Review The Duvauchelle Hotel - Duvauchelle

Seriously great food. Awesome service and good value.

Ok, 5 stars, very rare from me. I figure the starting point is always 3 stars, then up or down from there. We had a great time at the Duvauchelle Hotel. Meals were well above average for a rural pub. Views shown the harbour are fantastic. The owner operator staff are super friendly and accommodating. I even won some money on the rugby but I don't think they can take the credit for that. We will be back.

We done here quite often and we are always warmly welcomed the food is really top quality, see you all again soon.

A nice spot, meals looked massive. When we were there on a Saturday afternoon there was no noise, nit even background music, (live rugby was on so some volume would have been great) tis a hotel after all

Our build team stayed at the motel next door, and enjoyed their evening meals at Duvauchelle Hotel as well as the lunches prepared for them while on the worksite. Very accommodating when bookings needed to be changed and willing to make changes to the lunch menu when needed. Great service! Thanks. The Shed Specialists Co.

Meals were massive and quite good. Huge portions (the $20 chicken wings are great value) and cooked well. Great service even with only a couple front of house staff.

Great food, great owner operators. Nothing was a problem, very accommodating - great menu for all dietary requirements. Thanks!

Lovely warm friendly bar ..when we were there last night we got raffles and snacks on the table Unfortunately we had dinner ready at our friends place but the food looks delicious

First time I have been there won't be my last. Good wholesome tasty kiwi tucker and great service. Well worth a look in.

Nice pub and good meals.

Great food, great service. Loved having a chat with Tristan and Jess, very friendly people who you can always count on for a good chat.

Staff, particularly Nicky ,were fantastic. Her service was excellent. Also, we asked if there was a courtesy coach for ride home. There wasn't,but she drove us home in her own car... Real good service. Meals were great too... Maybe a bigger TV in the bar area to watch the rugby would have been nice.. but overall great night out.

Had meal in the pub, great value for money, very generous portions, we had the Mussels, the Sirlion Steak and the Pork, very happy with food, friendly and welcoming staff, will definitely return.

Stopped here for a steak sandwich on Sunday and it was bloody excellent, better than the steak I had at some posh joint a few weeks before and chips were perfectly crispy. Love a bit of beetroot in a sammy too. Huge portions and fantastic value for money. Will be back at earliest opportunity.

Last night we had lamb shanks. Superb. Tonight we went back and had the fish and chips. Beautiful fish, piles of chips and a huge salad. I couldn't finish mine and I am a big eater. This is perhaps the best pub food I have had in New Zealand for years.

Had just a quick soup of the day here and it was delicious. Creamy soup with bacon and mushrooms (those were correctly pan-fried on side and put into the soup before serving),brown, buttery toast on side. Nice Macs Gold in clean glass. Friendly service. Looking forward to our next visit!

A new owner took this pub on a couple of years ago it's now open which is a great start. Clean friendly spacious pub. Good pub grub a really great option for a break. Happy friendly staff make your stay a pleasure so stop and grab a pint or two. Accommodation available too. If you have been in before please give it another try.

Friendly, happy owner. We had about an hour wait for our food, but it was worth the wait. We had pork belly and pasta of the day. Both were great and well worth the price of about $20 each. I think the long wait was just because it was unusually busy for a Monday night.

Great pub. Delicious, good sized meals. Ordered Roast Pork, Chicken breast, Hamburger. Service was excellent - accommodating of gluten intolerance and meals quick to come out.

Really enjoyed this pub. Great atmosphere, lovely and welcoming and food was great pub grub! Yummo! Had rugby replays on which suited us perfectly and was all well priced. Highly recommend stopping her for a handle or a feed or both �

Stopped on the way to Akaroa for a bite and was pleasantly surprised at the great friendly service along with good value pub meals. They got everything right in quick time and we were very satisfied. Will definitely put this on our list for future stops.

Amazing great place with huge yummy meals. Friendly staff

Booked for a night and dinner, and as usual I was running at least an hour late. The chef stayed late to wait and we had a lovely meal delivered to our room! Faultless service, awesome food, VERY comfy beds and a magic spot to wake up! 10/10
