Star and Garter Hotel

Last Friday 23rd May 2025 the staff service was welcoming, warm, and hospitable so please give them a raise because we visited the nearby area from Auckland but didn't feel like strangers. Loved the amazing food and atmosphere made us wanna stay longer. Had an awesome time there. Malo

Great place to eat. Fantastic service and food was devine. Pork hock is amazing! Partner had 1kg Mussels which she said were lovely and tasty. Can be a bit hot inside to eat in summer, could do with some ceiling fans. Other than that will be back again.

The pubs sits on the main road going through Coromandel. Staff were lovely. Comfy chairs in the front area to sit and people watch. Great deals on Sundays with $12 pizzas.

We ate here two nights in a row during an early May visit to the Coromandel Peninsula. The historic 2-story building is the star of the business district, for sure, a charmingly restored old place that is very popular with tourists and locals alike. We sat at a table by the bar and ordered Tuatara hazy IPAs and the 309 pizza: pulled pork, smoked bacon, apples and apple syrup, which was quite tasty. We finished with Banoffee Pie, a yummy dessert of little baby pielets of butterscotch in crust, with walnuts we think and butterscotch ice cream. I also ordered a glass of Brookfields Syrah, which was delicious. The pizza, beer, service, and ambience were all so good that we changed our original plan to go to a different place the 2nd night. We came back here instead and ordered another pizza, the Buffalo Road, which had brisket, smoked bacon, onions, mushrooms, and chipotle aioli. It was yummy! More beer, more wine, more Banoffee, another good time!

Lovely, local restaurant with great food and at a reasonable price. The steak was excellent and the chicken wings. All the family enjoyed their dinner!
