“Parua Bay Tavern is nestled on the waterfront of the beautiful Whangarei Heads Harbour under the majestic Mt. Aubrey and Whangarei Headland. The venue is suited to all – the tavern has two large deck areas and an expansive lawn so it can cater for most group sizes. Lounge with us on a bean bag under the beautiful pohutukawa tree. ”

“Another fine dining restaurant, very popular with the locals. Good selection. Very tasty.”

“Good old fashion kiwi bar with bucket loads of charictor over looking the estuary, child friendly, reasonably priced.”

“Charlotte's has it all. Incredible views of the bay, interesting menu, wood fire pizza, fresh fish choices, great cocktail list, live music, awesome staff. ”

“Great food and then an easy walk to the Mangawhai Tavern to see great bands. Or the Saturday morning markets at the Village and the Tavern.”

“Lovely sunset dining. A bit more exclusive and limited seating so call for reservations!”

“⋒ For a finer dining experience overlooking the harbour. ⋒ Go at night time to see the twinkling lights across the water and the bridge's light works.”

“Food even better than Thailand (trust me I've been) Dine in or Takeaway with a bottle of wine on the deck!”
