We live just around the corner, so our regular watering hole of choice. Todd & Dakair who own the place have excellent staff who deliver a great service; combined this with a fab menu which is superbly cooked and you won’t go far wrong for an evening out.

Buzzy place, loved my seafood chowder and hubby loved the mussels. Son's Steak was slightly underdone but they were more than happy to replace with another full meal, we just wanted it cooked a little further. Dessert was delish! We will definitely be back.

Had an awesome experience last night here!

My wife and so ordered the Pap House Ribs which were amazing - and definitely underpriced at only 16.50 each! Would recommend to anyone!

Stopped at Pap House after a really tough Monday to grab a quick bite to eat and a refreshing drink. 

We were really pleasantly surprised with the food, as we were expecting it to have more of a bar feel. The waitress didn't have much clothes on, which made us a bit uncomfortable but, other than that, the experience was really good.

Lovely, flavourful dishes, good service and a friendly atmosphere. Great for grabbing a beer on the weekends when the rugby is on.

Really nice food the ceviche entree was amazing. Table had goat cheese balls, eye fillet, pork belly and fish tacos everyone loved their meals. Chef was attentive he noticed me pointing and talking about the ceviche so sent a waiter to make sure I was happy which I thought was a nice touch from them. House red was not good asked to exchange for a better bottle which they did with no charge or questions. Great service all round especially from the Asian waitress they had on.
There were a lot of people that were obviously having after work drinks who were quite intoxicated, understand that they need to capture all business but would recommend they try to separate diners from drinkers somehow.

Overall was a great restaurant and good to see this establishment (which has historically struggled in papamoa) doing well and will definitely return to try the fish tacos!

Went here for lunch with a friend- it was great for a pub!! They have extremely good choices of beers on tap- and so cheap too!! Had the fish and chips for two- very decent value for money. The chips were exceptionally good- could have used more of these on the plate :-) Service was terse but not unfriendly.

This place is awesome.  It is definitely our favourite place to eat in Papamoa.  We have probably been there 10 times and the food is excellent every time.  The best dish is the prawns with chorizo, which unfortunately didn't make the cut when the menu was refreshed recently, but the chef remembered us and offered to make it especially (great service!)  Hubby and all who have tried it love the pulled pork burger.  Beware it is super juicy.  The prices are very reasonable as the servings are generous.  The staff are friendly and helpful and always check in to see if everything is ok.  We have taken the kids for lunch and early dinners and the staff are great with them.  This place is family friendly, they have colouring in stuff for the kids to do and they even display the art on their wall.  All in all, this is a great local pub with far better quality food than usual pub fare.  This business deserves to thrive.  Thanks Pap House!

I recently had the pleasure of dining and having a few drinks and a party at Pap House. The locals pub well known for its great food and service. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by Bobby, the owner, who was eager to ensure that my dining experience was enjoyable. The restaurant itself was cozy and inviting, with a relaxed family atmosphere that made me feel right at home. And the food...oh, the food! I have to say, I was thoroughly impressed by the quality of the dishes served at Pap House. Every bite was bursting with flavor, and it was clear that a lot of care had gone into the preparation of each dish. But what really stood out to me was the level of service provided by Bobby and his team. They were attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure that my every need and everyone with me was met. Whether it was offering recommendations from the menu or checking in to see how my meal was, the staff at Pap House truly made me feel like a valued customer. I have been back several different times and the level of service is maintained at all times. Overall, I would highly recommend Pap House to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience. The food is exceptional, the service is outstanding, and the prices are very reasonable. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and give it a try - you won't regret it!

Friendly & helpful staff. Great Rhubarb&Apple cider. Ordered ribs and they came our quickly. Generous servings, good amount of sauce- not too little that the ribs were dry and not too much that the ribs were a soup. Crispy chips and good amount of coleslaw. A lot of kiwi favourites on the menu.

Absolutely mean food, very happy family over here. We spent $367 for 6 adults and 1 10 yr old. And we came home with 5 containers of left over food. The meat and seafood platters are Absolutely delish! Pork belly & lamb shanks just melted in your mouth. Boss burger was huuuuuuuge! Had to be dissected to be eaten lol Cabonara & Mac n cheese was yummy! Mac n cheese was a lil bit too cheesy for our cheese lover but he enjoyed it anyways!

A beautiful place from the location to the food to the atmosphere and most importantly for me the service. My family and I absolutely love pap house. A great place to just pop in and enjoy a bevy or treat yourself to something special and order from the menu. Furthermore I once dropped some money there only to be phoned by the manager the next day who had gone out of his way to find it and return it to me. 10/10 all round.

Very nice place for lunch, lovely vibe and reasonable price. Shared a pizza, chips and garlic bread. Chips and garlic bread 10/10. Margarita Pizza was 6/10, it was nice but you can’t really taste a tomato base. We only really tasted the basil pesto. Not sure if the soft drinks were on fountain but they tasted very flat and syrupy.

Log fire was warm upon walking in. Very attentive greeting. Fish n chips always nice and tasty. Ice cream sundaes needed way more sauce and perhaps nuts. L.A.B. was playing in the background which was nice as lead singer grew up in Papamoa.
