e.

Great location with friendly prices, good service. Beef Wellington is just $20, great value, also cooked beautifully and very delicious. Went to few steakhouse in queenstown but no one beats here. Strongly recommended.

W. B.

$20 mains! Ordered the beef Wellington for myself and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the meal. Rich, flavorful gravy, perfectly cooked beef and flakey pastry. Also got to try the Chicken Parma, Rump Steak, Lasagne and all were great. Great atmosphere and lovely live music in the pub.

T. H.

Awesome pub near the waterfront. The beef Wellington was only $20. The atmosphere in the pub was good and the price were very reasonable. Definitely will come back again for dinner!

F. E.

Excellent customer service. The food was delicious The view was stunning

I. S.

Very nice meals and great service. 👍

J. K.

Thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The best steak I've had in a very long time. Service was fantastic. meal very reasonably priced.

K. D.

Consistently one of the very best bar/restaurants that I have ever been too. Fantastic meals , excellent staff and live music. Always a great night. Thanks.

A. A.

This is one of the best pub in Queenstown. Tasty cuisines, various options and mouth watering taste are the words I would use to describe the menu in this place. A must visit place to try their lunch menus. Interior is quite soothing to sit inside and spend hours while eating the food.

T.

Great food and one of the only places open at the time. My friend and my daughter had burgers and both really rated them, I had the steak which was very tasty too!

T.

The girls are just wonderful at Pub on Wharf. We had breakfast here on our last day and it was delicious! Food came out fast and was quite good. Sitting outside with the brisk morning air meant our meals went cold quite quick so I would suggest sitting inside. Someone ordered the parmigiana and it was enormous! We were on the hunt for a big one and didn’t visit here for lunch or dinner unfortunately.

J.

Beautiful food at incredibly reasonable prices, great atmosphere and the staff go the extra mile to make sure everything is just perfect. Thanks guys xox

G.

Good pub food great rates friendly staff will return when back down in queenstown. Good view looking out over lake too

K. C.

Friendly and attentive staffs. We had the Pork Ribs and Pork Belly and were really good. The best value restaurant in Queenstown with their $20 mains.

M. L.

Great food for a pub! Great value from the $20.00 dinner menu. Portions are generous. The 3 hour slow cooked beef was fantastic. Tried some local craft beers by MAC and enjoyed.

S. L.

One of the best pub in Queenstown! Food, drink and the staffs are all perfect and so great. We have just had a bad experience in Twizel pub(WM eatery) but this place has refreshen us all. Thanks!

M. H.

Fantastic food and service. One of the best lasagnas we've had. Beef wellington great too.

P. M.

Excellent venue, with great deals. Live Music and wonderful staff. Meals are magnificent, pokies if you want. So clean a d winter warm. It's a must visit

P. G.

Excellent selection of Mac's Brewery beers on tap and bottle. Great lakeside location and friendly staff to boot. The $20 dollar steak is amazing value for what you get!

L. V. m.

Good value for queenstown. Chicken parmigiana was pretty good. Helpful staff. Plenty of beer & wine options. Awesome that they have tv above the male urinals to continued watch the sport

J. L.

The dinner menu is awesome, fantastic value for money, we had the lamb rump and the pork belly, both cooked to perfection, tender juicy and tasted great, good sized portions as well !! Also some very nice wines 🤗

R.

Queenstown is an exceptional place to visit. It is widely regarded as to expensive or out of the way but if you book ahead you can get budget airfares. If the garden of Eden was on earth it would be queenstown. The beauty and the tranquil atmosphere makes you at ease immediately. It is a wonderland of adventure tourism for locals and foriegn travellers. Jet boating skiing horse back riding and a endless list of other fun and thrilling activities. I am a bit older and a walk around the lake or a cruise on the queen of the lake enjoying a BBQ on the other side is a trip to remember. The hiking or biking trails like the frankton track are exceptional. With a cafe culture that offers exceptional dining make your next holiday to Queenstown

Q.

Staff was very lovely, and the live music was great. Fantastic atmosphere

W.

3rd or 4th time I've been here. Very consistent & great food

C. B.

The location and service was great, I'd been reccomended to get the beef Wellington by an activity instructor... everything was nice, it took a while to come out and the beef sadly showed it, it was really overcooked and was clearly a beautiful cut ruined by excessive cooking, it was advertised as medium rare but that it was very well done... Was a shame.

T. M.

Had the best toilets with motion activated screens over the urinals.... Great beers and cosy atmosphere. Live music most nights of the week. $20 meals are great. Keep coming back here!! Love it.

C. C.

I had the Lamb which was great. Abit of gravy would have made it UNREAL. My Mrs had the Lasagne & she said it was 10/10. All mains are $20 each Beer was about $10 a pint. Good atmosphere with a live band on at 830pm. This place is very popular

K. L.

Quite the busy place. You should try to find a seat/table before ordering at the bar. They give you a number sign and your food will get brought out to you. I tried the South island lamb rump and it was great. Would definitely recommend eating here, especially considering the price.

L. A.

Very nice food for the price and the ribs I hade was so good and I would give it a 9 out of ten and I had my first beer there

M.

Comfort food at its best. The fish pie and chicken burger were 10/10. Thankyou team.

N. F.

Their live entertainment is great and definitely adds to the atmosphere. The service is okay as they were friendly enough but not very accommodating. The fish n chips weren't that good but the mussels were decent and the portion size was good (for two people).

P. G.

Had a couple of beers followed by dinner. The South Island lamb rump was amazing - perfectly cooked. Best meal we had in 9 days in Queenstown.

C.

Great food, great drinks, great live music by Blake Carbett.

C. G.

Great atmosphere, and really well priced food. It was a delicious meal.

M.

Great food. Great prices. Very tender steak.

D. H.

Fantastic ribs and green lip mussels. Nice selection of beers on tap and bottled. Order at bar, food delivered to you on the patio with fantastic lake views.

L.

Great location, I was looking for a late lunch in front, but was closed. Chance for enjoy at Pub on Wharf. Tap beer very fresh, great table and sunny place. The food came fast, but not so tasty. Pork ribs and nachos almost good.

C. T.

Decent Beer Selection. Friendly & Knowledgeable Staff. Good Prices. Cozy Atmosphere. Free Limited Wifi. Good Food. Nice Place to Watch Sports (They had NFL playing). Overall A Solid Place to enjoy a pint :)

M. Y.

Very nice pub with beautiful cozy decor and great coffee (who would have thought)! They even had TV embedded in the mirror in the toilet, nice design lol

W.

The food and staff are exceptional. Great location an absolute must when visiting Queenstown

R. L.

I was amazed by the quality of food and the generous portions. The pork belly was top notch. The inside and outside seating is really nice.

E. R.

Went for breakfast, had Eggs Benny and treated ourselves to some extra hash browns... Food came in good time, tasty, great spinach and eggs perfect. The hash browns were amazing, well worth the trip. Staff were awesome too, we went at a quiet time when they were clearly doing little jobs but all took the time to come and chat and be friendly! Highly recommended!

L.

Cheap beer from 4 to 6 pm.

M.

Amazing food and beer. Live band (FreeFall Entertainment) was awesome too 😊🎶

R. T.

A warm, cozy and inviting bar - perfect for a catch up with your mates and the meals are the BEST value for money anywhere in Queenstown

S. W. W.

People talk with their feet... When every other place is empty, this place is packed. We heard about it on a chair lift up Remarkables, what a recommendation! The $20 meals can’t be missed. It’s easy to go out and spend a fortune in Queenstown, but this place can give you more for less. They have a strange table ordering system which can make things difficult if you are sharing a table but it’s a small price to pay. Do try the slow cooked steak, also the beef Wellington, ribs and the salmon. Avoid the lasagne and the pork belly. The lamb is good but the sauce would be better as a gravy. Do not miss this place, as you may of noticed, we went a lot over our stay. Value and quality is a winning combination

F. S.

Rainy day in Queenstown so we were looking for a nice warm place to have a drink and dinner comfort food. Arrived just after 5pm. Great service, nice friendly team. Food was fantastic. Had the sweet potato buffalo balls, fries, beef Wellington (yum yum yum) and nachos (also yum). Thanks to the team for a great start to our Queenstown weekend. Will definitely be back.

E. K.

You will love this place for the price and portion size. Food itself was not bad either, nothing great to expect from the pub.

A. S.

Great place to chill in the heart of the town -- ordered the ribs and it was a great choice , tasty + great portions. Pricing wasn't too bad either

R.

Nice modern pub in a convenient location in Queenstown central.

D. G.

Loved this place. Great meals, well priced. Kids were happy. Pineapple wontons were pinapple lumps cooked in Wonton wrappers and deep fried.

M. S.

Good tasting food. Price are decent also.

K. S.

I came in on Xmas eve, had a yarn with the crew behind the bar, Cool as people bro! Superb live music too but I was keen as on a jam too bro. Churrr still 5/5 mate

R.

Cool vibe, lovely staff although with lvl 2 table service we had to look for someone when trying to order. Cider jar drinks were AMAZING.

C.

Best Beef Wellington i have ever had. Melt in your mouth😍😍😍

B. F.

Excellent experience. Food came out real quick. Ordered the ribs and they were covered in meat which fell off the bone. Very tasty sauce aswell. All meals less the $20 but still plenty of food as I ordedred a side of chips with it and couldn't finish it all. Highly highly recommend you visit Pub on Wharf whilst in Queenstown.

P. J.

Great atmosphere, reasonably priced tasty food. Thoroughly recommend the slow cooked rump, portions sizes just right. After 5 days of trying different places in Queenstown my favourite spot.

M.

Great cocktails. I thought I was tipsy but it was the boat rocking

J. R.

Great place to eat and very popular - if you have to wait for a seat to become available, do it. The food is worth the wait! The $20 mains were decent sized portions and the flavours were very tasty. Would definitely recommend to others and will definitely return when I'm next in Queenstown!

T. T.

Great $20 menu with generous portions. Slow cooked beef and lamb rump was excellent. Great music as well 👍🏼

J. G.

Good meal for the price. Restrooms were in very bad condition for very early on in the night. Take your own hand sanitiser.

G. T.

This place is awesome! Great location and outdoor area if you're drinking and cheap yet really surprisingly good food! The staff are lovely and the bar is cozy. I'll definitely be coming back here on my next trip! Thanks guys :)

G. C.

Great food....did not like the Pekish snacks in the middle of the day. Chips were not good. Dinner was excellent though.

E. S.

Great relaxed atmosphere, awesome live music every night we were there, we just had drinks but the food at other tables looked amazing. Nice friendly staff. Will definitely go back for a meal and drinks next time we are in queenstown!

S.

Awesome food and service, all the staff are awesome 👌

A. M.

Cosy waterside pub with a fire place and a variety of drinks and food available. Loved the mulled wine and maple bourbon which was mice and warm on a chilly Queenstown afternoon.

T. B.

Great atmosphere. We watched the NRL league. Food was great too. $10 a spirit. Lots of craft beer. No RTDs

M. H.

Great atmosphere,friendly happy staff good music what more could you want.went for dinner with two kids they loved it too .highly recommend. I don't ever leave reviews but this was worth it cheers

D. C.

Best customer service we have received while living in Queenstown! We were serviced by a super lovely woman named Druzie. She not only consistently did her job amazingly she went out of her way to help one of us in need. Such a lovely lady we appreciate her so much, thank you!! You made our day 😊

M. A.

Decent hearty meals at an almost ridiculously low price. I can see why this little pub is absolutely humming. Good live music too. Pub grub kept simple but very tasty. If you are on a budget or just want a quick meal that won't set you back a small fortune then I can happily recommend the Pub on Wharf.

E. W.

Great meals for $20 and staff were great

K. G.

Went here with my family, every single meal was amazing! For $20 you get such a generous portion and amazing flavours, my mum said it's one of the best meals she's ever had! $10 pints aren't bad too, it's super cozy, affordable and most of all, incredibly tasty 🙌 I recommend the lamb and slow cooked beef

N. W.

We thought the 20buck main menu would be average but it blew us away. Exceeded expectations massively. Really impressed. Pub grub at its finest. Filling, respected, well cooked generous meals. Well done pub on wharf . We were going to try a different place each night of our stay but think after that we may just come back here every day. Top place.

F. S.

Lovely outdoor dining and it is near the lake. Big wide screen tv tuned in to you favorite sports channel. Reasonable prices and the staff are great.

B. V.

Nice place to have a quick meal. Wide choice of draft beers and ciders. Great atmosphere.

L. M.

Managed to snag a great seat out the front. Perfect people watching spot and a lovely view. Meals were all $20, good quality and very generous portions. Can recommend the lasagne and chicken parmigiana 👍🏼

T. W.

Salmon fish cake was really nice and way beyond expectation, enough for 2 people to share, salmon fillet was fresh but average otherwise. Kids' meal offer no value as main is 20 for dinner. Desserts were quite disappointing. The guy singing at the pub was really a great plus to the experience.

N. V.

Awesome place, with a great selection of draught and craft beers. Food excellent especially the steak dish. 👍

R. S.

What an awesome bar! Amazing vibes, wicked drinks and food with incredible Live Music! The warm alcoholic drinks were super tasty and heated my soul! The live music was incredible - Arun took requests and SMASHED them out of the park! I loved this place so much I went back the next night! The second night where I ordered the Lamb and it was amazing! Great portion flavours and balance with beautifully cooked juicy Lamb! It was well priced for what I got and I also had a tasty cocktail on the side a Mango Cider type :) it was delicious! The vibe was great for families, couples, groups and people of all ages! The location is great, right near the water and central in Queenstown! Outdoor seating is available too!

S. T.

We really enjoyed it and we have big eaters so good food, good portions and good pricing

R. C.

An amazing place! The service is top notch. The drinks are very well priced. The meals steal the show! $20 mains and they are epic! Hats off to the chefs and staff. Will definitely return!

C. A.

Great waterfront bar, lovely outdoor seating as well as cosy interior. Range of craft beers were good, try the Great White. Menu is simple with half a dozen items but quality and presentation of both were far more than we expected for a bar offering. We went back twice. Can get very busy if you leave it later to get a table for food.

H. W.

Fantastic food. Ate here on two nights. Had the 3 hour slow cooked beef first night, so tender. Second night had belly of pork, the crackling was amazing. Wish we could stay a lot longer to work our way through the rest of the menu. Can't rate it highly enough.

A. C.

Big portions, overlooks lake, and food was amazing!

D. C.

Very good value food. Mains were $20, a bargain. You can add some very tasty side dishes. The beers are by Mac's, I really liked the Amber ale. Cloudy cider yummy also. Live music most nights.

J. R.

I've walked past this place loads of times every time I've been in Queenstown and never gone inside. That was a mistake. The food is insanely good, especially for the $20 dinner price tag. One of the best pork belly's I've had. My friends loved their salmon and ribs. The beer selection is pretty good too, along with a few different ciders that you don't normally see. Good vibe as well. There was a game on while we were there so it was packed. Made it impossible to get a table except for some friendly people who let us share with them.

P. J.

Had an awesome dinner here last night. The garlic loaf was outstanding and the three hour slow cooked beef was the best I've ever had. Combine this with a great atmosphere and very reasonable prices, and you can't go wrong. I'll be recommending you to any friends visiting Queenstown. Thanks guys!

N.

We love coming to this place! Amazing happy hour prices, warm seating and friendly faces

C. A.

Decent portions for a reasonable price!

A. C.

I ate here on a Tuesday night with my 5 year old son. There place was fairly busy even though it was only 6pm. Great food. Delicious lamb rump that was restaurant quality and reasonable price. Even the kids meal (lasagne) was tasty. Only had a few minor concerns about it- they wouldn't let me make any substitutions on the plate (wanted salad or veges instead of potatoes), the seating was a little too inadequate to sit outside, and staff were a little underwhelming with their service.

a. d.

We went last night and I had the Beef Rump. It was amazing. I'm a caterer and I can easily say it was the best rump I've ever had. The sauce was onpoint aswell. And only $20 is crazy cheap. So much so we're going back tonight.

T. H.

Great pub. Location is excellent. Drinks affordable and great variety. Winter hot drink options are delicious. Haven't had a meal here yet, but menu looks good and well priced.

G.

I love places that are clear about what is gf df on there menu, haven’t even ordered yet and but it already deserves 4 stars just for that.

G. J.

The wharf is a beutiful place and the fact that they are open till late is a great attraction. The host is cheerful and the bar is well stocked. The food is pub grub but the serving size is ok and food is decent. The ambience is fun and relaxed and after the day in the city is a great place to grab a couch and relax.

S. W.

My fiancé and I thoroughly enjoyed our evening meal. The slow cooked beef and the chicken parmigiana was delightful, all for $20 each. Friendly staff and cozy atmosphere makes for a good evening. Thanks Pub on Wharf, we'll be back next time we're in Queenstown.

R.

Warm, welcoming atmosphere. Good choices on the menu. Great for families.

J.

Awesome 20 dollar feeds, with a good variety. Nice happy hour with big bots of speights 6 bucks between 4 and 6pm.

J. D.

Great staff, even better food! Glad I had this place recommended to me! The main meals were $20, so tasty.. and even big enough to share for Mum and I!

M.

Where to go on a rainy, cool Queenstown evening... Had 2 Cocktails - generous sizes. Warm and cozy. Guy on guitar singing. Enjoyable time 😊

J. M.

Great value, good portions and very tasty! Had the sticky BBQ ribs (super filling!) and am keen to try the salmon next time :))

L.

Cosy environment, delicious food and some really good beers (which I was able to try before ordering them). Staff didn't pay much attention to the costumers so they felt a bit unfriendly. overall a nice place to sit and relax or have some dinner (not too expensive).

K. R.

Beautiful pub and amazing meals full of flavour. Only thing I would comment on is if it is peak times it can get really busy and hard to get a seat but we went around 8.30pm on a Monday night and it was fairly quiet. Would go back to eat again!

P.

A busy little place on the waterfront. Cheaper meals in warm surroundings. Wish they had used real potatoes rather than what seemed puree mix. A Macs bar.

G. H.

Service ok. Staff could be more attentive to customers, as opposed to talking amongst themselves. Still a place I'd go for a quiet drink. They just need to "Up their Customer Service". I say that as one who has tutored in Customer Service for 12 years.

L. M.

Really enjoy visiting this place, great value (large portions) good, staff are pretty good too. Would have 5 starred it if the terrible manager hadn't ruined an evening for us. Worth a visit if looking for a good value, decent quality meal. Kinda rare in Queenstown

A. M.

came in the other day with 3 mates, who had the chicken, beef wellington and pork belly each. I had the ribs. everyone was super satisfied. speaking personally, the ribs were really well cooked and the wedges and slaw went really well with it. Really really good value for money ($20), didn't take long to make (~20-25min for all 4 orders served at the same time) and the place was well furnished and clean. shoutout to the cooks who are always the ones who don't get enough appreciation when something is done well!

J. P.

Family had dinner here and was excellent value for money. The food was very good and definitely good quality, good portions and tasty. Really friendly staff and helpful too.

B.

Great location, good friendly staff and good prices but average cold breakfast alongside equally average coffee. Would go back for a drink and recommend for same.

H.

Mussels were beautiful! Beer was cold! Perfect start to NYE

H. M.

Great looking pub with booths and seating options for groups. Range of Macs Beer and some other options to keep warm. Big fire and decent menu. Sunday Live music Those Guys were great!

A. M.

The food here is top notch and the prices are really reasonable. They also had seriously good entertainment, the Maori guy on guitar was absolutely brilliant with an unreal voice, such an excellent spot!

D. J.

I ordered a lamb meal and it was bang on, hit the spot. It was actually pretty incredible as far as quality which far outweighed the price. The beer is great and the location is handy. Recommend it highly!

A.

Cheap dinners, plenty of options for $20. Only criticism is that the dishes can't be customised, so if you don't like a certain thing in the dish, you can't change it. Good location on the water, live music most nights and the staff all seemed friendly! Wouldn't have a problem recommending this spot to friends.

A. B.

Stopped in for some coffees one morning. Staff were really friendly and welcoming, coffees were great. Nice and clean, will come back for some beers and food next time. Quite a popular place to eat and drink

L. S.

Just had a craft soda while husband had a few beers. Great staff! So fun and sweet. Great location. We did not eat but the food looked and smelled incredible.

K.

Found this pub great for basic pub meals done well and service couldn't be faulted. Would highly recommend for value for money. $20 meals beat other local places for value

A.

Love they have live music most days. Food was pretty good. Customer service was fantastic. Nice spot in front of the lake.

A. B.

Hands down best roast lamb I've ever had, and this is no overstatement. The pub itself is on the waterfront and has a cozy feeling with its outdoor and indoor fire heating, indoor booths, outdoor lounge and live music every night. Have walked past the pub a few nights now and it appears to be quite a popular spot for dinner/drinks so if you are not booking then it may be a challenge to get a table.

J.

I've had a real change of heart about this place. Great spot for weekday music and staff has been super friendly. Just goes to show you that opinions can change. Since the lockdown this has been a great place to be.

M. A.

The vibe of this place is the best in town. Great bar ambience, courteous and happy staff and the live music by Peti... marley songs, set the mood for us. Loved it! One of the best pubs in queenstown I can easily say after trying a lot of them. Rates are like any other pub in the city ~9 to 11 dollars for a good wine and ~8 for beer pint.

L. W.

Great selection of beers. Chicken Parma was ok. I did see a burger come out of the kitchen and that looked huge. The outdoor area has heaters and great views over the lake. The rum runner is not good according to others.

B. B.

Nice chilled atmosphere over looking the lake. Can get a bit lively on a Saturday if there are stage and hens around but that is to be expected in Queenstown. Inside has a modern decor and comfortable if the weather is not permitting.

M.

Love this pub when I am in town, good atmosphere with inside and out seating options, have a cold beer and watch the busy world go by.

M.

Beautiful pub style food. Service was perfect and also had the pleasure of live music. We will be back for sure!

b. b.

Nice pub, local hangout for many who work near by. Food is nothing special but for the price in Queenstown very good. Live music most night which is great can be hard to get a table during busy periods.

j. h.

Free WiFi and great views of the mountains and lake. Beers reasonably priced considering the location

Z. P.

A decent place to eat cheaply in Queenstown. No bookings are allowed and it was fairly busy so be ready to wait. Also wouldn't allow us to swap slaw for the veggies they had on the sides menu. I suppose that allows them to keep the prices low but a bit of a bummer for my partner who really can't stand the stuff.

I.

It was good as all meals were $20 each and decent size, good quality, definitely a more affordable place on the water front. It is more of a bar than restaurant so if you are a drinker, you would like it more

P. P.

Really enjoyable food. Comfort stuff. Warm sociable inside. Beats the chilly winter freeze outside. Bar tender a bit brusque (why is not five stars). Waitress was ok but after delivery and a somewhat forced is it ok check we never saw her again. Place is clean and the restrooms spotless. Food is great. Maassive serves. Recommend coming early and eating from the brunch menu for decent prices. The real reason they lost a star is because they played Funky Town. People complaining about being asked for ID should check NZ laws.

E.

They deliver what they promise. “Good quality meals at fair prices and a hearty selection of local kiwi favourites on the menu”. Great place and super friendly staff.

C. B.

Oh damn son! I'll be coming back here before I leave QT. Wicked home hearty meals for dinner, ordered a beef Wellington and my girlfriend ordered lasagne and both were amazing. The only problem? I wanted another one! Haha. The staff are friendly here, great drinks and decent prices too (not too expensive like its neighbouring venues). Oh and a bonus for the lads: you don't have to miss out on the sport when you need to empty the water tank, they've got screens in the wall so you stay up to scratch on the sport, so you won't be missing highlights.

C. O.

Beautiful place near the water, live music every night and Mac brand on tap. What more could you ask for? For those of you who wonder, yes there is free wifi for a short while, yes there is food (only 20 nzd too for mains), yes there is no queue to the bar, yes it is pretty crowded every night. We were there almost every single night in Queenstown for the live music!

K.

Lovely spot by the lake. Great menu with a few options you probably won't find at your local. I tried the pub pho, pleasantly surprised by the fresh flavour. Also try the cider jars for something sweet otherwise a good selection of beers.

B.

Can’t go wrong here. Great food at good prices, friendly staff and quick service during busy times. Great location and atmosphere. Broad menu of food and drinks, however the Chicken Parma came served on TOP of the chips tsk tsk ;) Pick a table outside and watch the world go by or head inside for a cosy seat.

C.

Drinks fairly priced, only had a small bowl of wedges but saw the other fabulous meals coming out, looked amazing. Fabulous staff, quick to clean up and serve

R.

Solid little pub. The beer selection is decent and the food is good as well. The location is awesome, so all together it's a pretty good little place. The beef wellington is unreal for the price, I'd definitly reccomend giving it a shot.

C.

Bloody brilliant! Came in for lunch on a rainy day. Table ordered the ribs, 3 hr slow cooked rump and the Parma. Rump was unbelievable. So soft and juicy. The Parma was also declared to be perfect. Ordered one of the jar cocktails and found it a little sweet but the Mac's beers were awesome. Can't beat the price of $20 for a meal at lunch either!

C.

A great pub with a brilliant atmosphere & live music. We sat outside for dinner and the view was lovely of the water. You cant go pass these meals for $20, such good value.

R.

Great value for a casual meal. Fabulous view of the lake and lovely and warm on a cold day

R. S.

Nice location and atmosphere. Food not the best though and portions are really small.

D.

Comfortable, nice staff, great food, huge range of beers. Not too expensive. Nice sightseeing from the terrace and live music at night. Nice place if you wanna try.

K.

Lovely service, warm and cozy bar. We only had drinks but the food looked good at the other tables!

N.

We always go there great people friendly staff great meals and good prices

C.

Outstanding service, fantastic choice of food with a brilliant lake side view. Highly recommended.

V.

Great pub right on the water front. We had dinner here and it was very tasty, lots of meat, filling dinner. For 20$ a main course right in the center of Queenstown it can't get much better!

T.

Has great service, outstanding food no matter what you get, amazing prices - strongly suggest for lunch or dinner, or both :)

b.

Great pub meals where brilliant but my sister and I had the lamb rump and the harissa sauce was over powering and spicy. We both thought the harissa was off putting to the point of near making the dish un eatable. Please change it to a simple pan gravy reduction and that lamb would be ten out of ten.

B.

Some of the best pub food in Queenstown! Their pork belly is to die for with very very generous portions for great value! Good range of drinks with awesome music playing nightly

J. B.

Had a meal here twice was very nice $20 great price. Good size meal. Drinks were a little expensive for less than half a glass of wine.👎 Good atmosphere busy place.

K.

Mmmm hmmm what can I say Pub on the wharf your meals are absolutely the best. We ate dinner there every night.My favourite was the lasagne but every one of the meals are truly delish. Oh and even better is that all your meals are only $20 well worth double and more; but please don't put the price up lol. Biggest compliment to the chef you're truly an awesome cook and consistent with the awesome meals. Thank you.

S.

Great $20 pub meals! Beef Wellington is top notch for a pub meal!

M.

Food was great , had spare ribs and chicken burger. The only negative is that they did not provide us with any hot lemon water to wash our fingers or a wet wipe.

S. R.

Nice relaxed atmosphere with a great central location. Lots of good local, live music in the evenings. Good pub food. Good variety of drinks. Friendly staff. Decent prices. I recommend it.

R.

Felt like a good pub steak and chips and boy did this hit the spot. Huge perfectly cooked steak, yummy garlic bread and super cheap!

M.

Amazing staff and no bar service, had to order at our table, hand sanitizer at the door and covid sign in at the door.

M.

Great atmosphere, $20 meals well worth it

A. P.

Good location, nice and warm and quiet inside on a cold day. Nice selection of beers. The food we had wasnt the best for pub food, wasnt completely as described on the menu.

J. D.

Great pub on the wharf. It was nice to sit out side under the heaters on a warm night. Strongly recommend their hot beverages on a cold night. They go down a treat!

E.

Beautiful views, friendly staff, good food, right in downtown Queenstown with plenty of outdoor seating. This is a great place to grab a drink and just people watch, absolutely suggest popping in, even for a quick one

Nieve is such a babe!! It was her first day today, and as a group of 12 girls on labour weekend it’s not exactly easy.. but she was incredible!! Absolutely delightful to deal with, such a bubbly fun person for the atmosphere! Couldn’t reccomend her more! ☺️

J. F.

Delicious meals at very affordable prices from the $20 menu. Loved the beef wellington!

C.

September 2017 20 bucks 20 bucks dinner, cheap in town but always busy, so if you like to dine cheap and drink alot, come early and be ready to wait maybe 30m-1h to get a table

T.

The pints are great! Pretty tasty meals for such an affordable price. Really hard to get a table but worth it.

A.

Awesome cozy bar , great drinks , great live music. Loved it

R.

It was ok, it was food, it filled our bellys. Not what I came half way around the world for. I had the beef po boy and my wife had the cheese burger, nothing special about either.

J.

Incredible South Island lamb- tender as. All other 3 meals delish. A must visit in Queenstown! Great value too - just $20 for a large meal!

R.

Not a bad place for a beer given the location, but our burgers were over cooked and the service was bit slow even with not many people in for an early lunch

A. M.

Liked the sitting area, maybe because of its location near the lake. Had a drink, the waitress/bartender was friendly. The heater kept us warm outside when it was cold and rainy.

R. A.

I hope we were there on a bad night... The porchetta was a show-stopper, when I was last there in 2009. What we received, sadly, was a poor imitation.. Dry and overcooked. The mash was nice enough.

J.

Ate dinner here and enjoyed some fantastic beer during the Rugby World Cup 2011. I'd go back any time. I'll update this post when I find my notes on what I actually ordered.

j. s.

Robert was an awesome host. Great way to spend a birthday. Food inexpensive and very good. Great sounds with Arun O'Connor.
