We have been here quite a bit since it first opened. It should go to the next level, but it has stalled at a 3.5 to 4 star, but it never quite gets there. It's all okay and not bad, and we're happy going back now and then. had a few sub-par meals and good ones; the broad, ever-changing beer selection is excellent and allows you to try new things occasionally.

This is the best bbq I have had in the South Island (possibly NZ) and I travel all over the country frequently . P.S if you like a bit of hot spice order the Korean hot sauce as a side ! Phenomenal! The friendly service is as good as the food. Last but not least the beer selection is great! I don’t often give five stars but this spot sure deserves it!
Asked for separate room for group of 15, ended up in main area with 2 separate tables! Absolutely the worst service I've ever come across!!! Nobody acknowledged us, didn't tell us to order at the bar...we waited and waited .. I myself went and got bottles of water and glasses for table, found the salt and peppers myself, food was reasonably good...but don't order wedges with cheese and bacon unless you like CHEESE SAUCE..Not real cheese. They never once asked how was the food, did we want more Drinks, and by the time they came back to take desert orders, there were only 4 instead of the 9 who were going to!!
Needs a manager who knows how to run a restaurant..and be friendly..and smile 😃 and thank people for coming along... which we won't do again. Sad!!!

The atmosphere and drinks pretty good. Steak and chips not the best. Came with no sauces. Had to ask at extra cost was ok but felt strange to ask. No sides on menu listed. Coleslaw looked store bought. Neat to have drink specials showed on whiteboard, was sat in front of table on chair but needed to be removed not left their during our entire meal.
Beer is fantastic 9.5/10
Food is decent 7/10
Atmosphere is awful, the music was too quiet, the lighting was the wrong colour and too bright, round tables are used and paint on them makes everything stick to it. Service was very inexperienced and not proactive or interesting. Have been a second time and staff said they were full and didn’t try to make us fit in at all. Even for a drink if you want a pub experience and beer focus you need to be able to flow walk ins in and out or the culture will never develop.
Great delicious food thats made wonderful with friendly staff.

Food is amazing! Awesome to have something different here in Invercargill. Unfortunatley the whole experience was let down by the customer service and the overall atmosphere of the place. Music was really quiet, staff made no small talk so it was very uncomfortable ordering drinks and standing there in silence waiting for them. Felt like we needed to rush and were told we had to be out by a certain time. There was only us and another table eating in there at the same time .... would of tried the dessert special if we werent told a time to leave. The list could go on.
Place would be booming if someone sat down and spent time focusing on what the customer experience should look and feel like.
