What Shane Egan (Popup) likes about Swordfish Bistro:
Neat club room/bar/bistro Very tidy and well presented. Staff have always been friendly and accommodating. We love dining outside on the deck overlooking the beautiful Bay of Islands. Food is very nice and the beer is cold. Opens at 3:30pm but kitchen doesn’t start mains until 4:30pm. We love it and don’t hesitate to recommend everyone pop in and try for themselves.
