Good food, a riverside setting and plenty of Gizzy personality.


Dinner plans don’t get much easier than this.


Gisborne has discovered a rather clever way to solve one of life’s great domestic arguments.


What’s for dinner?


Instead of debating the merits of pizza, burgers, noodles or whatever happens to be lurking in the fridge, we simply park a collection of food trucks beside the river and let everyone fend for themselves.


Welcome to Dinner by the River, where Marina Park becomes Gisborne’s most delicious outdoor dining room.


No bookings.

No dress code.

No arguments about which restaurant to choose.


Just independent food vendors, a relaxed riverside atmosphere and the very real possibility of eating more than you originally intended.


All in the interests of supporting local businesses, naturally.
