A lovely spot in downtown Invercargill. We got here after a long drive from Dunedin. With an…read moreincredible stop at Curio Cliff to see the Petrified forest. That's not to be missed. But we arrived on a wonderfully sunny fall day and were eager to try the local seafood. The wine list is short but good and the Two Paddocks Pinot Noir was great and well priced. This place was crowded with locals on a weekday so be sure to get in early. The service was prompt and friendly. And it was nice to be in small town New Zealand. The local Bloysters are large and meaty. They are not the sort that you want without some lemon. But with some fresh lemon and their mignonette they were very tasty. We then had the green lip mussels which were perfectly tender (not rubbery from overlooking. Yuck). The coconut cream was delicious. And was great with the bread. Really great. The Stewart island salmon was perfectly cooked and was so rich and delicious with a great sauce on top. The black rice underneath was great as was the tomato and fresh zucchini. It's not as big a flavor as the King Salmon from Alaska but a more delicate flavor. Overall a great place if you are down here enjoying Stewart island

We meet at the rocks for a group dinner for 8 we were not forced to take a set menu as some places…read moredo which was great; we ordered local and foreign beers with olives and bread to start and wait for everyone to arrive. Seeing the food arrive on other tables appear very generous we skipped any further starters in favour of mains; most of us had one or other of the steak dishes though a couple chose the fish of the day. Everyone's steak arrived how they ordered it from rare to well done, which is impressive with so many orders; the food was excellent and the sides generous. The recommended wine matched perfectly of course it was from NZ and whilst we were the last to leave we never felt rushed - which is always a sign of a good business.

The crust was really bland and soggy. I thought it might have been because I got the gluten free crust, but my wife's pizza, who had the regular crust, wasn't any better. The good news about my pizza was that the toppings were better. I had the Mischief and got the "Ring of Fire" level of chili on it. It was good and spicy. The chicken and chorizo were both tasty too. After eating about half of my pizza I gave up on it. I pulled the toppings off and left the rest of the crust behind. Pretty disappointing!!!

But it was really down well.

We were however in an out of the way spot. That aside the food was excellent and we ordered across the range, salad, fish and Wellington! Everyone enjoyed their meal. The live music was a little loud to talk work in such a small location, however that is hardly the most important factor in visiting an Irish Pub.
