Reviews of Mangawhai Tavern
Z. W.Food was amazing and incredible venue with great indoor and outdoor seating options. Steak and Southern fried Chicken couldn't be faulted! Will be back for sure!
S. C.Have good selection of drinks and munchies food. Best when outside and band playing. Inside is dated and has the usual beer on the floor smell (not overwhelming - just typical public bar). Friendly staff. Saturday morning the place hums with the local market happening.
M.Best Laska I've ever had (though not cheap). Seafood was very fresh. Nice seating inside and out. Good service.
K. H.Great service and even better food. All the meals including the share plates were very generous servings. Everything was cooked to perfection and great flavours. The ribs could have been a bit more saucy but still delicious nonetheless.
D. S.Lovely location, old wooden weatherboard Victorian or colonial style building. Very prompt and efficient service. I noticed a large outdoor area with a stage for bands. Definitely going back to hear a band when they have a gig going.
Food was good pub fare. No complaints. We were a group of 14 and no one had to wait for anything.
L. S.Well people eating out tonite...if u r up in the North...highly recommend u take r detour to the Mangawhai Tavern...top marks to the Chef's...excellent food & presentation...Entree...Battered Oysters, Pork Belly Bites with Peking Sauce, Apple & Asian Pickle...Main Meal...Fish & Chips, Old School Beer Batter, Fresh Fish, Chips & Homemade Tartare Sauce with r side dish of Salad...👌...lots of other meals...🍽
x.My partner and I came here for dinner. Super looking place with great service. The team were well versed in attending to us and light chit chat during us ordering / through the meal to make sure we were happy. Drinks came to our table very quickly. Dinner took a little longer but we came at a busy time. If you’re into social distancing - this team is doing a great job spacing tables out, checking vaccine passes and ensuring that masks are being worn.
The meals were delicious and of a good portion size. We had the prawn tacos, Malaysian curry (curry of the day) and some jalapeño poppers (totally worth it). Flavours were well balanced.
We will definitely be going back. Thanks team for a delightful meal.
S. E.Great spot, if you can sit outside. Food is pretty good, particularly from the sharing plates menu, although the ribs from the other menu were scrumptious. Overall, would come again, especially when there is live music.
Recommend booking during the busy season as you definitely want a table outside. Inside is dark and trab and no effort had been put into making it nice.
M. M.I went there for lunch and ordered the pork belly bites and a green salad, everything would have been fine except the skin on the pork belly should be crisp and crunchy like crackling,but it was more like rubber and the bites were swimming in a watery sauce, which is not what you expect when you order pork belly,it should be on its own. I wouldn't say it was a disaster but for the fact they got the most important and essential aspect of the whole dish wrong.I would still recommend this pub though for the location and the service which is excellent.
C. K.Saturday morning Market a delight of music, great artisan food, crafts and wears. Great menu which never disappoints. Lovely staff, ample parking with inside and outside seating - plus a great view!
J. W.Was very busy today, but service was quite quick, but then we only had a glass of wine and some polenta fries...which were very yummy. Will definitely be going back. Its such a nice place with a great view and nice atmosphere
N. A.Good food, nice view
Definitely recommend it
T. H.Attended the local Saturday Markets situated at the Tavern and stopped in for a quick beer. I guess it depends what experience you are after. The building and location are beautiful but if you are after that pub with its locals and atmosphere you may not experience this
F. C.Very good food, reasonable price, beautiful location, however 4, I repeat FOUR consecutive times that I went to dinner there, the bill to pay came with the wrong amount. Detail... the value was always higher, the mistake was never the account being cheaper.
R. C.We walked 5km there and back so expectations were high. Blown away actually. Informal, friendly atmosphere with personal service. We both had one of their curries. Fresh and tasty as. The wine list was also excellent, enjoying the local, unoaked Chardonnay. Highly recommended.
t. n.We had an awesome night at the Tavern. A great spot to mingle amongst the locals. We all enjoyed our food. Steaks were great!
D. O.Nice scenic place good pub and food
P. G.Food a bit expensive for my liking however the burgers we had served were very nice, and wait staff pleasant! :)
I would recommend to try here.
A. N.Food was surprisingly good for a tavern! Just just your regular burgers and fries, but a real good range of dishes! Helpful staff too. Would visit again!
V. H.I am nut usually a pub food girl but I had the Malaysian roti and it was very nice and ample. My friend had ribs and they were great. Definitely recommend.
R. K.Lots of space, friendly staff, extremely diverse menu, great outdoor view. Food was delicious!
B. T.Great Place, Great Staff and Magic Food. The Team are working hard and doing their very upmost to ensure everyone gets a table during these trying times.. (thanks covid you D....) They have very much stepped up to the challenge, and even though flat-out on managing bookings and ensuring adherence to Red (aka STOP LIGHT) conditions.. are very sad in turning people away, they remain up beat and continue to deliver the flavors from the kitchen and not to forget something chilled to wash it down with. Cheers Team... we all look to the day when all this is behind us. Meantime, keep cool, carry on. :-)
J. L.We went to the market in the tavern and although it was very small it was very cozy. I would have loved to see a Latin store but it is not always possible. Very welcoming and nice people.
C.This is such an awesome place. 1st of all the atmosphere is great, family friendly. 2nd the food is Awesome. Staff are friendly. Will be there at the end of Jan.
A.New ownership and a new chief have turned this place into a delightful dining/drinking joint. Especially good lunching outside on a sunny weekend.
J. H.Best view in town , massive beer selection on tap and good honest food! What more could you want!
V. C.Amasing lunch, staff doing a great job with the covid restrictions and adapting. Served our large group of kids and family for 31st lunch. Super impressed.
R. P.Great location and great meal. Garden bar is gorgeous and you must try their patented ribs!
C.Delicious food, great service and staff with a stunning venue that allowed us to bring our dogs. Will definitely be back again!
W. K.Food was Excellent and Service could not be faulted. Very friendly we were
made to feel very welcome. Tide was in, with blue skies, slight breeze what more could you ask for.
J.Great setting, tasty food that's well priced, friendly attentive staff. Definitely recommend
J.Really good food and good selection of drinks. Happily recommended 👍🏼
M. F.Excellent service. Nice staff. Tasty burger - cooked perfectly. Good beer.
C.It's a great spot, you don't actually get much better but....... The music the staff put on is absolutely awful, like cringey!
Y. B.Saturday morning flea market , full of food and local crafts shop
J.Great bar and outdoor area. It's busy but feels comfortable
M. S.Must go place. Had the best pork ribs ever. Sauce not to over powering and the pork tasted wonderful and was perfectly cooked. And a huge portion. Good chips. Slaw a bit dry for my tastes but that was a minor. Fantastic service. A lot of so called fine dining restaurants could learn a big lesson from this tavern.
D.Awesome spot, with awesome view, awesome food and nice cold beer!! What more could you ask for!!
T. C.Visited the tavern on a number of occasions. Never fails to impress me.
Check out the gin drinks
T. B.Amazing food! Really nice options, even for vegetarians.
The service was excellent!
No complaints at all.
D. P.Wonderful night at the tavern tonight! Fabulous food, great company with awesome service
S. G.Six of us enjoyed dinner here on Friday night and were pleasantly surprised. Big menu with lots of interesting options! Stand outs were the Hawker Roll and Beef Burger with Smokey cheese. Great drinks list as well. Recommend to all who are looking for a tasty meal in a lovely pub setting!
S.Lovely food great service beautiful views
J. C.Great views, friendly service & yummy food with generous serves. Will definitely go back again next time in NZ.
J. M.Finally for the first time I've had a beer and been to Mangawhai Tavern. Unfortunately even tho its older than the Puhoi pub its all spruced up so doesn't feel like that "ole school pub" but great location
C.Great Spot! The staff are awesome, and the food is delicious!
D. C.Great outlook, friendly atmosphere, delicious meal.
A. V.Good food, but pricey for the service provided. Place needs looking after. Waitresses couldn’t wait for us to finish the meals so they could take the plates ASAP. Really annoying.
K. M.Lovely food and friendly staff. Wish we could stay longer!!
K. “. C.We ordered today's special 'Market Fish' that was really awesomeeeeeeeeeee cus I don't prefer fish but it changed my perception.
S. R.Great food, great staff, loads of kiwi music icons and history and pumping out concerts and events over summer
N. T.I'm gonna leave the great Tav 5 stars cos we've had many a great night here. Food has improved heaps over the years and service is as good as you can expect in a small town. They've got a broad menu and honestly as good as any pub you'll find in a big centre.
I did have to laugh tonight though cos one (very young) waitress was particularly terrible. Brought drinks and didn't clear drinks, dropped food off at wrong table without explanation. Just to be clear I'm not mad and I don't find this a reflection on the establishment... Just a funny note about what can happen in hospo 😂
D. S.Great spot by the harbour. Best Guinness in nz. Chilled vibe, great service and tasty food...
M.Sensational historic pub, great food and love music for a Sunday!
P. S.Stopped here today for a light snack and beer. Staff were great, cheerful nd friendly. Ordered Polenta chips and Jalapeno poppers. Both were delicious. Loved the jalapeno Poppers, hot and spicy. Highly recommend stopping here.
T. R.I parked across the road for 30 minutes. Pizza smelled good. I don't know why google wants me to review you.
3 stars for making my mouth water. Minus 2 stars because you didn't offer to bring a slice out to me in the car.
Thanks,
Tommy
P.Nice market, good vibe, nice people and the sun was out, what else to wish for?
D. R.Really nice place. In fact the whole town was nice. Great food great service lovely staff
s. l.Awesome pub, great menu, excellent service
K. D.Great spot to drink and eat, lovely outdoor area.
G. W.Great old pub - still has a "public bar"!
Tasty food, reasonably priced, cold beer.
If it's a nice day, the view is a treat!
Well worth a day trip!
R. J.A pleasant place to both drink and dine. Those who know the history will be aware of a change. Probably about two years ago there was a change to the operational and interior aspects of the tavern. It changed from a younger adults place of entertainment, to a family orientated place to enjoy. Changes are made to the food menu for Summer and Winter. For those interested there are some good photos of the historic tavern to look at. Outside there is a beer garden with views of the foreshore and upper harbour. Memorable!
D.At the time when we were there, there were around 100 people at the Mangawhai Tavern, so we couldn't enter the premises.
R. G.Great atmosphere, great food and service. We have the best waitress Aaliyah who managed our children amazingly, the fifth star was all Aaliyah. We will go back just for the service.
J. B.Those ribs are a must. Burger look awesome. Had curry was top shelf. Great spot for a few drinks and some great food. Friends and company are optional
l. m.We always go at least once while we are staying up there. We normally sit outside as we have a small dog. Great food good staff.
J. S.Nice bar and restaurant, that's serves nice affordable meals. Has indoor/outdoor option, with good view of inner harbour. Also has great live entertainment outside in the garden bar, through the summer! Also has TAB. 👍
W.The market has all the fun of a trepanning session but without the witty repartee.
A. W.First time visit ...... A lovely spot with beautiful views ......
C. N.Great meal and choice of beer. Lots of seating and although some of the food was not available as it was a long weekend they had plenty of delicious food on the menu. Magical view. Friendly staff.
C. G.Beautiful views. Friendly staff. Good selection of drinks.
T.Market day at Tavern. Great and cheerful staff. Good food.
A.Great Venue for a afternoon lunch and vino.
C. S.Fantastic food. Left the tavern chakablock. so happy with my burgers and saladhere highly recommended. Shout out to Mia the server she is a bowl of energy and very lively gal, very cheerful. All in all, my experience was absulotely great.
S. J.Steak was very nicely cooked but if you're used to authentic Japanese and Malaysian cooking then don't order the karaage chicken and fish Laksa. They looked ok but taste so wrong on many levels. My recommendation: go with the safer options when you are in a country pub.
G. S.Great service with very friendly staff and amazing food. The garlic prawns were delicious
G. H.The mangawhai tavern has gone through a face-lift in the last few years and has benefitted tremendously from it. It has been a venue for music for as long as I can remember and continues to have great bands performing. The food is decent but the highlight is to sit outside and enjoy the views over the estuary.
R.This place was awesome and all the waiters where so nice and where funny at the same time. I had an amazing time there and I loved it. The food and service is great.
R. H.Excellent bar. Great food at good prices. lovely view, and great service.
D. H.We went to the restaurant before quizz night. I ordered a chicken "salad". I assumed this would have the usual salad ingredients. Unfortunately that was not the case. It was all slaw, which I am unable to eat. I picked the chicken out and mentioned to the server that they may want to change their menu to reflect what the meal actually was.
Imagine our surprise when we paid the bill and found we had not been charged. We didn't ask for that but it was offered, and cheerfully.
Great service. My husband had the tagine which he said was wonderful so we will definitely return. Thanks to all the lovely staff who made it a very pleasant evening and went out of their way to be helpful.
G. M.Just left the tav what a fantastic place. Waitresses were bloody awesome very happy and accommodating. The food was on the same level bloody fantastic.cant beat those pork ribs even taking some home for dessert.
Awesome we will return on our next holiday
V. M.Cosy atmosphere with the fire on, lovely friendly and efficient service and a menu that’s a step above the usual pub grub. Definitely recommend!
C. t.Haven't been there for ages- was a good selection of foods, all rather tasty!!
Enjoyed by everyone
H.Our local...amazing location, great to see improvements to the garden bar....new tables and turf over looking a picturesque bay. Live bands and a great vibe. Old school nz small town hospitality....cheers 👍🍺
N.Nice food. Lovely spot.
K.Excellent place for a drink and lunch. Excellent menu. Friendly atmosphere and staff. Will be back
P.Great watering hole with a brilliant Saturday market right on the beach reserve.Pete.
E. L.I like the venue. Location, especially for a ride on the bike is excellent. Please make it smoke free even outside, the man next to us smoking really affected the enjoyment of our meal. My prawns was very garlicky which I liked. My partners meal wasn't very good. Had the fish & chips which he got me to try and it didn't taste quite right. He was really sick later that night. Not so good. Hope it was just a coincidence. Would come again just for the location.
M. R.We had an amazing dinner and a beautiful dessert. The service was fast and the staff did everything they could to help you. The did not skimp on any of the food and it was cooked to perfection. I would highly recommend this place.
L. P.Came with friends for lunch the other day, we all liked ribs it’s tender, juicy and tasty! Was disappointed with another restaurant for the same dish. Will come back again. Like the environment too and service is good.
S. L.It's built 1865 and still in good heart ... long may it trade by the sea
V.Great location, good food friendly staff
M.Great location, service and food
N.Friendly staff, Great people
K.Great food, fabulous views.. but hey the Saturday market is the Best.
M.Fabulous spot by the sea and delicious food
F. D.While this venue is certainly stepping out of its farm-pub past with finer dining and a lick of paint... it still doesn't offer a soy milk alternative in coffee and the menu is rather meat-heavy. The new markets could have been timed better so as not to clash with the original down the road at the local hall but a wide range of vendors have been serving massive crowds. Great for watching touring bands... if the weather's right.
E. P. (.Fantastic out in the beer garden in a nice day.
Right beside the water.
Looks out from the garden right onto it.
Plenty of room for kids to run around both in the garden and out of it on the walkway.
J.Great place, nice atmosphere, cosy fire, served by Michelle who was attentive but not intrusive. Good value and nicely sized meals.We will definately go back next time we're this way.
J.Top notch ribs - excellent sauce. Other food items were average. Service could be improved. General cleanliness should be addressed.
T.Great food choices.
Good staff. Relaxed eating.
T.Delicious food and great customer service. Awesome atmosphere and not too crowded. I ordered a Chicken burger and it came very fast, and tasted amazing! Highly recommend this place to others!
K. S.Excellent food and friendly atmosphere only thing that let things down was the long wait for our food to be cooked and not being informed of the wait or that there were items missing from the menu.
A.Nice service, good atmosphere
M.Excellent great staff great food
P.Great view, nice atmosphere, good selections of beers and drinks. Food was ok: Chicken burger was a little overcooked and dry but beef burger just right. Nice night out!
A. L.Such a fantastic venue during our holiday, a real surprise and delight - as you go from cosy classic NZ Pub vibe and walk out into a massive open social space. Here you'll be sitting at large picnic tables right on the estuary, enjoying amazing delicious food and ice cold pints.. or bubbles.. and if you have kids, they'll love hooning around in that big space too. They even have live music playing in the evening. Whatever your vibe, Mangawhai tavern caters for all in the best way. Absolutely will be back there again!
B. C.Awesome experience guys, you were obviously packed out being peak time on a Friday in January, but all staff were friendly and made sure we were having a great time. big thanks to Chris and the Pizza Chef who went out the way for my new age lactose intolerant girlfriend. Things like that really make a families night. Atmosphere perfect, music was not to loud.
Pizzas was 5 Star, Service was 5+ Star, Atmosphere 5 Star.
Mains 4 Star. There was a bit of a wait for them also, but everything else made us not care.
Cheers team, be back again
M.This place always rocks, fantastic food with great choice. Great ambience and staff
D. “. E.Beautiful setting. My birthday lunch here was a smash hit.
K. L.Food (pie and chicken burger) was rather bland. The chips weren't salted at all. Good service and nice view otherwise.
T.Great food and service , look forward to my next visit .
R. P.Nice atmosphere and spacious. Tavern is located on the waterfront. Its age adds to the character. We had dinner and it was fresh and delicious.
L.Good food & service, lively outlook
L. T.Delicious food in a wonderful, relaxed setting both indoors and outdoors. Great service!
A.Fantastic meals. Great staff. Best fish and chips!
N. O.Very nice. Food was good. Only - this place is a still at the high end. A bit overprice.
K. H.Brilliant location staff super friendly
M. J.Had a good lunch there, on a bus trip, about 25 of us, and they handled it all really well. Nobody had too long to wait, and deserts tea and coffee followed very quickly.
L. M.Quality food. Grossly overpriced fish and chips. Overcharged for the ciders. Oops was the only response when queried. Did refund for the correct amount. I guess tourists are easy targits.
M. B.I had a great chicken burger, my girlfriend had a fantastic set of ribs that she couldn't finish (lucky me!)
A. I.This old place is a really choice spot to enjoy a coldie from the garden bar overlooking the estuary on a magnificent day ..likewise it's also a choice spot to enjoy water pistols, Live music. karaoke, triva night ..or a meal inside or outside rain or shine
M. M.Great food, however no water available. Was told to buy a $3 pump bottle because 'I wouldn't trust the tap water'. As far as I'm aware it's a legal requirement to supply free clean drinking water to customers, especially at an eatery.
S.Great service, food is ok, view should be nice in good condition. Smelly, come in wrong timing ( too many free range kids).
S. B.Steak and Guinness pie was awesome, chicken curry was good.
Good selection of beer and wine.
Staff were great.
G. M.Sorry Mangawhai tavern you let yourself down for the Automatic 80s night paid $35 dollars bar service was terrible only two tills running 25min wait in que and only allowed 2 drinks in little plastic glasses still seemed to pay price of a handle. band was good but you couldn't view it because they were boxed in a marquee inside was closed off with the sides of the marquee even though you had still paid your money. Only 2 minutes notice bar was closing at 11 and not all the people waiting before 11 got served... .rant over great music ......
K. M.Great place to catch up with friends; chilled & relaxed atmosphere. Awesome outdoor area & is really beautiful on a sunny day. Food was good & staff really great. Great place for groups of all sizes.
C.Fantastic food and the manager was great in shuffling tables to accommodate 10 of us on a busy night.

M.Fantastic!! Great atmosphere & a perfect location. Most importantly, the staff were friendly, courteous & helpful. I highly recommend the Mangawhai Tavern!!
