Confirmed by the venues themselves

Scoozi Woodfire Pizza in Mariners Mall does woodfired pizza and pasta to take away, at lunch and again from 5pm, Monday to Saturday. Toastie Lords on London Quay is built for it — toasties in a bag, 7am to 3pm. Subway Picton is on Auckland Street by the terminal, and the Picton Village Bakkerij does pies, sandwiches and packed lunches.

Fish and chips

Picton has fish-and-chip shops that locals name readily — Paperfish and Kiwi Takeaways among them — but neither publishes its own details online where we can check them, so they are listed by name only until someone confirms hours and address at the counter. If you run one of them, tell us.

Everything here comes from the venues' own published details, checked 5 September 2026. Hours and status on the cards below are live.
