A cosy and warm tavern with a very friendly and attentive bar tender. Glen makes everyone feel welcome and happily shows interest in his patrons.
Fire was roaring and the food was delish.
We ordered Surf and Turf along Smoked Chicken with Bacon and Crispy Noodles.
Both dishes were scrumptious. Complements to the chefs!

Food and service were on point! Stopped in a couple of times for dinner over the past couple of weeks with work mates and have left happy both times. I enjoyed the Surf & turf, while the others raved about the burgers, seafood chowder, pork belly bites etc. The fireplace was super inviting and kept the place nice and warm on the cold winter nights.

The food is awesome. There are new chefs and the pork belly bites are perhaps the best thing I've eaten at a pub in years. Great bands, great hospitality, awesome dumplings. Recommend!

My friends and I agreed to meet at this pub for a catch up on a weekday. Situated in the centre of rural township of Huapai, this old pub building has indoor - outdoor flow and a restaurant catering to a variety of dining preferences. Warm and friendly staff. Diverse clientele. A pleasant hospitality experience... Recommended!

Went for lunch and got lots of food at once and it was very busy as there was a band due to play. Was ready within 20 minutes and it was piping hot and delicious. Would highly recommend.

We were seated outside the tavern the whole time we were there and were abruptly cut off by a bartender without prior warning for "being too loud." It was allegedly a customer complaint, but we were not convinced as we were the only group of a darker skin tone than the rest who frequented the bar that day.

A proper pub with plastic seats and cold beer. Bonus beautiful garden you can drink in. Decent Guinness, ashtrays laid out on every table in the smoking area.

One of the friendliest bars I've ever been in on my travels around the world. Staff were nice and good at their job. The owner was a lovely lady. The place was clean and served excellent food. I would thoroughly recommend it to everyone passing through Huapai.

Was living in Auckland for over 30 years. But now live in the Naki....
So was my first visit. Lovely vibe. Friendly people and staff. Only stayed for one beer. And didn't have a meal. So hence the 4 stars.

Great pub meals, burgers are awesome, highly recommend the works burger.

The pub does show it's age, dating back to when smoking indoors was a thing, so there is still the lingering odour of ciggies, but the beer is cold and the food is good, so I can ignore that

We decided to stop off at Huapai Tavern for lunch on our way home from a night away, as it being Our 3 year wedding anniversary. THE STAFF: A+++ Friendly welcome at entry, Awesome Service, comfortable and inviting atmosphere. Big ups to the Chef & helping hands Seafood Chowder/Garlic bread & Crumbed Scallop meal was absolutely filling and so tasty, loved it! Quick to remedy our unfortunate mishap, as another patron stole our $20 from our machine in the gaming room, even though they didnt have too, much appreciated their hospitality and generous act.
Thank you for a memorable time that's for sure! We will be back!
