Sit back beside the open fire, or dine alfresco on the banks of the Waikato River and treat yourself to a mouth-watering selection of prawn dishes (or non-prawn if you prefer), with the perfect wee drop to accompany of course. Our restaurant is ideal for entertaining the kids too, with a special kids' menu and kids' play areas both inside and out.
