R. M.

Absolutely brilliant place. Good vibe, outdoor and in feel. Nice craft beer list and well priced wine. We had the fish and a Moroccan chicken salad followed by home made sticky date pudding. Superb service and perfectly paced.

A. S.

This is the only place we’ve really eaten so far in Whangarei because we keep going back. The $15 lamb shank special on Wednesdays is amazing. The wedges and hot chocolate are delicious. The cocktails and iced chocolate are quite good. Staff are very friendly. At the start the waitresses are quick and attentive but after 1.5 - 2 hours they sometimes stop asking for drinks and it’s harder to get their attention. It can be pretty cold outside in July and unfortunately there aren’t many tables inside so I’d recommend booking ahead if you want to be a bit warmer (it’s still not toasty though because the large door stays open). Apart from that I’d highly recommend this place to anyone for affordable, delicious food and drinks.

The food came in really late. While placing the order we were told that it will take half an hour for the food to come to the table. We were fine with it. But food didn't come out even after one and half hours. I still give them a 5 star for 1) for the genuine care of the staffs and the quality of food. 2) It was father's day and they were busy. They did come and check on us a couple of time during the wait. At one point we did get a bit itsy and contemplated walking out, when we saw a group of 8 who came in half an hour after us getting their food while we were still waiting for ours. I should mention this guy who took our order, he was exceptional. Just before we left I heard, he had to jump in the kitchen to help the chef with our order as we have been waiting far too long. Kudos to him, we will be back.

R. W.

The portions are huge! We had the chicken avo burger, beef sliders, lamb shanks and pop prawn. All are delicious. Would come back for sure

B. D.

Great meals, massive portions, nice atmosphere. The nachos, fries and burgers are huge

D. M.

A great little place. Great priced burgers and pretty delish. Service was good and staff were friendly. Went back again tonight I have to say this place is stand out! There burgers are just delicious. Will return again

M. C.

Excellent food but staff could come to the tables more often asking if we wanted more drinks more often is the only negative thing I can say

P. M.

Good wee pub Great food, good beer, surprisingly big menu. Beware: big portions! Really nice, lovely staff, definitely going back

A. O.

Thank you Jessi and her team for looking after the Hens and Stags. Awesome night! 👌the seafood chowder comes highly recommended 😊

K. R.

Had an amazing time. Great service and awesome looking and tasting burgers. Will definitely be coming back!

m. T.

I love their fries 🍟 😋 absolutely delicious 😋 Their burgers are delicious 😋 and the service is 10/10, I think every Tuesdays and Thursdays they do $12 burger instead of over $20

M. K.

Great venue for live music or a wonderful atmosphere for a relaxing evening sharing a beverage and a yarn

J. A.

Customer service was excellent & the food is absolutely perfect...compliments to the Waiter & the Cheff 👌👌

H. S.

My favourite Northland venue to meet with friends. Good craft beer selection, good food, including vegan and vegetarian and I have enjoyed some great entertainment including Reb Fountain, Don McGlashan, Exponents. One of the things I will miss most about Northland.

D. D.

We had a meal here recently with a family group of 9, including children. I was a bit dubious of the venue for children but it was great. The service was exceptional and food fab. Big portions, fresh and delicious. We needed doggy bags and noticed other diners doing the same! Would definitely go again when visiting Whangarei.

C. H.

This is one of the best bars I've been to in New Zealand. Really love the people and environment there. (Food and drinks is great as well)

N. B.

The service was excellent but disappointed with the nachos. The only place I've ever had corn chips taste like fish 🤨

R. R.

Service was very slow especially when there was only about 3 groups there. Food was good a bit disappointing they had run out of ribs though and so early in the weekend

K. a. S. P.

We had a great dining experience here. Great food, well presented with awesome service.

S. A.

Amazing lunch as always. Great service for 30 people. Pre ordered meals all came out at once. All hot and fresh.

J. A.

Tasty, well priced burgers and a nice venue.

M. K.

Awesome location! Nicely presented with a good range of beer. Food was good. A real step up on normal pub food quality!

D. M.

Awesome eggs steak and chips for $20,good spot for a quiet beer!

H. T.

It was a great place with a variety of meals and all the good music but above and all the food and mock tails were wonderful

L. M.

Lovely winter afternoon in the courtyard with live band. Got the full rack baby back ribs and it was massive! Fed 5 of us 😂 Very delicious

K. T.

Best service I have experienced at a restaurant in a long time. Waiter made recommendations to help us and came back to double check our special request for a dairy free meal. Food was also amazing. Definitely recommend and great for kids.

S. H.

The staff here are awesome. Good service, great banter and the food was pretty tasty as well. We had the fried chicken and the pickled veggies. I'd only previously been here for a gig but it's just as cool during the day. Easily one of the top 3 eateries in Whangarei.

M. J.

Beer Club @ BF is the bomb. Always something going on if you need a night out. Food is yummy. Service is excellent. Great place to hangout and chill or party.

T. A.

Atmosphere was ok but the size of our group meant we were outside where it was a bit dark and we had to put up with smokers. Food tasty and good value but drinks are pricey

B. B.

Great place to chill out and have good food. Loved my chicken dish, generous servings. Happy friendly staff. Hubby had pulled pork burger and felt it needed something more like more slaw or greens.. price for 2 people, entree, drinks and mains wasnt bad at all.

K. P.

It was nice. Kids cheeseburger- the patty was spicy and my 6year old couldn't eat it. Quite strange for a kids burger to be spicy. We ordered the sliders, popcorn prawns and loaded fries for starters and got them after our mains. Mains we got ribs & steak. Steak tasted burnt. Service was ok. They never came back to see if we were ok (more drinks etc) I asked if I could have some Aioli sauce but never got it but they remembered to charge me for it🤔and never cleared our table as we ordered our desserts. We ate all courses with a cluttered table.

A.

Awesome food and great bar staff.

N. S.

We were lucky to score a table as the bar is obviously very popular with the locals. There were a couple of excellent open mike singers backed by a very professional guitarist/singer. The food and service was great.

T. L.

Love this place! Always good vibes. Whether for a casual lunch, a dine in dinner or a good night out with entertainment, this place has it all. Especially Sam the barman, always friendly, funny and gives great service! Highly recommend.

B.

Great venue with trendy vibe. Interesting menu, well cooked. Great beer selection. Staff are great. Large outdoor area where you can bring the dog 🐕.

M. F.

Rather busy. But service time was quick. Good burger. Good steak. Enough beer options to make the indecisive panic. Lovely servers, and a nice atmosphere.

V. W.

Very chill setting...good service & Sticky Date pudding to die for 😋

D. A.

Great atmosphere, great food and great service. One of whangarei's best kept secrets

A. T.

What a fantastic setting with awesome decor! The place was buzzing when we were there. The halloumi on my salad was a bit dried out for my liking, but everything else was great.

A. B.

We came with our big dog Gracie and felt so welcomed! What wonderful staff who brought over a bowl of iced water for her and fussed over her with lots of cuddles. Taylor/Tyler? was our server and what a great guy! And the food was fantastic! Thank you so much for an enjoyable and memorable experience. We will be back!

T. B.

Love the butter factory. Noce place to eat and catch up with mates 👍🏻 they even bring u a blanket when it's cold 🙂 my fave are their chips and calamari...divine! Burgers were ok, but bread too hard for my old lady teeth...but the insides were good 😁

A. l.

We had an awesome night here ! It was cold so they brought a heater closer and gave us blankets for out laps! The food was delicious and service was fantastic I will be coming again with others

A. D.

My friend brought me here for dinner last night while visiting Whangarei, this place is awesome! I was so surprised at the price of normal fizzy drinks (only $4 a glass!) it’s so cheap compared to bars/restaurants back home as going out in Auckland the night before I paid $7 for a small glass of coke. I had the vege Nachos and the quality and value for money was amazing! A huge meal for under $20. Wait staff were so amazing and friendly, a really cool relaxed atmosphere inside.

K.

Good food good service good price. Will definitely be back

R.

Really tasty burgers and good service.

L.

Average food but staff were nice

H. D.

Thursday's $10 burger night. One word #delish!

w.

Amazing atmosphere. Theres plenty of space, lighting is just right. (we came with a table of 7) Theres plenty of room outside aswell. Our hostess was awesome, great service and had smiles all round. The food was not what we expected, HUGE portions we got full before the main lol. Amazing food! So yummy! They also have a bar 😍 Highly recommended place to go for lunch, dinner or drinks!

S.

Enjoyed the fish burger but not there water

A.

Good food, friendly staff

G. S.

Wow! Our frequent trips to Whangarei have until now presented the problem of not enough quality places to eat at. Not anymore! This pub has exceptional grub and is really a fusion type of venue: great selection of beer and wine and a stage (under a canopy) for evening gigs. But we took our 2-year-old and found it to be family friendly. We saw a table of huge guys order HUGE plates of ribs but there was food for the likes of us as well, namely, the Veganator Burger that I ate and the sweet potato and halloumi burger for my wife, both of which came with a generous pottle of beautifully crisp hot chips. The Veganator was made with jackfruit (and other stuff) and was delectable. The service was really good as well, attentive and keen to know that we were okay. Totally loved the industrial type atmosphere in this old butter factory, as well. Top marks!

J. Y.

Friendly staff, generous portions, good specials, good selection of craft beers, relaxed atmosphere. What's not to love? Being tucked away from the main streets gives this place a nice, quiet, laid back vibe. Staff are friendly and the service is good. The portions are HUGE... You will not leave this place hungry! ;)

D. P.

Great service food and price, had a good time, recommend

A. H.

Just enjoyed an amazing lunch with family at The Butter Factory. Totally amazing experience. The staff were very accommodating when dietary requirements were asked about. We sat outside in the glorious sun and when it got too hot a huge umbrella was put up to shade us. The service was awesume from beginning to end and the food was hot, beautifully presented and delicious, served with crisp and cold IPA from the tap and lemon, lime and bitters. Would highly recommend stopping here for lunch any day.

A. P.

Went in on ANZAC day for lunch but the kitchen was closed early. Odd when it was busy and people wanted to eat. Great atmosphere and outdoor area though. Nice staff.

D. M.

I cannot praise the food here enough. Everything that was delivered to our table was amazing! The staff are friendly and it has a great indoor/outdoor flow. There is a stage set up outside to host the many musicians who play there in the evenings. If you're in the area - you can't go wrong grabbing a bite to eat here

k.

Tasty food at great price and friendly staff.... but not many options for craft beer though

p. &. i. A.

Great place to meet friends and see the bands coming through Whangarei.

k. w.

M. S.

Great food and service. The beer menu is fab! Will be going back for dinner and an evening session.

D. D.

Well we have been wanting to have a meal here since we spotted it on facebook. And it didn't disappoint at all. We both had the Lamb Shanks and Jalapeño Poppers to share. The Lamb fell of the bone and the jus was to die for. We enjoyed the atmosphere and food so much we went back for lunch the next day. This time I had the Ribs with sticky BBQ sauce and the wife had the Rib eye. Again the meals were delicious and well presented. The building is going through some major alterations and i can see this is going to be an even more amazing place to eat in the future.

D. R.

Great food, super friendly and attentive staff. Awesome spot. Big outdoor courtyard- Well worth the visit

S.

Excellent food with great staff. Nice atmosphere, and live music occasionally.

B. T.

M. G.

My son and l enjoyed our lunch here today .Raw fish in coconut milk and a salmon dish yum!certainly going back again 👍

M. S.

Lovely hidden jewel with great service, delicious food and awesome live music or entertainment. Never been disappointed. It's pretty basic, but the atmosphere is fantastic!

D. W. (.

Friendly staff, good choice of quality food and beer. It's tucked away but worth finding particularly Tuesday and Thursday for the $10 burger special. The Basher Burger is a real winner.

J. S.

I like all the different music this place brings to the town. Its vibrant and fresh and overall easy going. I've had nothing g but good nights here and am always looking for what the next thing fling on here

T. I. F.

Very cool place, set in and old factory, it still keeps true to its roots. Live bands both nights we were there and from the posters on the wall there have been some great acts. Range of craft beers and commercial beers and classic 'pub meals'.

R. D.

Casual and cruisy environment. Great pizzas, food and drink. Kept my kids entertained with books. We were even offered blankets on a cold night out. Very happy and helpful staff. Highly recommended visit.

J. W.

Pretty good establishment depending on your intentions. After 10.30pm is good for drinking/smoking/partying. But earlier is quite nice for lunch or dinner. Can be too noisy

L. S.

Nice staff. Decent range of craft beer. Semi-grungy atmosphere. The only faults are those typical of small town bars: limited vegetarian food and music is a little behind. Regardless, this is still the bar I would recommend to those visiting Whangarei.

M. A.

Quite possibly the nicest bar in the country. Such personality, loving staff, incredible food. Professional to work with for private events, awesome sound system and fantastic live music. Absolutely recommend this gem of a venue.

T.

Great service, food and drinks. Reasonable prices.

G. L.

Honestly Brad you are a brilliant Chef. The steak you cooked me was so delectable. Perfect. Totally recommend Butterfactory as the top place to eat. Hey and I am very fussy. Well done.

a.

Very nice burgers. Tuesdays and Thursdays they have all burgers for $10 which a great value for money.

S. W.

Nice outdoor setting where we could take our dog. Staff were very friendly and service was quick. $10 meals were lovely and big!

K. T.

Great burgers at a FANTASTIC price, on Tuesdays that is, man I love the Tuesday burger deal, I wish it was Tuesday everyday, I'd have their burgers forever. Even without the deal most of the burgers are well priced, especially given that it's not your average fast food burger quality despite the quick times for being served, they are great burgers with great ingredients, top stuff there buttero factoro! Edit: oh yeah, the chips are the best in whangarei for chip volume and quality for the price

R.

Great food and fast service

M. L.

This place was amazing, great service, real care from the staff for service and for the food. Food was amazing, even the gluten free bun.

R. Y.

We met up with another class of te reo maori tauira (students). Great nite for all. I didn't order anything as there were to many people. The evening was fantastic everyone enjoyed themselves. Our class didn't stay long. I didn't get to see really anything. But next time I will go there for lunch with my grandson. There was a band as well. Yeah,so if you are in Whangarei check the BUTTER FACTORY out you might enjoy yourself .

Best bar in Whangarei! Friendly staff, great food and amazing local craft beers. The bar is in an old butter factory with tons of authentic charm. Quite a departure from the run of the mill sports bars and Irish pubs.

Family lunch. Food was lovely but we had to wait too long before it filtered out to our table

The butter factory is pretty cool but they could probably do a better job of keeping it clean.

M.

Outside seating for a private function not particularly comfortable but friendly staff and good service made up for this.

S.

Loved the spare ribs but there should be more of them on the plate.

J. G.

Brilliant service, great food. Very accommodating for a family birthday with a big geoup of people.

J. H.

Great on a quiet day, Tonight they were the only place open, the que was 20min long with a 2 drink max ... No one thought to have a girl roving with a big jug and a mobile eftpos ..... Epitome of whangarei , even the best there is is still way behind the times, Your barmaids and their "fed up" attitudes were a treat

M.

10/10, good food, good music and an awesome vibe. Everyone is so friendly. Will 100% be going back.

(Translated) Tasty bar, good food, 8 out of 10. Nice atmosphere, but a little cold. (Original) Bar gostoso, comida boa, nota 8 de 10. Ambiente agradável, mas um pouco frio.

(Translated) I drank the piezo juice. If you go all the way from the entrance to the basement, there is a new world. There are spacious indoor and outdoor tables. I really like the interior. There seems to be a day-by-day event! They also perform live. (Original) 피조아쥬스를 마셨다. 입구에서 지하로 쭉 내려가면 새로운 세계가 있다ㅋ 넓은 실내와 야외 테이블이 있다. 실내 인테리어가 정말 맘에 든다. 요일별 행사가 있는 듯! 라이브 공연도 한다.

N.

(Translated) As the courteous and credits .. just loved the food, the drink is particularly staff at that point. (Original) E ngā ringa raupā me mihi ka tika.. Rawe ngā kai, ngā inu otirā ko ngā kaimahi ki taua wāhi rā.
