Northcote Tavern

A country pub a stones throw from the city. A great place to hang out any day of the week. The field is magic in the summer full of families and pets. A unique kiwi experience.

Used to be a regular back in the day. The catering is under new management, it wasn't too bad before but now its really good. Well priced meals, well presented and well cooked. The only reason it wasn't a 5 star (i really wanted to give it 4.5) was that our table remained uncleared until our puddings arrived, and the brownies were slightly burnt on the bottom. But thats nitpicking. Be warned, don't eat anything before ordering as the dinners are a good size. Footnote, they were pretty busy.

First time to the Tavern. We all had a lovely time. The staff were helpful and friendly. And the food was exceptional. Looking forward to go back and trying something different off the menu. My son gave it 6 stars out of 5

Great old school pub with good range of food and beers. Lovely outdoor area for summer and fire inside in winter.

Great outdoor area & food, could use a little playground for the kids but there’s a good bit of grass

Valentines dinner. Pink gin & tonic with strawberries & blueberries. Steak & mushroom sauce, egg, chips & salad

Northcote Tavern is a great place for recreational purposes, whether you're there for and after work drink or a family gathering, the tavern has it all. Northcote Tavern serves a large variety of drinks, and the food is very good! They have delicious fish and chips, burgers, potatoes and mash, and a lovely range of deserts. Over all I think The Northcote Tavern is an awesome place to be! (four stars because there is always room for improvement)

Great: efficient, polite service even for s large group, lovely food, reasonable prices. Would definitely support again.

Great beer, friendly caring staff, relaxed layout with heaps of zones. Plenty of parking except when its busy. Food is great quality esp the chicken. Cheers Northcote Tavern

Very good place. Excellent indoor and outdoor areas for families. Great drinks place in the area. One of the best place.

Ate there tonight. Food was discussing. Food has totally gone downhill. Shame, food use to be so good.

Immaculate old school kiwi pub combined with beer garden/green space. It's a must see kind of place

We visited for the first time on Monday and don’t know why we hadn’t gone sooner. We enjoyed some drinks on the lawn and friends ordered some food. Great service!

4 stars for dog friendliness. Beers - standards, no blacks or sours on tap/bottle (other than Guinness). Decent pub food.

Very popular in the weekend as it has a beer garden with space for the children to play and climb trees. Inside is more like an English pub with pub meals. Meals are large but average quality.

Used to live 4 doors up, the place is still the same, we had a big family gathering of about 25 ppl, they had no problem catering for us and all the other patrons, food was great and fast, highly recommended

On Tuesday 29 December 2020 I attended a luncheon with a group of seniors (table 1). The lady behind the bar was friendly and very helpful.
The food, with plenty of options available, was very good with good friendly service. A very enjoyable experience. Many thanks.

This is a great local pub. The garden bar is lovely on a sunny afternoon, and the tables are well sheltered with sturdy sun umbrellas. The food is classic pub food, the kids loved the fish and chips. Burgers pretty tasty too. Kids meal comes with a free icecream and sprinkles which was met with excitement. Good place to catch up after work too. Staff very helpful, service efficient.

This is the place for a drink or a fantastic meal. Well worth the visit.
First visit and we will be back soon. The Scottish theme evident throughout makes it a great venue.

Such a great tavern. Awesome atmosphere and a lovely outdoor area which is perfect for a nice summers day. The food is delicious and the staff are great.
