Reviews of The Rope and Twine

E.

This is a cozy bar and restaurant in South Dunedin. One thing that makes me interested is they have specials deals and promotions during the week. So you can choose which suit you. The staffs are friendly and provides excellent services. Price is good, taste yum, cozy dining room, clean and they play the music fairly. Will back next time to experiencing other dish.

L.

As popular as ever, the Rope and Twine was busy early in the evening, early in the week when we visited last week. With no pretences, it turns out consistently good pub food at reasonable prices. The staff are helpful, the service is quick and you get exactly what you expect from pub meal.

K.

The staff were very understanding with the people that we took in there for lunch. The food was reasonably priced and very tasty. We all enjoyed our meals :-)

M.

Lovely, friendly, clean and cozy pub restaurant. Reasonably priced, tasty menu options. I'll be happy to return for another pleasant evening out anytime.

J.

Our family loved our first time there together. I've been many times and will continue to. The service is amazing and the food is terrific. A++

m.

Really good value meals, great staff. Honest pub food!

A.

Cozy place, great for chit-chat and good foods. They also have daily promo and 7 days a week lunch special with dessert. This is a good deal that you can enjoy every single day.

V.

Great value for money. Fast and tasty food. Brilliant service.

D.

Lovely steak on their specials night. Service was great. Thanks

J.

Great place for a meal. Nice food and good prices. Great historical story of the building as well....

C.

The chicken meal with roast veges was lovely & didn't have to wait long. Will definitely go back there again.

l.

Waitress service below average. Not friendly at all. Other waiter and barstaff great. Taking into account the business and pressure on staff secondary to covid restriction. Food ok.

A.

Went for Monday night schnitzel and wasn't disappointed! Awesome price, friendly staff who kept us informed of the happenings of the evening and great atmosphere, highly recommended

G.

D.

Great food and drinks. Good atmosphere

K.

Great service, meals was MASSIVE. Lovely night, thank you

M.

The Rope and Twine is unpretentious but comfortable. Plus they have amazing cheese rolls - they cut the bread lengthwise. Enormous, but also really tasty.

R.

First time here come with my fiance to celebrate our 5 month anniversary excellent service

S.

Absolutely impressed with the service and the food. Also Rope and Twine were able to make us welcome at very short notice. We were a group of 15. We rang at noon and they had us seated for lunch at 12.30. Awesome!!! Recommended.

C.

Great food for the price. Very yummy

C.

Awesome food, come here every few months and always get a nice lovely plate of pub style food. Good atmosphere, not too loud. Would definitely recommend

R.

A great place I hadn't been there for a while good to get food at a place I used to go to

A.

The food was terrific 😋 our guests and ourselves absolutely enjoyed our meals this evening... One of our guests even mention his lamb frys?? (Sorry I'm 100% sure what he had to eat) tasted almost like how his mother used to make it👍🏽👊🏽

A.

Always a tasty meal, good service and a reasonable price. Had the orange roughy this time, which had a nice crispy batter, and a tangy tartare sauce. Everyone in the group I was with enjoyed their meals, and we'll definitely be back 🙂

B.

Nice food. Wide variety of pricing. Good parkinh

m.

Service was lovely. Food was great and moreish.

R.

Staff were very friendly and speedy service. Had Beef Schnitzel with creamy mushroom sauce. Aaaamaaazing❤. Enjoyed every bite not that I finished it as my meal was huge and only for $21.90.

S.

Can not complain at all .....great bar meal with relaxed service

S.

We're regular Friday night customers, mainly for dinner with friends. They look after us like family.

J.

Beautiful brunch and great value. Recommend this establishment.

V.

Lovely meal. Great atmosphere and service very good.

J.

Great staff, service with a smile, only had to wait a little while

M.

This place rocks. Excellent staff, great meals at reasonable prices and great atmosphere.

M.

Every pub in town used to offer a reasonably priced full roast meal. Not many today but we got the roast for her (half portion, which is handy) and the cod for me. Both meals were nicely done and in good time. Bar service was good. It's an open eating area but the background noise wasn't too bad and you didn't have to raise your voice to have a conversation. Noise is definately a bugbear, so that was nice that they don't overload the space with background music etc. Prices aren't cheap, but not expensive. Probably the only negative was the banoffee pie was a bit overloaded with whipped cream and the pastry was sub par. I had the Eton Mess for desert and it was loaded with fresh berries, yoghurt, and meringue. I'd eat here again and have friends that do every week.

B.

Always a great place to go.good food &great hospitality. Go there &experience a lovely meal plus drinkies.🤗🌻🌷🦋

Comfortable atmosphere. Food was delicious and came out fast. Came in during lunch; the lunch special is such good value for money, and the cheese roll was so yummy! Came in with my 2 kids and Riah who served us was an absolute gem! She went above and beyond helping me out with the kids. Thank you Riah for making our day!

Z.

Cozy bar and restaurant but nice flavourful meals

A.

The the Weiner Schnitzel was fantastic. Beautifully cooked, geat sauce and vegetables were plentiful - not smothered in chips as some do.

C.

Food was great, services was excellent, and the place has an English atmosphere about it that took me back to my OE days . Thanks I enjoyed myself immensely

E.

Beautiful food and friendly staff with great affordable prices

R.

Great experience here tonight! My friends and I have been here 3 times now and we always look forward to the mouthwatering food and service. They've got beautiful new menu! We had the ribeye steak x2, and porterhouse steak x1, mushroom sauce was divine, chicken burger was brilliant and the half ribs were falling off the bone too! Thanks so much for the great service Hailee!

W.

Too much ribs. It would be nice if you were a little bit kiwi and added veges within the meal. Chips and meat is just nit right.

R.

Great food, cold beer and southern hospitality. What more could you ask for after a long day on the road. Well worth checking this place out if you’re in town.

B.

Whether you go here often or not, the food is always consistent and of great portions. The staff are friendly and helpful too.

M.

Really good meals reasonable prices friendly staff

g.

We had excellent meals. The only problem was they were so big we couldn't eat them all. Perhaps a large and a small helping might be helpful in some cases.

T.

Beautiful main meal, couldn't fault it, decided to go for it and have dessert..Banoffi Pie, was really looking forward to it...it was terrible!!!! Very odd taste to it so i left it..the guy came to collect our plates and I mentioned how i thought that the pie was disgusting and his comment...."yeah I don't know why we keep selling the bonoffi pie"....very dissatisfied. 😰

S.

Awesome meal - roast of the day complete with 7 vegetables. Busy night but didn't wait long for meal

A rather typical pub with the smoking area in an alcove right at the entrance from the car park. This means non-smokers have to walk through the cloud of smokers or face walking around to the opposite corner of the building to enter.
