Review Mokihinui Tavern - Murchison

Update: have subsequently returned, and I don’t know how they did it but the burgers are even better than I remembered. Honestly the best pub burger I have ever had, and also one of the best value burgers in the country. If you do one thing while you’re north of Westport, GET A BURGER HERE! Great food, amazing value, friendly locals. Best steak burger I have had in years. Just like any small-town pub, if you walk in expecting applause for just showing up, you’re in the wrong place (which is what I suspect happened to the negative reviewers below). If you go into a small town pub with a bad attitude, you’re not going to have a good time. There’s two signs outside, one says “best burgers, coldest beers, most modest proprietor”, and the other one says “no idiots”. This says it all really. Basically, don’t be put off by the negative reviews. Give it a try and you won’t regret it.

Great food at extremely good prices! I came here two nights in a row as it was so good. Definitely better than Grumpys down the road (though that wasn't bad). The people here can come across stand offish at first, but they're really relaxed and friendly. Typical West Coast vibes here! Will be back at the nearest opportunity.

Oh yes, amazing. A great place to stay, friendly local people, but if you expect to be congratulated to have found the place, you're definitely at the wrong place. YOU should congratulate yourself because you will get a great freaking burger for a low price. Cheers, no worries and you're welcome, guys.

Great staff and wonderful food. Thank you.

Superb place! Warm, hospitable and some of the finest bluff oysters I've ever had

Great meal, nice atmosphere

Fantastic Pub! Clean and tidy. Friendly patrons and awesome proprietors...oh and the Burgers, make sure you go there hungry

Nice wee pub. Pub grub looked yummy but busy with locals on the evening we called in and not particularly welcoming so not able to talk to anyone about whether or not the kitchen is able to cater to allergies. Nice cold beer and cider 😋

Great to have the old boiler cafe where we can all go and enjoy the company of locals and holiday makers owners Mel and Paul very helpful and always happy to see everyone

Very clean and cosy. Great priced food. And free pool!

Great food and drink selection at a very reasonable price and very friendly staff.

Simple fare done with flair,, Pub n Grubb with bar on the premises. Great atmosphere.

Great place to have a good meal great atmosphere excellent service will be back.

One of the best fish N chips. Great value.
