I've been here twice before and not really enjoyed the sharing platter. However today decided to try again because they do really awesome cocktails. Service was fabulous and attentive. Cocktails were very good. Food scrumptious. We ordered crispy potatoes, fried chicken and salt n pepper squid. All prepared quickly. Thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Definitely be back for more cocktails and perhaps a pizza.

Nice place, very friendly. I only had time to have a cocktail and the venison carpaccio, but both were very good. I would have loved to come back to play the pinball! but they close early (10pm) but that is normal in Rotorua.

An Asian couple walk into a bar on a Friday night. The waiters steal furtive glances but largely they are ignored. After hanging around for a few awkward minutes they start to feel like Rosa Parks on the wrong section of the bus but having come here at their hotel's recommendation on a cold winter's day they decide to pull up their socks and sit themselves down at the nearest empty table. The table is uncleaned and covered with crumbs and leftovers. Brushing a piece of cheese from his coat sleeve, the husband walks over to the bar, picks up a menu from between two waiters, and returns to the table unmolested. Unsure if they will be able to order, the couple quickly browse the menu and accost one of the wait staff, who replied with, "yes, sure!" The couple ordered some food and beer and breathed a sigh of relief. Now weirdly, every interaction after this was fine. The food was tasty and excellent value but we sure as heck didn't feel welcome. Platters were enormous from what we could see so if you're after a value for money feed this is the ticket.

Great feed! Satay-faction pizza was delicious! And I don't even like pizza much. Get your bang for your buck, size portions were plenty! Staff were friendly and atmosphere were upbeat and chatty!

Really good meal proportions for the price, enjoyed "the goats tribe" and the "lamb and goat pizza" cocktails were great as well. Some constructive feedback the waitress with blonde hair seemed to be unknown of alot of things including lemonade and when we asked dietary questions such as how spicy the lamb was when it said spiced, asking how big the cocktail glasses were might have been a language barrier, but also she did add two milkshakes (only recieved one and asked for one) on the tab when we went to pay. Other than that, thank you to the team for an awesome meal and service. Would recommend anytime, and we will be back in the foreseeable future 😁

I just want to say that the customer service my family received from Christan and Tesh was amazing. (Sorry if I got names wrong or misspelled) Tesh, our waitor was friendly, and all smiles from the beginning, checking up on us, making sure our meal was enjoyable throughout the night. Now I also have to thank Christan for going above and beyond when I simply asked for some ice cubes as my Caramel shake was warm when I received it, and I wanted it cold. He said to go take a seat, and he would sort it out. Low and behold, he had a brand new shake made that tasted delicious and was nice and cold. The food was great, and the BBQ ribs were amazing I have to say. We got the goats tribe meal, which cost $85, and had so many types of meat wedges and salad along with 3 sauces. We only had 4 people, but I believe it could feed up to 6. The environment was nice and gave some rustic vibes. All the drinks we got were modestly priced and delicious. All in all, the best part of my meal was the customer service and friendliness from Christan and Tesh. Thank you both for doing what you are doing.

They would kindly let us in even two minutes after kitchen closed! Really kind waiter brought us very generous extra sauce for our chicken wings, food was very good we had the sliders, wings and salad. Great selection on the residual menu also. Would definitely recommend!

Food was fantastic. My friend and I came in very close to kitchen close but they accommodated for us. I got the satay-licious pizza, it was delicious! My friend got the Margherita and enjoyed it. We both had Mango frozen dauqiries which were strong for our taste but good in themselves. The food portion size was well worth its affordable price! Seating was comfortable and a lively atmosphere!
