ONE YEAR OF THE WORKS 🥂

Today marks one year since we took over The Works, and what a journey it has been. 💛

Stepping into a restaurant that already had a place in the Gisborne community was both exciting and a little daunting. Over the past year, we’ve learned, grown, faced challenges, celebrated successes and created so many memories along the way.

We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported us — our wonderful customers, our team, our suppliers, our friends and our wider Gisborne community.

Every booking, meal, recommendation, review and kind word has meant more to us than you know.

Thank you for welcoming us, supporting us and being part of our first year at The Works. 💛

Here’s to the first year of our journey — and to many more good meals, good people and great memories ahead. 🥂

With gratitude,
The Works Team
