Monteiths Brewery

It was a great decision for the restaurant to stay open for all the World Cup rugby matches! We went there for a game and it was bustling with energy. They had a special menu with plenty of delicious options, including hot drinks and beer. The only downside was that they were only offering takeaway cups in one size due to the busyness, but the service was still excellent considering how busy it was!

The service at this restaurant was excellent. The staff were very friendly and made sure we were well taken care of, asking if there was anything else they could do for us. There was also some great banter with the staff. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and would highly recommend this restaurant.

We have eaten here before in the past, and its always been great. So chose to here dinner here on a Saturday night and once again had the MBBH Steaks. Hubbie had the 300g Ribeye (medium) and I had the 250g Porterhouse (medium rare). Hubbie's steak was full of gristle, and the majority of his was uneatable, however mine was perfect. So a big contrast there with the steaks. They were very apologetic, and gave hubbie a free desert. So the meal was a wee bit disappointing. However on a brighter note, the service was excellent and the deserts, great.

Came to Monteiths Hanmer for Sunday lunch. Now I saw some not so great reviews, but I like to formulate my own opinions before passing judgement. My experience was fantastic, staff were fantastic, attentive and pleasant. Even apologized for a wait on food that was well within acceptable levels. The food was solid, great plate of fish and chips. Well cooked fish, well cooked fries. I would recommend giving this place a shot if you're in Hanmer. I know I'd would come back here.

Had a wonderful dinner here. There was a live musician playing who was very entertaining playing all the old classics like 'the gambler. ' We chose a seafood platter which was simply superb. Great Flavours, only the cod was battered, scallops and prawns tasted awesome. Definitely big enought to feed 3 happily. One down side was a glass was broken on the floor and cleaned in too much of a rush. we could still see shards on glass which should have been vacuumed. Would recommend going and will come again for the seafood platter
