Reviews of The Brown Pub
Four of us found the Brown pub to be very clean, very affordable and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The meal was also a great price. Recommend it to all.
Also a word out for the beautiful hot pools in Methven.
Great venue for drinks and a not expensive meal. They cater so well for children and have a children's playground at the rear of the building which is totally safe and secure. Adults can also blend into that environment very successfully without interruptions.
Great for a family afternoon party in particular.
Step back a proper country pub 🍻. Plenty of room friendly locals and pleasant friendly staff. Bar meal's available or full service restaurant other side of bar. Pool table Big screen TVs TAB and pokies. Cold Beer selection of wines and Great coffee
What a pleasant surprise when we walked upstairs, stayed in room 3 overlooking the Main Street. Perfect room, foyer, lounge such ambience, totally enjoyed our stay in the ole girl, thank you
Really comfy place to stay while spending time at Mt Hutt. Location is smack bang in the middle of the town and everything you need is just meters away including the pickup/drop-off for the Ski Bus. The room is more than adequate, the shared facilities are regularly cleaned and the water pressure was a nice surprise. The staff downstairs were very helpful, friendly and great to ask for local pointers and advice. For the money, I have to give 5 stars.
Enjoyed the meal with the locals tonight. Great spot and lovely fish n chips.
Vaccine pass required so they start at 5 stars. Food and service was good so they stay at 5.
First time here..had lunch which i enjoyed..not too busy and the staff was friendly😀👍
This place rocks.. good beer good food great restaurant..and that old guy awesome behind the bar.. oh the the European dude.. awesome too great rooms loved my breakfast and the fire so warm ..toasty
Very good all round . Comfortable rooms and great food and service.
Very good meal, some of the locals were characters!!
Good country pub, Nice meals good value.
Beef nachos were good! My husband had the lamb skewers and said they were average. Good beer and good service though!
Excellent service super warm, cosy and friendly staff. I had the beef tacos and chocolate tart and was so happy with the hot, tasty food.
We arrived just after the restaurant had closed. The staff were great and reopened it for us (they must have seen our desperation for food). Good food with friendly service.
Warm fire, cold beer and great food! Awesome spot and well worth the stop
This is the pub, with the unwritten rules. It's place , where the local people meet. Personally I think that the place looks like downtown, but we had there good times, and I had delicious burger, served by friendly waitress. As 3 stars should be considered for middle, I giving 4.
Fast service. Very good portion sizes! Nice cooked meat. The chicken schnitzel was the best I had ever had. Didnt think to take a photo but my partner mentioned the presentation of her meal was awesome. The chips tucked under the meat neatly and the cluster of salad almost in a ball shape. Was a nice meal out in methven 😁😃
Fast service, good menu and colouring in for kids which is much appreciated. No real craft beer selection (despite the name). Gave us a broken highchair for our baby and I urge they throw this out before there is a serious accident.
Really enjoyed our stay at the Brown Pub. Excellent service, good food, comfortable bed in warm quiet room. Had to share facilities but fare was very reasonable, would definitely recommend
Decent selection of drinks, some good deals on at the weekend. Bar food is terrible, pie, barely cooked and reheated in the microwave so it burnt to my plate, atmosphere is none existent unless you get lucky on a Saturday night.
Go to the restaurant side for an entirely different experience, pretty decent food along with service with a slight smile and lovely decor!
Good clean rooms. Inexpensive during peak times. Basic kitchen facilities. Plenty of hot water for showers. Friday and Saturdays go off like a bucket of prawns in the sun, so don't expect a quiet nights sleep - it is a pub ! Owner is a great bloke - very helpful. In the dead centre of town, so close to everything. Worth the visit. I'll be back !
Great service. Standard pub fare with enough options. Shame steak and lamb rump was off the menu.
A thoroughly enjoyable experience! Great food, excellent service and the kids area outside is great!! Had soo much fun and will definitely come back next time we're in town!!
Highly recommended,
Cheers.
Great fast service, decent chip portions and friendly staff :)
Great food Nice atmosphere and 750 ml bottles of beer yeah!
Food was delicious and the staff were very friendly, including being versatile when faced with dietary requirements. Would love to go again and would recommend, especially as they are family friendly - it's a nice, safe, friendly environment.
Beautiful meal, nice quiet country pub, value for $ and an awesome waitress ☺️
Stopped by for lunch. Good pork roast, and crumble for dessert.
First time visit since the fire. Worthwhile to see the work done.
Overnight stay includes staying in a small room (no table, just your bed). Seperate from the room, it has a common room, couple of showers, sink, and fridge which is all shared between around 20(?) rooms. Ideally, would recommend a group to book numerous rooms as it may not accommodate a big group. If you are going to Mt Hutt, just to advise there is no heating room, I used the heater within our room which was a radiator to dry our equipment. Service is great, you have a lot of variety to eat in and around you. Everything is near you. Overall, a cheap place to stay. If you do not care about luxuries and just require a stay for the snow. This is your go to place.
Started our night here. Horrendous service and bar staff. It was a chore to get anything out of the staff!
Update: The owner and manager have both personally addressed my concerns and over a long winded conversation have apologised and offered a free meal and drinks! Although I have declined it was quite commendable. I will be giving this place another go!
Bloody good pub, would recommend great sticker as well
Not many other places open for food 2night in Methvan. Nice blue cod n chips with salad, thank you
Fantastic out door area in the sun. Could not fault the meal at all. Easy entertainment for the kids. Great service😆😁
It's an ok pub, has what you need. Food in the restaurant was mediocre. Went with 8 other people and only 2 had no complaints about their meals and they were the people who never complain about anything. Nobody ended up sick or anything, just disappointed.
Nice warm place with friendly staff, unfortunately did not have coffee available when I visited as the sober driver for my group.
It was very kiwi and hospitable, I'd give it 5 stars but I could have died in my sleep due to it burning down just after I checked out, all good accommodation was excellent.
Great service, yum food and good pool
Nice pub, food was ok. Definitely geared towards the ski clientele, heavy carb foods for the average tourist you could probably cook better yourself.
Great meal after a long day riding. Friendly, helpful staff. Thanks!
Great atmos, staf super helpful. Top recommended.
Didn't eat there on this day was very busy was told food would take 1hr and when you children not good next time maybe
Nice place stay! Great facilities and access to amenities.
Recently had an evening meal with large group. Good hot food, good selection, good service and modest prices.
