Reviews of Garston Hotel and Cafe

Stopped by for lunch while on the road. We were surprised by the quality of the burgers and baked goods. We ordered a pumpkin soup that was very spicy. When we didn't finish it, the manager made a point of apologizing, offering to add more coconut milk to cool it off and eventually refunded the price of the soup. I can't think of the last time we had such customer-centric service!

Slice of history, what a neat spot. Best coffee I've had in the South Island so far on this trip0. Outstanding team behind the counter. We've changed our return plans so we can visit again on the way home.

Stopped for a coffee and pie meal. I'm a picky eater and have to admit this was the best food so far on our NZ trip. They got the pastry perfect with a hearty filling. Also large portions. The coffee in NZ is commonly quite bitter but found this cafe the best tasting yet. Only $10 for both coffee and pie, it is also the best priced we have come across. Add in a great dining in experience where we could sit in couches and toys available for the kids, it was a wonderful experience.

Friendly greeting from the staff on arrival. Ordered the chicken and salad for lunch and it was delicious, would definitely recommend. Great coffee and all served with a smile.

Stopped for a coffee and a cake - best raspberry and white chocolate muffin I’ve had. Really great service, and a lovely stop to stretch your legs or sit in the gardens in the sun for a break on the road.

Great cafe with wonderful kiwi service. Pies are very yummy too! Young owner doing the place up. Great to see this iconic Southland pub and its local history being preserved.

Nice old restaurant located on the Invercargill- Queenstown highway. Serves different types of coffee and milk shakes at the restaurant. Ample parking space available. Public washroom located opposite side of the establishment.

Great atmosphere, very friendly down to earth real people staff. No hassles, made my stay very welcoming and pleasant. Alex is an awesome host and the food was excellent!

Small town, really small. Didn't enter the hotel, jus drop by the public toilet opposite it. And, the Hunny shop next door is quite good. Free tasting and good price.

Amazing cafe and bar locally owned and operated by Alex who makes all the delicious food himself. Seriously impressive iced coffee and incredible pies! Don't go past without stopping in!

Amazing coffee, hand crafted pies and delicious food. A must stop place if passing through Garston. Welcoming hosts and very child friendly. I highly reccommend a visit here.

Great coffee here! And I've heard the South Isalnds sexiest man works here, Alex is his name ;) awesome down to earth service

Best pies in NZ! And they had a good vegan soup option - coconut milk pumpkin 😊

Awesome service. Good food. It's great to have an authentic country pub to have a quiet drink and a bite to eat at.

I love this old time pub! Good company, good food good clean accommodation. What more could anyone ask for after a long tiring journey!!

During my visit in NZ I have eaten quite well, yet the lamb I had here was my most enjoyable meal so far.

Great pies! Wonderful service and the friendliest cafe around. I always stop by when I’m in New Zealand.

Very good service in the cafe food was good very tasty it was a nice stop the ,pub needs work though

Fab Lunch. Lovely healthy bread served with tasty pumpkin soup. Was recommended.

Great coffee and incredibly friendly owners. If driving through you should definitely go in.

Garston a popular stop the Garston Hotel is highly regarded as an essential watering hole by many a southern youth on the road to adulthood or State Highway 6 as it is referred to on most maps

Owners' son runs the cafe and he was super nice. Muffins were great and so was the free wifi!

Good spot for a stopover. Food was good but Service was a little on the slow side Still happy to support these small operators.

(Translated) Hotel and cafe are in the same building. Chicken curry is a full-fledged curry bowl and was very delicious. There are also beautiful toilets and bags on the other side of the road. Immediately behind is the point of the Mataura River, but the fish is quite nervous because it is easy to enter. (Original) ホテルとカフェが同じ建物に入ってます。チキンカレーは本格的なカレー🍛で、とても美味かった。道路の反対側に綺麗なトイレも🚺もあります。すぐ後ろは、マタウラ川のポイントですが、入りやすいだけにかなり魚が神経質になっています。
