Furry guests now welcome!
Vivace is now officially pet-friendly in its bar and restaurant! You can enjoy coffee, cocktails, or a relaxed meal with your well-behaved dogs by your side. Next time you visit, bring your pup along and make it a true family outing!
DeBretts Kitchen has undergone a vibrant transformation and now welcomes you as Vivace Restaurant & Bar at Hotel DeBrett!
It's a fresh new chapter that blends boutique elegance with the spirited flavours Vivace has been celebrated for since the 1990s. Still perched on Level 1 of the iconic Hotel DeBrett, Vivace carries forward its legacy of exceptional cuisine, warm hospitality, and stylish ambiance. The reimagined menu features a contemporary New Zealand–European twist, crafted for sharing and paired with expertly mixed cocktails and a thoughtfully curated wine list.
Whether you're stopping by for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or indulging in their signature 1920s-inspired High Tea, you'll be greeted by the same friendly team and enveloped in the art deco charm that defines the space. By day, the glass-roofed atrium floods the restaurant with natural light; by night, it transforms into a cosy haven under the stars—perfect for relaxed dining, fine wines, and attentive service.
For special celebrations or intimate gatherings, Vivace offers semi-private dining areas that provide a sense of exclusivity while keeping you connected to the vibrant energy of the main restaurant and atrium.
Park for $2.50 per hour, to a maximum of $10.50 on evenings and weekends at the Victoria St car park. Find out more.
