Puhoi Pub

Google “New Zealand’s oldest pub” and you’ll find there’s a bit of competition for the title.

But the Puhoi Hotel, commonly known as the Puhoi Pub, has to be in the top five – the heritage-listed hotel has been operating since 1879.

It has long been an institution for Aucklanders, because there’s nothing like heading up the coast for a beer and fish and chips at the pub. Sitting under one of the umbrellas opposite the river on a sunny Sunday is still “a thing”.

The Puhoi Pub, which has just come onto the market, is the centre of village life - international competitors took part in this woodchopping tournament recently.
