Diva bar and eatery is looking pretty swish thanks to new owner Carl Leipst's vision.
Carl took over the establishment three years ago and says the place was "in despair".
"We have changed nearly everything including the furniture, the bar top and the menu. We have, however, held onto most of the staff who have been amazing," Carl said.
Situated in the heart of Havelock North, Diva is well known for its diverse roles as a cafe, bar, restaurant and nightclub.
"We have rebranded but we knew how important it was to hold onto the name Diva. The name is well known throughout Hawke's Bay and in fact the country. It's a destination for visitors to come and relax with friends over a coffee or a glass of wine or beer, have a bite to eat or later in the evening have some fun with your friends.
"In the summer we love getting visitors from all over the country enjoying sitting outside on the street enjoying our beautiful sunshine."
