About

After enjoying Claphams Clocks - The National Clock Museum, it may be a nice idea to visit this bar. You will like its food, particularly nicely cooked beef cheeks, nacho chips and beef nachos. Cooks at Loco do their best to provide guests with good churros. According to the guests' opinions, waiters offer delicious margaritas or good beer. The cosy atmosphere of this place makes visitors feel relaxed and have a good time. The high ratings of this spot would be impossible without the courteous staff. Professional service is something clients agree upon here. As most reviewers remark, fair prices are not the strongest point of this bar. But google users awarded Loco 4.4.

I’ve been to Loco many times and you never know what you’re going to get. When it first opened the cocktails were always amazing, food fresh and tasty but over the last year I’ve been disappointed in the food and service. The portions of food seem to be getting smaller and the quality has changed quite a bit. Service has been poor the last couple of times I’ve been even when it’s not very busy. Price per person $30–40 Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 3

After visiting the Hundertwasser Museum, stopped at Loco for a rather late lunch just as they opened. The staff were wonderfully friendly; had a nice drink selection; great food; and an excellent Chili sauce selection (so many to choose from!). Ollie was a wonderful host; highly recommend for relaxed drinks and eats.

Had a fantastic family Sunday lunch here at Loco with our dog. Gemma and her crew provided great service even for our dog. The food was awesome,delicious,and delivered quickly. The nachos had the fillings layered so every chip was used. So good A+++ recommended

We went to this place because it was the busiest place in town, so we knew it had to be busy for a reason. Great atmosphere and plentiful menu. We loved our meals (vegetarian), got them promptly, and they were decently sized. We found out later they were understaffed, but you wouldn't have known. Great value for money, faultless service ALL of the staff were great, highly recommend!

Manager must have over booked and when noticed we were still ordering drinks advised us that one of the person from our group was stumbling and she couldn’t serve which we agreed but she came back and she said she is not comfortable serving anyone and put a sign down for a booking for 6.30 pm. I asked her why she did this and she said she is not comfortable serving us anymore and that she had booking st 6.30 had nothing to with it. She stayed hidden after that and made someone else take the payment from us. I have never had such poor service any where in Whangarei ever. Your poor management doesn’t constitute for emergency on my part especially when we are spending roughly $100-$200 per person every hour at your establishment. You really need to hire better staff/managers because it is not good enough. Price per person $100+ Food: 3 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 3

Ordered Nachos, got more Tomato than meat and don’t get me started on the amount of chips hahaha ordered a Pina Colada, never got it. If you trying to lose weight come here for food. On another note, great music, staff was decent, lovely vibe and painful place for your wallet if you are getting on the drinks. Price per person $30–40 Food: 1 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 5
