Driven passed here many times and thought it was just an old small pub. How wrong ! It’s a bit like Tardis......it’s much bigger inside with plenty of room. Out back there is a large garden with tables, chairs and umbrellas. A good lunch menu choice and generous portions. Even better when you taste it...I had the cod and chips....best fish I’ve had for ages and a lovely crisp light batter.
We won’t drive passed again...just leave time for another visit. Might even stay a night as they have accommodation.
How could you fault this place?! The atmosphere in perfect, the staff go over and above to add to your visit, food is great, good selection of beers and the open fire is perfect. Love this place and can’t wait to be back!
Awesome pub great food great beer great vibes. Try the Cardrona beer sit back in the beautiful beer garden or in front of the open fire place.
I really love it here; the atmosphere is supremely geared to having a relaxing afternoon sitting in the sun having a brew and a bit of a nibble.
Every time we go to Queenstown we always make sure to stop in here.
If you like a laid back vibe, good music, yummy food and a tasty brew then I highly recommend coming here.
Our family of 6 had a fantastic time staying at Cardrona Village and especially loved the Cardrona Hotel, enjoyed dinner there 2 out of our 9 night stay. Food was fantastic, staff wonderful and the atmosphere was amazing, especially the fireplaces. We also got to watch the State of Origin decider and yet another Queensland series win, as the staff were good enough to stay open for us. Don't pass by without stopping in for a visit, you won't be disappointed.
This stunning bit of NZ History. Never fails to satisfy, although very busy the staff were friendly and efficient, meals were excellent, as was the local brew, well worth the drive out from Wanaka.
best place to go to when the temperature drops for the winter. Nachos, fried chicken, speights beer plus warm open fire
One of my favourite pubs. Well worth a scenic drive from Queenstown. Great in summer and winter. Fantastic food, historic setting and friendly staff
Stopped here with a large group or 20ish. Very accommodating and the food was amazing. Great selection of wines, and the local cardrona pinot was spot on. Great surroundings and beautiful pub. A+
Just like to say thanks we had a great stay, loved the food. All the staff we met were consistently friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, our room was immaculately clean, all this combined provided an awesome place to spend our 28th wedding anniversary. There is a fun atmosphere whilst still cosy and inviting to all. Great location a little slice kiwi of heaven
We've been traveling around the South Island since last Saturday, slowing making our way back to Picton via the West Coast & Deep South. Called into Cardrona yesterday for breakfast, NOT disappointed! Husband had the big brekkie, I had the waffles, yum! I also had a massive case of food envy! The potato rosti is delicious! Having ate most of the husbands I had to get another!! Great coffee, excellent staff! Love the place! We just wish we had known about the accomodation, if we had we would've booked to stay instead of in Wanaka, next time definitely!
Fabulous, great place to stay, great food, wine and beer
Great old pub, friendly staff with a standout beer garden in a great location.
Amazing food, great service & friendly staff. The room was cosy. Absolutely amazing place to stay for a slice of NZ history.
Absolutely beautiful. Well worth a visit, on holiday and our Son & his wife took us here for lunch last week. Rainy coldish’ day, sat at the log fire table for lunch. Food, Staff & Place were all perfect! Do visit as you won’t be disappointed with anything! Well Done All!
