    Toast & Oak
Description:

Situated in the original streets of Queenstown, Toast & Oak transports your senses to the tastes and smells of Europe. As you walk past, the warm glow above the street invites you in.

Inspired by nature's palette of warm, earthy hues and textures, the space echoes these familiar elements. It blends traditional European wine bar charm with a modern twist, creating an intimate, energetic, and inviting atmosphere that hums from day to night.

The design combines tradition with functionality, offering both private and open dining experiences. Bar seating provides views of the Remarkable hilltops and evening skies. The backlit Chef's Table, a centrepiece, offers a symphony for the senses orchestrated by the Head Chef.

At the heart of Toast & Oak lies its showpiece: the wine vault, filled with stories and experiences waiting to be discovered.

In essence, Toast & Oak is more than a wine bar; it's a sanctuary where flavours, ambiance, and hospitality converge to create memorable moments, whether you're savouring a glass of fine wine or indulging in a chef-inspired culinary masterpiece.
