Foxy's Cafe provide a good range of meals including take aways. Freshly brewed coffee with muffins and cakes can also be found here.
They also supply freshly made bread rolls to infotrack for the Routeburn Trail guided walk.

This place is a breath of fresh air at what seems like the end of the world. After the long drive up to Glenorchy, and so often it is cold here, so nice to find such a treasure. Only about 4 tables inside, and fine weather dining outside, it is cosy and snug.
Really nice decor with old records and an old player, a fire, and art on the walls.
Favorite Dish: They serve real nice food and coffee. Other drinks too of course, but I'm a coffee addict and that's most important to me :-)

Dining is available from the fully licensed Rod and Rucksack Restaurant and café at the Glen Roydon Lodge.
The bar is the perfect place to settle in for an evening refreshment. The complex also has a full booking service for all the local activities.
The cafe was totally packed with tourists and locals, and staff were cheery and efficient.
Favorite Dish: I totally recommend the coffee and walnut slice, caramel-apricot fudge, lollie cake, and vege toasted sandwiches.
Great to stop and have a cuppa here before continuing the drive back to Queenstown, if you've been out to Paradise and back.

The mountains are gorgeous, no matter what the weather. Glenorchy is away from the rat race and a very special place. Maoris of course were here first, but the first European settlers arrived in 1862...

My day in the valleys around Glenorchy was truly uplifting. The drive to Glenorchy from Queenstown is a treat in itself with some great views of Lake Wakatipu, but it is the Rees and Dart valleys...
