A bar and restaurant on Commercial Street in Tākaka, Golden Bay, built as an alternative space for locals and travellers to enjoy music, food and craft beer. It has a bespoke Tubs Audio sound system, an outdoor open fire, and 12 taps of craft beer, with a focus on Tasman beers.
The menu focuses on local, sustainable and ethically sourced food, and the website says the burgers are well known across New Zealand. The bar hosts local and international producers, DJs, bands and singer-songwriters, and its events are listed on Facebook. The owner is Holly Osmond. Our pick in Tākaka for a night of music and craft beer by the fire.
