Owned for 15 months by artist Lou Lou and her business partner Deane, ‘Lou Lou At The Beach’ is a perfectly positioned, cafe by day, and restaurant by night, with a spectacular outlook to Waiheke Island. Previously an over-the-top ‘gallery type’ haven for Lou Lou’s very bright art and ceramics, the decor was not for the faint hearted. In fact, for most, it was enough to put you off a good meal. That said, the food wasn’t much better; an eclectic mix of anything from Mexican fare to apple crumbles...but now things have radically changed!
