Food, fuel & après vibes
Bites & brews
With four unique spots - two at the base and two up the maunga -each venue offers its own flavour, from quick grab-and-go options to relaxed spaces with stunning mountain views.
Winter weekends come alive with DJs and live music, creating the perfect ambiance. Head to Freddie's on Saturdays for full après vibes, open till 5:30pm.
Our venues are fully licensed, serving a selection of local and international brews, barista-crafted coffee, and hearty meals to keep you energised.
Please note: Our venues are not BYO, and packed lunches should be enjoyed in the designated picnic areas. Please support our on-mountain team and food outlets - and help us keep it tidy and fair by enjoying outside food in designated areas.
