The Mussel Pot

The giant mussel shells on the restaurant roof tip you off to what’s on the menu. This is the place for fresh green-lipped mussels, whether you like them steamed, marinated, battered, grilled, steamed, or served in a chowder. This restaurant is located in Havelock, 33km (20 miles) west of Picton. It gets packed for lunch in the peak summer season, so reservations are recommended.
