Review The Jolly Potter - Temuka

Great food, really nice people. Cosy atmosphere. Have eaten here for the past week as I'm here for work. Really easy and accommodating place

Beautiful meals, fast and efficient service! December 2022 > We're back again, and yet another great experience. Service and food both fantastic. Take the time to stop in, you won't regret it!

Perfect array of Option on the menu and are priced perfectly unlike Austin's. Can't fault the food or Atmosphere but the Service could be a little bit faster.

Went in last Saturday, I had the pork belly which was amazing, compliments to the chef. The service was great as it came out quickly and hot and the staff were super sociable and friendly. Love the vibe of the restaurant, feels cosy and calm. Would 100% go back

Seemed the only option in town beside Fast Food/takeaway, so I ordered a couple of beers and the smash burguer, staff was very nice, and food came out fast. It was a quiet place to enjoy your food and since I am travelling alone that was the kind of ambient I was looking for. I rate 4 star the food cause the burguer buns (good bread) where small for the amount of ingredients and stuff inside the burguer, So in the end I had to use my fork and knive, otherwise perfect

Decided to take the wife and kids out for tea was a nice steak and and wife and the snitizel which was good and kids enjoyed there kids meal withthe sundae 🍨 😋

Food is amazing and the staff are very friendly 😀

Great country style pub. Outstanding service, with a sense of humour. We enjoyed our family meal with you. Thank you.

Stopped for Dinner on journey from Dunedin to Christchurch. Good pub food and large portions. Between our group we had Steak, Chicken Schnitzel Nachos, Big Breakfast and Burger. The place had a steady flow of patrons, a lot of them locals. Nice friendly staff, and a shamrock on the Guinness.

Had the mixed grill which is always great value and also a handle of Speights Old Dark.Friendly atmosphere and excellent service.We sat outside in the sun in the garden bar.Temuka hospitality at its best

Me and my partner had the scotch steak, salad chips and onion rings. The flavour in everything was beautiful! The steak wasn’t chewy and rough, was nice and tender. The chips perfectly seasoned and salad was delicious 🤤. Staff were very friendly and atmosphere was welcoming.

My husband , niece and I were on our way to Dunedin when we decided to stop at a sleepy town, Temuka for lunch. We picked the Jolly Potter. The quirky name took our fancy. I am so glad we went in for lunch. The food was fabulous. It was fresh, yummy and the owners were very friendly. We had fish of the day-pan fried orange roughy on fresh veggies and potatoes, smoked chicken salad and pasta with mushrooms and bacon.

I bought a takeaway chicken pasta meal, service was quick and the meal was delicious. Serving size was very large. The place was full at 6:45 pm on a Tuesday, you would want to phone in advance.

Can’t recommend Jolly Potter enough. Tayla is an absolute star always accomodating to our needs every time we go there. Great food, great service and great atmosphere. Recommend!!

Had tea here last night with a friend and was blown away by the quality of the food, the presentation and the service Highly recommend and will definitely be coming back

Friendly, fun, busy, tasty.<br/><br/>Never skimpy. Never disappointing.<br/><br/>Just a real good feed.

Great food friendly service good idea to book. We have been several times when we good to Timaru to the Masters games and are never disappointed

What I like about the Jolly Potter is you know what you are going to get, its hearty, inexpensive &amp; has that lively small town feel about it.<br/>The food is the way it has always been, large &amp; tasty. Recommend the steaks

Dont know why everyone raves about the Jolly Potter, I found it good but not fantastic!

One of the best places to eat and be entertained this side of the black stump.<br/>The ambiance will lull you into a state of euphoria and the staff will tend to your every whim. An excellent range of beers and wines complment a menu that you will find tantalising. Please do not miss an opportunity to experience " The Jolly "
