We went for a beautiful drive and ended up in Apiti just as the kids were getting hungry. We stopped for delicious fish and chips and wedges! We even had a game of pool with the kids - a first for them. :) Really friendly place, good service and yummy food! Nice way to end our Saturday. :)
Grabbed takeaways last night the chips were the nicest I’ve had in awhile, non greasy but full of flavour. But the pizzas were incredible, delicious homemade style ! Lovely staff and great atmosphere also held a group function here recently too, awesome selection of food to choose from and easy to do. Thanks !!
Apiti Tavern is well worth a stop! The steak was great, and the chips were unreal. Super friendly staff, and helpful locals! I thoroughly enjoyed my time there. A top notch kiwi pub :)
Apiti Tavern is definitely the place to be! Friendly and accommodating staff, who take the time and make the effort to ensure their customers have a great time! & absolutely top notch AWESOME burgers
Amazing hospitality. Staff recommended we park our bus in the tennis court out back that has been fitted out with power connections for motorhomes. (Though we had no need for power.It was a safe and relaxing place to stay for the night, with a bonus of only a few steps from back door to bed)Great place for a meal, talk with locals and enjoy the country pub atmosphere. Staff and locals even played pool with this old duck. Had plenty of laughs Even the wild life ensured you have a peaceful night sleep. We did make sure the gate was closed on leaving. Didn’t want the Moa’s And kiwi’s to escape. A must to see and enjoy !! Will be back.
Stopped off a the Apiti Tavern for lunch today. Awesome service, great menu, amazing food and a lovely atmosphere. Recommend this as a great place to stop.
Best place in new zealand staff were the best and locals were awesome
Found there website very informative for local activities.
Went here for late lunch today.
Staff really helpful with directions and food was delicious!!
Definitely worth stopping to if you're in the area (or even 3 hours away from ) � thanks for the great service and food!
Just stopped by for a few beers and Death by Chocolate, awesome place and great food! Will definitely be making regular visits
Lunched here today, and enjoyed great food and great service. Even the weather played ball and we could sit on the rear terrace and soak in the clean country air. Would have to go a long way to find better value and friendlier service. Thanks guys.
Steak & chips went down a treat, Service is good and the beers cold. Worth the scenic trip 10/10.
Fantastic meals and great value for money, the staff are very attentive as well.
Great place active community minded business . recommended .
Awesome place to stay with the Motorhome, parking was on the asphalt with powered sites and the hospitality of the management and locals was exceptionally.
Second time visiting here. Had the most delicious lunch (one of the nicest pork belly I've tasted) and the staff are very welcoming and friendly 😀
Awesome slow cooked bbq to share!
Great pub to visit for a Sunday lunch. We cycled out and the publican is so friendly, kindly lit the fire for us. The pizza is fantastic. 👍
Have cycled to this pub, have motorcycle to this pub. The reception is the same. The staff are fantastic. How the chef remembered all our orders by memory I'll never know.
Had the Kimchi chicken, spicy but delicious. Friends had the fish burgers and Sirloin stake, no complaints from our table.
2023 Sunday lunch, incredible meal, quickly served and amazingly delicious, this time I had the lamb served in pastry which was amazing, my wife fresh back from the States complimented the chef on his ribs. All four of us had a different meal and can't wait to go back again. Thanks Apiti Tavern staff, really appreciate your concern when one of our party fainted. All good and rearing to return for another amazing meal.
Just home from a lovely lunch, lamb shank and vegetables. Great service lovely staff thanks guys and girls. 😁👍
Lovely sticky ribs, AFC chicken burger and pork belly very nice meals tonight 😋 5 star meals great restaurant in the manawatu love this place very friendly staff ☺️
Amazing service (best we’ve experienced in years), outstanding food, the perfect experience and great memory for our first Mother’s Day - will be back again as soon as we can. The trek from Palmy is well worth it 💯 Thanks team 🙌
This place is a real gem.
Proper country pub but with great food and awesome service.
Definitely worth the detour off the main trunk
We had a work mid winter gathering here. Mostly the crowd went with the slow cooked fare and loved it. However I had a steak from the menu. Oh. My. God. It was EPIC! Tender, rare as ordered, and the home made chips were super crispy and salad yum! Nothing to fault. Take the trip, sooo with the food. AAA+++
This place is - fantastic. Outstanding food and great friendly staff. Don’t miss out on this hidden stop - here are a few of the desserts- but the ribs etc are great! Nice local atmosphere, play pétanque and enjoy a drink or two

OMG this pub should be on everyone's list of places to visit. We went for a drive on Sunday for lunch, were greeted with a smile, they asked our names and form that point on addressed us by name with every interaction we had, customer service plus.
The meal was incredible the brisket burger is every males dream lots of meat, the pork belly noodle salad was so tasty I didn't share it. And very reasonable for the food and drinks, we will be back.
