A New Zealand themed pub
With a name like 'The Maori Chief' it is pretty obvious that this is going to be a New Zealand themed pub, and while I mean no offence to our cousins across the ditch, I sometimes wonder how one can theme a pub New Zealand. Well, I guess I found out upon visiting this pub because it has rugby, rugby, and well, rugby (and did I mention the rugby). Well, that is not necessarily New Zealand because our friends in Sydney and Brisbane sure do like their rugby, it is just that New Zealand is so much better than us. They do have a range of craft beers on tap (but nothing distinctly New Zealandish) and their food is not badly priced either. What I did like was how they brought some finger food around to each of us when I was there (though that is probably only a Friday night thing). They do have a rooftop bar, but that was closed for a function.
