Reviews of Star Tavern
T.
Great atmosphere and helpful staff . Steak and eggs cooked to perfection , congrats to the cook Criss. DOG friendly must be on a leash but they were really relaxed about that . Stayed the night in there car park and the next night stayed right on the shore front down Domain rd .
K.
Kaye and the staff were most accommodating, couldn't have done more to help. We got shut down here during a weather bomb
and couldn't have asked for a nicer
place to be stuck. Food was top class and everybody was friendly, a real country pub everything really well priced.
K.
Arrived in the hospitable arms of Westport here on Kayes beachfront paradise and may stay forever! Thank you for being generous open hearted people. Dinner at the Star Tavern was superb! Service amazing and food was perfect. Love the vibe Annie and Jeremy have created there. Nothings too much trouble and they make running a tavern look easy! Well done all of you for making my first impressions of Westport hit 10 out of 10.....sunset was a 10 too!
m.
Such the loveliest barman and waiter. We really love this place. You can eat real budget or splash out. The security Dog is such a smooch and the outside garden seating on a good day is the best.
S.
Had a great time here mixing with the locals. Typical type pub, basic surrounds with a small restaurant. Some nice history in some pics on wall and hosts were great. Food hearty and plentiful. Had fab time playing pool, darts and even captivated the entire pub with a Jenga attempt to get to 34 levels. Stayed the night in motorhome Seascape just down road from pub. Thanks kay had a lovely time. Also available is a restored villa. Amazing work carried out by owner to provide quality accomodation. Worth a stop.
S.
Hospitality was 1st class and the food was superb, Stayed in the camper overnight in the garden overlooking the ocean if you are in your camper van call in you won’t be disappointed this our third time ….. great place
V.
Kay is wonderful, so warm & welcoming, highly recommended!
Views from her place are amazing.. THANKYOU
C.
Great experience with very friendly local flavour and sunny lawned outdoor area. Some people bring dogs but we encountered a pet 1mth old baby goat called Memet who kept everyone entertained sitting on laps etc. Great fun
j.
Good food great staff great salad with meal and well presented. No turbot available but good excuse to go back
g.
Lamb shank melted in your mouth. yum
b.
Great tavern run by awesome locals. Food was super delicious and was made using fresh ingredients.
W.
Such a great little pub. Delicious food and very friendly staff who make you feel like one of the family as soon as you walk in the door. Definitely made it onto my list as a favourite.
J.
Very friendly. Best place for motorhomes to park. I'll visit again.
S.
Lovely garden bar! Yummy food and awesome service.
R.
Nice good food fish and chips so yummy
C.
The guy behind the bar, was so friendly! And fish wrap was AMAZING!
s.
The food was amazing & super cheap, would definitely recommend lunch or dinner there
C.
Walked in and the fire was roaring, a massive dog called governor lying next to it. Good food and great service. Reminds me what being a kiwi is all about. Worth the trip just to see ‘the Gov’
C.
Great service, great snacks, great atmosphere.
S.
Great food and beer, also very nice friendly, owner and staff.
i.
Food was Amazing! Very tasty..
L.
Fantastic experience of an authentic country pub. Great all day breakfasts with unbelievably big sausages and delicious pumpkin soup and brocolli bites
P.
Great Fish n Chips, beautiful garden, good wifi and very friendly service. Perfect spot for a lunch before or after Foulwind Cap.
Z.
Had a great meal here after a long day on the road. The burgers are big. You’ve been warned. We also met and had photos with Governor the Bar Dog. Definitely worth spending time here.
D.
This is a charming country pub. The Scotch Fillet Steak was fantastic, cooked perfectly and nice and tender. The burger we ordered needs work. The Spicy Chicken burger was a real chicken fillet but the spicy sauce was very mild and tasted strongly of capsicum. The resident dog is so cute.
R.
We loved Star Tavern. The service and hospitality is so warm (along with the open fire) and welcoming and the food was second to none. The white bait fritters were of course a highlight but everything was top notch. Gov the dog was adorable and he even poses for pictures!!! Thank you all
S.
Great to reconnect with the Cape, no fuss surrounds but great hospitality, good food, free pool, and an open fire.
Mein host Kay's bull mastiff Guv a highlight, he even enjoys a photo op.
A wee gem if you're staying out that way, or have been out to the seal colony.
Haven't posted a review for a while, but my 11yo daughter insisted I did
H.
Great atmosphere awesome food great place for a stopover and catchup
R.
Positioned close to the very tip of the peninsula, surrounded by park-like grounds overlooking the Tasman sea, reef's and small Islands a lovely tavern with good but expensive food served by lovely staff. Definitely worth a visit.
J.
We had such a good comfortable time. The food was excellent and the Governor was much loved by us. Also I found my glasses which were the same colour as your carpet the next day. Thanks again for a good time.
C.
My wife and I visited in October 2019 from Scotland whilst staying at the Lazy Seal Cottages, and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. We had a drink in the bar and chatted with some locals and the owner before having some great pub grub for dinner. There was also a very friendly dog who was a bit of a sook (especially if you had food!)
M.
Awesome spot to hang for an afternoon after the Cape Fowlwind Walk. Great selection of beers, the staff and owner are incredibly nice, there’s a pool table, darts, chimney, etc. and the food was great as well. I had the grilled rig & tarbot and I enjoyed both! Next time we’re in Westport we’ll definitely be back. Thank you!
L.
Very friendly pub. Food was amazing and there was a good selection of drinks. Very welcoming fire and atmosphere. Thoroughly recommend it.
P.
Really good hot chips! Friendly bartender
e.
Excellent pub food, the owner works there frequently and is super friendly and helpful. I had the grilled (actually pan fried) turbot, which was delicious. Gov the dog is a permanent resident, and worth the trip all by himself.
B.
Great place eating outside in garden so dogs are welcome. Loved the food. You can mix you food basket to your taste. The Halibut was amazing. Go there you wont regret it
J.
We came into the tavern from pouring rain to a nice fire going and welcomed by the resident cat. The food was fresh, well prepared me served quickly and generous portions. Known for their fish and chips, We felt very at home and enjoyed visiting with some of the regular local residents. Highly Recommended.
C.
Wonderful place to meet friendly locals, eat yummy fish, and have a great local beer.
The place was busy with locals, always a good sign. The owner and all the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.
Try the West Coast Pale Ale from local brewer- delicious!
L.
First, Governor was the most awesome dog ever!
The food was amazing. Had vegetarian nachos one night and a fish burger the next. Try their crumbed Camembert. Their garlic bread was great!
M.
Awesome food. Turbot yum yum. Friendly staff. Prompt service. My second visit here. We will be back.
G.
Fantastic staff Food v good

Rob, Bo and Nancy
N.
Had a awesome meal and the staff are very friendly. Looking forward to the next visit.
M.
Really enjoyed the food and staff
M.
Great pub grub
D.
The quirkiest pub in NZ, ....A wonderful surprise to be greeted on a cold wet miserable night by the barman/publican dressed in his footy shorts & jumper and long socks at the bar right next to the cosy log fire. The pub ceiling is littered with paper money stuck to it by chewing gum, the very friendly local drinkers want to learn all about you and are equally prepared to tell you all about themselves around the log fire. The limited food on the menu is not a hardship as they serve up the tastiest locally caught fish. I'm not certain if they have accommodation as we did not ask about it ...
A real oasis in a very aptly named locality..
M.
Great meals very hospitable
M.
Great place with excellent food and friendly staff..the place to go after visiting the cape
T.
Friendly locals and staff. Range of choices for meals. Interesting historical photos on the walls.
I.
Very nice meals and great service. A great nice old pub feeling. 👍
J.
Great food. Chicken burger delicious.
A.
We entered the restaurant and were immediately welcomed by the owner. He started a nice conversation, while sitting there with his family. He asked us which beer we like and gave us two glasses. For me it appeared as an invitation. I've been totaly dissapointed as i recognized that these two glasses were on the bill. No true hospitality - only business making.
The fish was o.k. but nothing special.
M.
A really lovely atmosphere with the motto 'enter as strangers, leave as friends'. I definitely think this place lives by that. A nice bar and restaurant to eat. A few pool tables too.
N.
Decent food but this place is more of a bar. We were in the wrong season for whitebait but I bet it's better when it's in season. Staff was friendly and there's lots to do in the garden and the games room. Worth a visit if in Westport.
B.
Had a quick beer and delicious egg and bacon burger. Cheers Kaye
M.
Amazing food and service!! Fantastic spot to take kids also. Definitely go here 😁
M.
Quiet friendly place to park up with the caravan. Power available. Walks to the cliffs and the lighthouse and great sunsets. Thanks Kay.

L.
(Translated) Café restaurant mostly frequented by locals. Rather noisy, cheap but a little unkempt. Table and benches had a sticky feeling
(Original)
Café restaurant vooral gefrequenteerd door plaatselijke bevolking. Nogal rumoerig, goedkoop maar een beetje onverzorgd. Tafel en banken hadden plakkerig gevoel
S.
(Translated) Very good meal. Good welcome
