Built in 1903 in the what has become the heart of Matakana Village, The Matakana is a bit of an institution. Its been through several changes in its long life. It started as a boarding house for dairy factory workers and, as the story goes, was a house of questionable morals in the 60's. Now its a pub and our morals are pretty good - most of the time.
Three farming couples and three city couples have recently revitalised and upgraded the old girl into a cool, relaxed and family friendly village pub. Duncan and Hannah Anderson and their partners vision is to provide a relaxed friendly environment, with fantastic service and a great selection of wines, beers and fresh food at really good value.
