Gladstone Inn - Paraparaumu

Great. Great hospitality, great food, great landscape and great mousses. We had chicken chips, fish and chips and a Brownie Sunday. Everyone was perfect. They were very friendly to our Greyhound we brought, and several cartridges came to our table to house the dog. What an excellent way to spend the afternoon after a short walk around the Carter Scenic Reserve.

Went here with a group and we ordered pizzas! There is a great range of pizzas to choose from including Pear and Walnut, pulled pork, Hawaii, cheese and more. With a thin base and the crunchy edge they were delicious! Loads of cheese too. We also ordered the fries which were beautifully cooked crunchy on the outside and fluffy in the middle. The large green space was great for the kids to run around on! And being on the large verandah meant we had the fresh air with the protection of the verandah. The staff were super helpful. Even going above and beyond when one child with sensory issues felt her sandals were too dirty and helped mum clean them. It is dog friendly environment, but you must be seated outside. Facilities are clean and tidy.

Great rural pub with gorgeous Riverside outdoor dining area. Delicious food.

Great menu with good range of options. The staff are friendly and efficient and the food came out quickly. The atmosphere was warm and congenial. In winter, you may want to get seated near the fire. In the summer outside by the river is great, and dog friendly. All up, a great country pub.

Visited this place with rather a big group so had to be patient, little disappointed with food choices, nothing light like salads etc just mainly pizza and fried type food. Great atmosphere in the lovely country style pub situation.
