Me and my whānau 4 adults, 3 kids after staying in Awhitu popped in here on our way home for lunch. Spur of the moment because we were starving and ended up being one of the best eats we’ve had. Service was amazing. We were seated immediately, staff were attentive and friendly. All up we ordered the steak, the lamb shank, the seafood platter, burger, fried chicken and garlic bread. Food portions were awesome, we were given extra food, lamb shank and garlic bread. All the food was fantastic, same calibre as lone star and goode brothers. Ordered some cocktails and daiquiri as well, which were pretty cheap and yummy! Really enjoyed our last minute call in here and kids had a nice small area to play outside and stretch the legs. Absolutely loved this place and would definitely come again. Well worth!
We had lunch here but sadly the diningnRoom is not setup for walk in diningnThere was one guy run off his feet serving drinks, taking lunch orders then delivering meals. He was not coping,nhowever we did patiently wait about 25nmins to be able to order drinks.nLunch was then ordered & delivered , the meals were nicely cooked & well presented.nFinally we were asked to move on because we had been there too long !!nWell if the service was provided in an appropriate time we would have been & gone.nIf you choose to go here the meals are very good but check the wait time for service first.
Come for a bottomless brunch, was told we could only have an alcoholic drink every 15 minutes even though it’s bottomless drinks!? Nothing underlining that so was bad from the start, got to choose 3 dishes and had 3 small pieces of each thing I ordered, 9 small pieces of food,the cocktails they made were weak with no alcohol, mate went through all 6 and felt absolutely fine, we then switched to beer as we knew there would be actually alcohol in there only to be served old dead lifeless beer which made everyone throw up. Shocking experience and hope they don’t do it anymore had mates booked for later that day but told them not to come, $70 for 6 non alcoholic drinks and 9 pieces of food, mean as not
I stayed for the weekend and had a great experience, the staff are very nice and welcoming with friendly service and the food they have is amazing, one of the best steak meals I've had in ages, rooms and the upstairs are currently being renovated and when that is finished it'll be even better, if I find myself up north again I'll definitely be staying again
Perfect country pub. 55 mins lovely drive from Newmarket. Laid back atmosphere, full choice of beers and counter food was outstanding. Staff a credit to the place. I'll be back
