Second time I have been here and both times the food and the service were top notch. Staff were very attentive and we didn't have to wait long for anything. The food was delicious and cooked perfectly. In fact it had me wanting a second lot. But I had to behave. Would definitely recommend people visit when they are down that way
Meals can be inconsistent with portion sizing other than that everything was great, friendly staff and great drinks
The Kaiapoi Rock n Roll from Christchurch booked for a meal on Saturday & Sunday evening for a group of 20.We only had a 2 hour dinner break We were all impressed with the quick service, lovely meals and friendly staff. Highly recommended.
Had the lamb shanks which were amazing and honestly, the best I've had in a long time. Service staff were very attentive, friendly & happy to chat which was a welcome change. I don't normally have dessert but so pleased I did...the mud cake matched with the glass of port was just divine. I wish I lived in NZ to experience more of your food. Thank you �
We were shown a table very quickly with no booking and on a busy night. Three of us had steaks and we were all very happy.
Would recommend for a great meal.
Service was fantastic....our meals were delicious and well presented, lovely busy hum to the place, but the wait staff were very attentive. Well priced for what we received and the Fathers Day gift was a nice surprise at the end...definitely be back�
Great food, great atmosphere, and Mikaela the waitress needs a pay rise, she had awesome customer service skills.
Cheers Michelle from Australia.
The best ribs ever!!!
I really like their Ribs!
Sauce, slaw, chips and so perfect 🥰
Also the cheesy cauliflower is very interesting! I have never tried this kind of texture and flavor before.
Chewy cauliflower 😋
Visited Wed night last week as a group. Was going to order steak, turns out Wed is $29 special. However, I missed the fact that it differed from regular steak meal options ( no sauce options/salad), but the steak was cooked perfectly(med/rare) and was more than enough. Asked for small Brut bottle, not available, only rose by glass, picked another option. Service quick and friendly, food piping hot😁
Loved everything about our visit - food was delicious, waitresses were amazing, efficient and polite - the epitome of great service. Thank you so much, definitely a place to visit. I had ribs - you can take the bone out and just enjoy - succulent and juicy. The rest of the table had also enjoyed sirloin steak and chicken parcel. Overall we all had a great night.
The beef cheek pie here was absolutely amazing. Service and selection of beers and other drinks also great. Partner had the ribs and highly recommends. Not too busy on a Wednesday night, food came out quickly. Great customer service.
Food was delicious. I had the beef cheek pie which was so good. Service was excellent and professional. They were busy but friendly and organised.
Party of 6, lovely place with very good service. It was busy (The Vic across the road was closed for dinner that night..) and our lights flickered when our time was almost up, reminded me when I used to venture the Pool Room in town., which was kinda funny. Wasn't Wasn't problem though as 1.5hrs was ample time to done and gas bag.
Everyone was happy with their burgers and I just loved the Beef cheek pie. Its huge so portion wise it's fantastic! Because of this you may need to ask for more gravy. It was the perfect meal for a cold wet wintery day.
Freindly Staff and awesome service. Food was great. Great variety of food from Chicken, Lamb, Pork, Veggies. Will come back.
Went there for the first time. It was a work gathering and the service was on point but the best part was Hats off to the CHEF for his highly delicious shearers shank meal. Everything melted in the mouth and the meat was coming off the bone and the broccoli 🥦 was on point too. Defz taking my Husband here.
Keep up the great hospitality Speights's Ale House :)
We booked out the private function room for a 60th and the venue was absolutely perfect - followed by incredible service from Justin and his team. Food options for the night were perfect. Lead up to our event Justin and his team were very helpful. Barstaff/ bartender for the night were awesome and accommodating was really the cherry on top. They had lift access available for our less mobile attending Highly recommend all around 10/10
Had the bacon cheeseburger. It was excellent. Starters were tasty. Service was first class. Portions were generous - as per their slogan. Really good vibe. We will be back!
Great atmosphere, very attentive service, food was great. My meal was particularly delicious. Slow cooked beef cheek pie served with roast potatoes.. everything about it was fabulous. Thanks so much 👌
Great beer and excellent pub food. Have eaten here many times and hot meals are always consistantly good. The service can vary but C-19 has likely caused this on this recent visit. I would still recommend a visit 😊
Wellington on a plate burger from speights ale house is bloody good. Also came on Wednesday steak night. Hard to choose. I got the burger an my partner got the steak. I had to steal some from her as it was awesome aswell. Great place
Folks are welcomey. If you are looking for a 5 dollar meal, think again. TSAH offer variety of delicious meal that will compliment your palate. And, If you are looking for south east asian delicacies or middle eastern, the next door shop is open for you.. 9/10 will visit again.
Went for Mothers Day dinner. We had no booking but Justin found us a table no problem even though they were really busy. Food came out quickly and our meals were amazing. Staff very nice, lovely atmosphere and to top it all off a box of chocolates for me , for Mothers Day. Thanks Team AMAZING
Went on a Sunday and opted for the 2 bar snacks for $22. Great option for a casual lunch with a couple of drinks
Staff were efficient and cheerful and didn't feel rushed by them
Place was clean, toilets included.
Happy to visit again
