Huapai Tavern

Feels like home! Great food with great service.

Kids friendly- only $12 for a great amount of good food and plus, free ice cream sandwich for dessert.

The kids had the best day ever!

Went for lunch and got lots of food at once and it was very busy as there was a band due to play. Was ready within 20 minutes and it was piping hot and delicious. Would highly recommend.

Sunday just gone was first time back since COVID - now we can understand what we have been missing. Place was jam-packed and rocking to a great band, atmosphere totally friendly and welcoming. Can't wait (till next Sunday) to do it all again.

Atmosphere was awesome.
100% highly recommended!
The Band was good, we will be back, food was great Cheers.

Our favourite local spot never ever has this place ever disappointed. The food is delicious and very affordable.

Was really enjoying my self with whanau today, until the bar tender said we have had a complaint from others for having fun.

We were seated outside the tavern the whole time we were there and were abruptly cut off by a bartender without prior warning for "being too loud. " It was allegedly a customer complaint, but we were not convinced as we were the only group of a darker skin tone than the rest who frequented the bar that day.

A proper pub with plastic seats and cold beer. Bonus beautiful garden you can drink in. Decent Guinness, ashtrays laid out on every table in the smoking area.

Love coming to tavern to listen to the bands have lunch and a boogie lots of fun great atmosphere

Was living in Auckland for over 30 years. But now live in the Naki.
So was my first visit. Lovely vibe. Friendly people and staff. Only stayed for one beer. And didn't have a meal. So hence the 4 stars.

One of the friendliest bars I've ever been in on my travels around the world. Staff were nice and good at their job. The owner was a lovely lady. The place was clean and served excellent food. I would thoroughly recommend it to everyone passing through Huapai.

Very friendly people. Awesome little pub.
Would definitely call in again and would recommend

My wife & I went to the Huapai pub tonight & ordered the large Nachos. & when the Nachos come they were such a Small amount hardly any meat & the corn chips were all burnt on top. Will Not be going back to this Pub again, if that was a Large Nachos hate to see how small there small Nachos are.what a Rip OFF

There are Great staff and such a friendly place to go. Had an awesome live band on a Sunday afternoon. Really enjoyed it and it was packed. Very nice food as well. Will go back again.

Great pub meals, burgers are awesome, highly recommend the works burger.

The pub does show it's age, dating back to when smoking indoors was a thing, so there is still the lingering odour of ciggies, but the beer is cold and the food is good, so I can ignore that

A group of us Seen a band here yesterday, great band actually Dire striaights tribute band. We took our dog, border collie, asked the lady at the door if we could go outside to the courtyard with the dog and she said yes. We parked the dog up up at our feet at an outside table with us we, ordered a drink and some chips. A old lady who worked there spotted the dog and said you have to leave no dogs allowed, we were like ok but we asked if she could come in and the bar lady said yes, the old agressive lady NO DOGS you need to LEAVE NOW! I said, well hold on we just got a drink and food can we finish up our drinks and take the dog home then? NO YOU HAVE TO GO NOW, and stormed off! So then another woman came out and read the riot act but did allow us to finish up drinks and leave, which we did. My dog was perfectly behaved their was no need for all this agression fair enough if thats your policy however make sure all your staff know about it perhaps, and yi know their is a way to talk to your customers. We take our dog everywhere and pubs are always welcoming of well behaved dogs in outdoor areas. The band finished at 6pm, then the staff put these lights on that were as bright as the sun shining into the patio tables where we were sitting, we asked if she could turn them off she said NO and don't bloody turn them back on! LOL. Huapai, you could of got another couple of hours of dinner service from this crowd who were relaxed and happy. Shocking way to treat customers

We had a very nice lunch and drinks. Kid's menu for grandson. Garden bar was clean and tidy lots of flowers in the well kept garden.

Stoped for a few beers and lunch whn we were on a ride, been a long time since i was here, well worth the stop

Nice beer garden. But the food was awesome. It was cheap tasty and very filling. Highly recommend. We will be back.

The food here is next level. Totally surprised and will definitely be back. Good value for money and friendly staff.
