clean and contemporary. I would recommend the Quest in Napier 100%

Diva is a bit of a landmark in Havelock North and has evolved from it's rough-and-ready beginnings to a sophisticated bar and bistro that wouldn't be out of place if transplanted to Parnell Rise or Ponsonby Road. Today, there are intimate booths, white tabled-clothed dining along with the wrap-around bar and outdoor 'look-at-me' area to take in the last of the day's sun. The food is surprisingly good sourced from local producers and the beers and wines are top class. A little on the pricey side considering you can get pretty much the same quality for $5-10 less within walking distance. But, really, you're there to be seen. The place is on the Havelock strip so can get a bit rowdy. Just plan your escape route for when the cougars come hunting!

unfortunately I am disappointed with this restaurant because I bought a $50 voucher last August for my parents and then walking past the restaurant a month or so later saw it was closed down, what bugs me is they had my parents number and didn't bother to ring them and tell them to use their voucher before closing down, now I can't get my money back :( not happy at all

My continuing search for good coffee in Napier found me at Devine. At last I can report that the coffee was very very good. Havana coffee! There are gluten free options here and good seating. The outdoor seats are in a bit of a wind tunnel though and the tables are small with only enough room for one setting which makes four at a table out in the sun very tricky to negotiate. Bigger square tables anyone? Some occasions have seen me wrestling in the wind tunnel as salt and pepper shakers, serviettes, knives and forks went flying. What lets down Devine is the 'service'. Hospitality Association really need to look at these folks. Once waited 45 minutes in an empty cafe for a panini. The staff on that day spoke no English at all and appeared to have been hired on looks alone. If you want your food in a hurry, don't order from the cabinet, order from the uncovered plates of cake on the counter (if you dare). The 'iced' coffee is not recommended- not very iced (the milk was warm) and no coffee as far as I could tell. There is one guy there whose sole job appears to be to fill glasses with water... all good in the summer heat but when there are no (ahem) facilities in this cafe, your long wait may be an excruciating one. Not a place for groups and for those in a hurry, not an option.

Only Heineken Bar in the Hawkes Bay! Amazing Italian food and coffee to match. They use Bay Espresso coffee beans. Top wine list with many of the little local vinyards featured.
