Casa Publica

About

Be transported back to South America at Casa Publica, home to expert bartenders who specialise in rum and craft cocktails, and an exclusive food menu.

Story

Think back to a time when prohibition ruled over America. Dark times for some. For others, a time of opportunity and prosperity. One who seized the moment was Mr Hugo A Chile.

Hugo was born 27 June, 1905. He was only 15 when the prohibition came into effect, about the time he was taking over his fathers mini-home distillery. Originally learning his craft to support the now fatherless family, Hugo created unthinkable profits by running rum to LA. Back then this journey would take 9 weeks each way, but after the third journey he was able to buy a lorry. After the fifth run he had his distribution network established.

He never looked back.

When you enter Casa Publica, you're entering Hugo's world. Come, sit and savour the taste, the obsessions, and the lifestyle of a man whose time begged the bending of rules, a little ruthlessness and a lot of rum.

I’ve been once for dinner with some friends. The cocktails are amazing , best ones I’ve had in town. The guacamole is really tasty and it’s a great choice that you can choose not to have chili on it as they make it just in front of you. The rest of the food though, not so happy about it as everything is spicy and there’s no other option. I ordered the calamari skewer and asked if can be not spicy, without chili. They said that yes they were going to remove the big full chili that came with it and yes they did it but they didn’t say that the marinade of the calamari is already spicy As well as the beans that came as a side with it. Not happy with the food option but happy with the desert and cocktails.

Fantastic bar with 180 different rums. Knowledgeable staff that can guide you through your tasting journey. Great guacamole that is prepared at your table. Highly recommend

Great service. The best sweet potato (sweet potato tomales) and a beautiful smoked flavor for the grilled corn. I have seen cheaper but never a better flavor.

Ribs!!! We were staying in Christchurch for the night and went for a wonder around town, ended up popping in here for dinner and YUM! If you're a fan of ribs then this is a great place. A pretty good serving of big pork ribs dripping in sauce (the way it's meant to be). Service was decent too for a busy night too. If we were lo all we would be back. It's a touch expensive but nice on a special occasion or if you're passing through like us
