Popped in for a coffee and a steak meal due to being overtired and a little bit "off balance" diabetes wise.
Staff were excellent and very professional. (I had to leave the salad. Forgot to ask for it to NOT be included 🙃).
Felt much better after the meal and made it home safely.
Nice cozy place and was the perfect stop on a road trip. Food was tasty and the staff were kind. Lots of friendly dogs roaming around and a good atmosphere.
Heading back from Hastings to Wellington decided on a stop for lunch. Great decision. Staff were personality plus. Meals very yummy .fire, beverages and locals awesome. Dog friendly and If you don’t have one Buster is very willing for a pat or leftover. Will definitely stop here again
Great meal, great atmosphere loved it
Visited for lunch on two days at the weekend. Friendly hosts, great food, loved the venue. Reminded me of English pubs. They have casual accommodation too. A retreat worth a visit for Hawkes Bay residents looking for a destination on the weekend. Only 30 minutes away. The two sisters, Colleen and Wendy have created something special here.
Great pub and the garden area is awesome spot to break your journey in the sunshine. Food and coffee was excellent. Staff are lovely, chatty, friendly, and the pub dog is super attentive :) will definitely be stopping in again.
Good old country pub and good food fun atmosphere and dog friendly lots of parking and open for lunches
A great place to encounter the locals.
Fantastic little pub with a big family feel. The atmosphere was fun and welcoming, you feel like you're amongst old friends, such a great place to meet for a brew and a bite.
The accommodation upstairs is comfortable and clean. I recommend the Sawyers Arms if you need to stay in central Hawkes Bay!
Excellent place to stop and rest when travelling the long roads of central Hawkes Bay. Had bangers and mash, which were local produce and really good! Buster the lab is one of the most friendly dogs and welcomes everyone who arrives here.
An oasis in a parched countryside. We were greeted by a very enthusiastic host who politely checked and scanned our covid passes. As one of our party was in a wheelchair she offered us an onside table but we all wanted to sit in the shade of the outdoors. Out host sanitized the table and took our drinks and meal orderes.
In no time she was back with our drinks which were quickly followed with our delicious meals. My chicken gourmet burger was delicious but I think the guys who ordered the blue cheese and beef burgers were the winners of the most substantial meal. All in all a fantastic experience and yest another spot to pop into when traveling to Napier or Hastings.
I have driven past a number of times and never got the impression this was worthwhile calling into, how wrong I was, my first impression was totally off the mark. Stopped in for lunch with our car club, bright and modern inside, very clean and restored beautifully. The meal portions are very generous and a great price, real value for money. I listened to the comments made by many in our group and they were all very positive. Will be my stop when passing by from now on.
This is a Hawaiian Pizza. As you can see I have already started to Eat it. The wife and I went to The Sawyers Arms on Sunday 20th June. The wife got the seafood Platter and I went for the pizza. This was one fully loaded pizza, whole pineapple rings and heaps of the other fillings. I had to take some home. But I couldn't fault anything. What an amazing experience. A true country pub with great food. The wife and I are planning a Saturday night stay with great food and hopefully a awesome Saturday atmosphere. Guess this means we are going back.
Great pub and really good quality food in big portions. Nice pool table and beer garden. Main kitchen opens at 5:30pm for dinner but they have bar snacks available before.
Excellent fish meal! Crispy beer batter moist tender fish! Great service .nice outdoor setting. Easy off road parking. You have to stop and check it out!
Sorry no photos, great spot on SH 50 for a cheap beer and feed. Indoor outdoor seating, plus a playground, which isn't that great! Plenty of parking even when busy, staff lovely.
This is a great little family pub. Good indoor outdoor flow. Nice garden bar with kids play ground. Lots of live music. Separate dining room good for private functions. Comfortable accommodation and great food
Best feed of fish and chips we've had in ages. Great service, very friendly staff. Enjoyed Buster's company too.
Big botts , good burgers, service improved, smile be nice but was thanked for taking dishes back to bar. Good garden bar. 👍🏻
