You can't go wrong with the $22 burger special, which includes fries and your choice of a nice George drink. The view of the lake is fantastic, and they have two pool tables. The music creates a relaxed atmosphere. I tried the BBQ chicken burger, and it was one of the best chicken burgers I've had in a long time, especially for such a great price.

This was a much-appreciated stop after a rainy motorcycle ride from Rotorua. I can only imagine how stunning the views would be on a nice day, but the cozy indoors was perfect for us in the rain. The staff were friendly and helpful, and we really appreciated being able to enjoy coffee after the usual café hours (5 PM), which helped warm us up. The meaty pizza and loaded fries were delicious and just what we needed. Thank you!

Great food, drinks, and prices! Don't expect anything too elaborate—just solid pub fare! The views of the lake are fantastic! Most of the seating is outdoors, though it's covered, so it can still be chilly. Be sure to bundle up, but blankets are provided!

Such a nice pizza. Good prices and good range of beers. But Friday night bar was closed before 10pm. So sad for us. And they have lot of people even in Level 2. But recommended if you go in early

“The Deck” is the more causal upstairs establishment connected to the restaurant downstairs. The food was very good. The beer was cold. The bartender/waitress was fun. I’d go back!
