PARUA BAY TAVERN

On the way to Whangarei Heads, Parua Bay Tavern is an oceanfront pub nestled in the bay of the same name. Pool tables, table soccer and outdoor tables by the water make it a perfect spot to relax and have a drink. The pizzas are quite famous. Otherwise the cuisine is pub food: burgers, salads, fish & chips. Some evenings are themed like quiz nights or karaoke nights. Typically "kiwi", this tavern is a place not to be missed if you are in the area.
