Starfish and other local cafes and eateries still open

Darren from Thorndon

Hi everyone - went out to dinner tonight, and it was, apart from the locust swarm at New World, a bit of a desolate place around our neighbourhood.

But the team at Starfish were open, and even fully kitted out with gloves and masks to ensure they keep delivering their same high standard to customers.

I'm sure that businesses like this, Lunchbox, Home Cafe, Mariluca, Mojo and others around will be impacted pretty heavily by many of the Government Agencies and businesses now working from home. So if any of us locals can venture out - ringing in advance and getting takeaway if you so desire - it will make sure that these great local eateries and venues are still there when we get through this nasty COVID virus.
