The Portage Bar The Landing Deacon's Kitchen The Boat House

The perfect place to relax after work, catch up with friends, watch your favourite sport or shoot some pool.

In this uniquely Riverheadian Bar you will find yourself drawn into unique stories of the characters that have helped shape this small town. For real Kiwi blokes and blokesses this bar has the lot; ice cold beer, hearty food, all the sport you could wish for, all packaged with a warm welcome and top service.

Check out the chopper that hangs above the bar….made from things he found on the property, our builder and promising sculptor,  Garry Dunn used the things he found as he helped rejuvenate The Riverhead from what it was to what it is now…saws, machetes, knives, axes, augers, a coal shuttle, tractor seat and the old compressor from the almost defunct refrigeration.  It’s a unique masterpiece especially suited to The Portage Bar.
