Feeling grizzly today? 🐻 We've got your comfort food at the ready...

Today's Pie & a Pint special doubles down on the pint part, big time 🍺 Our classic Steak and Porter pie harnesses the power of a not-so-secret special ingredient: the Sprig + Fern Grizzly Porter. The signature velvety dark ale brings out all the rich, melt-in-your-mouth flavours of steak for the perfect winter combo. 👌 And it comes served with any pint of your choice, so you can either pair it with a full dose of Porter or lighten the mood with a slightly brighter brew.

We also frequently get asked if we make the pies in-house, and the answer is OF COURSE! Chef Tim & Pierre undoubtedly sit amongst Tasman's pie extraordinaires, putting in the hard yards to come up with gourmet creations like this every week and whip 'em up fresh and golden on the day. Come hibernate the storm with us... the fire's on and pies are hot! 🔥

We're running it back today with our award-winning burger back on the blackboard! 🍔🏆

Earlier this year, our 'Kiwi As' burger placed an extremely well-deserved 3rd in the country and 1st in the South Island in Burger Nation's Seafood Burger category...😱 So as Ron Burgundy would say: "it's kind of a big deal." Come grab NZ's best burger (literally) while you can - available today only!

Today's Pie & Pint special is slow-braised, spiced-curry mutton in a buttery flaky pastry. 🤤 Scientifically proven* to fix at leeeeast 73% of today's problems.... the pint has got the other 27% covered. 😅

*Said "science" is questionable, the pie is not. Results of study may or may not be based entirely on increasingly loud “far out that’s good"s and empty plates.

Cornflakes walked so this burger could run! Today's burger special is ultra-crunchy cornflake-crumbed chicken with sriracha slaw, guacamole, and charred corn salsa. 🤤 Now that's a balanced meal if we ever saw one! Your 5-a-day in the guac, corn, slaw, and chips, plenty of protein, cornflakes for nostalgia, and a pint to round it all out. 😎 See you from 2pm!

Today's Pie & a Pint will warm you from the inside out 🥧 Melty chilli beef and cheese on a bed of creamy mash and mushy peas. It fixes bad moods, cold hands, and “what should we do for dinner?” all in one hit... and the pint certainly doesn't hurt either. Available today only!

RESIN RIDGE - HOPPY BROWN ALE • 5.4%
On tap from today at Sprig + Fern Mapua! ⛰

Take the scenic route to bold flavour with Resin Ridge, a hoppy brown ale built on a rich and rewarding malt backbone.

Layers of chocolate, caramel and toasted malt rise first, before climbing into a burst of Simcoe and Sabro hops delivering bright citrus, pine resin and tropical fruit aromas. Medium-bodied and full-flavoured, Resin Ridge balances smooth malt richness with a lively hop edge, finishing crisp, resinous and moreish.

A flavour peak worth reaching, available for a limited time only.
