The Milk Churn

Also known for its yummy pizzas, this place has a great ice cream selection. It’s hard to choose a flavour from kiwi favourite Tip Top or the luxury Kapiti ice cream, I suggest grabbing a cone and wandering down the main street to stop and enjoy in the park.

Mmm gourmet pizzas at The Milk Churn are simply yum, and they often change up their menu while keeping the tasty classics. The Bacon, Asparagus and Wild Mushroom pizza is delicious or if you want a bit of heat, try the Spicy Mexican pizza. If you’ve still got room, finish off the meal with a gourmet Kapiti icecream or a fancy sundae.

So this is a pizza place but the pizzas aren’t heavy or greasy - think nice, crispy thin bases and you can get them in small, medium or large so you don’t have to go overboard. Try the classic Margarita or the yummy Vesuvio - pepperoni, olives, sundried tomatoes and mushroom. They also have some delicious salads if you need some more veggies on your plate.

What is better for dessert than an ice-cream? Choose from a classic Tip-Top cone or have an over the top ice-cream sundae dotted with nuts, smothered in sauce and spiked with wafers. Try a fresh out of the oven lemon meringue tart or grab a slice of cake, also made fresh that day. Easy on the budget and delicious in the tummy.

This gourmet pizza place in Carterton is not to miss. Made the authentic way, the four cheese pizza is a deliciously decadent choice or opt for the classic Margarita. They also have amazing calzones, ribs and lasagne dishes. The service is very good and they pay attention to detail, making sure you have water and everything you need.
