Breakers Cafe & Bar, Gisborne

Breakers Café and Bar is a privately run and rapidly expanding chain of innovative and successful hospitality outlets. The success of Breakers has revolved around its core brand values and strong operational procedures.

The first Breakers outlet was founded in Napier in 1997 by owners Mark and Penny Burt. The concept of speed, value for money and relaxed “ego-centric” dining was still in its infancy; however a demand from consumers to determine their own hospitality experience was clearly a powerful pre-emptive need at the time, as it still is today.
