Bar pub in Dunedin

“I've tried a lot of roasts in Dunedin and hands down this is the best. The lunch special with desert is really good value and the staff are really lovely. This is a gem, would highly recommend the meals and atmosphere. They have a chef who knows what they are doing.”

“I had a great dine-in experience here. The atmosphere was very good and the servers were very polite and helpful. Unfortunately I ordered a main gnocchi dish and got a spaghetti starter instead but i was hungry enough to not care or say anything. Regardless the pasta was delicious and the restaurant was also able to provide complimentary parmesan to accompany my meal. The portion size of the hot chips for a starter was big and great value. Thanks for the great hospitality!”

“My five stars that I've given are all for our server who was Harshit. Harshit was very helpful, friendly, prompt and made the dining experience very positive. I have to add how good the ambience was beautiful surroundings. My husband and I appreciated watching the birds as we looked out the window while dining. (Not all seagulls)”

“Great place to be back and reminisce.. Still great atmosphere to celebrate after watching the Rugby game Highlanders v Hurricanes at the Forsyth Barr stadium. Recommend to all...”

At Cobb at the Railway Station, the menu stays classic fish-and-chips, served with an easygoing pace. Sides support without crowding the star. Pricing lines up with the offer. Portions are generous yet well judged.

On the plate at Mornington Taphouse, the idea is classic fish-and-chips and well executed. Noodles arrive glossy and well seasoned. Meat‑free options are woven into the menu. Pricing lines up with the offer.

“Hamburger and chips were delicious. Friendly old bloke behind the bar was great!”

“The Law Courts Hotel is a lucky find for us and anyone else who wants to camp in the middle of Dunedin. Perfectly located a couple of hundred metres from the Octagonal. Surrounded by any number of great cafes, restaurants, shopping, museums and event centres. An added bonus is the pub style restaurant which is part of the bar downstairs. Well priced (we were initially attracted by a special deal) the lower levels have just undergone a major renovation with updates planned for rooms ahead. Due this, I rate the room as a 4 star with a dated shower but superking bed was comfortable and new. Establishment well managed and maintained. Highly recommended. This is our new favourite downtown overnight stop. P”
