Stayed two nights in Mangonui - fish and chips are a bit overrated, they're Oz style, not NZ style, but the pineapple rings they do there are awesome.
Yes, the Mangonui fish 'n' chips were nothing special and over-priced. But you have to try them once though.
The Thai restaurant there was very good.
We were deciding between the Thai place and the Indian place and went with the Indian place - it was really good too.
@J77 We had Jimmy Jacks in Paihia, and yep they were very good, not comparable with Hurricanes in Sydney but still nice and decent value for money.

I'm taking a group from work up Paihia way to play Kauri Cliffs mid-October. You boys seem to know the places to go in Paihia for a feed and beer?
Charlotte's Kitchen on the Paihia Wharf or The Duke over in Russell would be the two standout restaurants in the Bay. In fact I think they might even be owned by the same person/people.
Otherwise Zane Greys is a decent feed in a more casual setting looking out over the water. -

Iāve been to Hurricanes in Sydney. They had the massive steak challenge there at the time. My fucking eyes were dragging on the ground when I came out.
Shit, need to change the title of this thread to āwhere to avoid and eat in Northlandā. Had to scroll up to remember what the original topic was about!

Did you go to Hurricanes and not have ribs. Please don't tell me you did that - I've enjoyed our discussion on this thread, but if you went to Hurricanes and didn't have ribs you're dead to me.

I'm speaking over your grave now. Next time you're in Sydney, have the f-ing ribs. It's Hurricanes ribs, not Hurricanes steak house.
I actually went to a staff lunch one time and out of the 10 of us, only two of us had ribs. The worst thing about it was that it was agreed to by everyone and work paid. I had a whole rack and kumara chips so had leftover ribs for lunch the next day too.

She's a wise lady your sister!
If you go ribs crazy and want some cheap good value ribs the Moore Park Hotel does $15 ribs on Thursdays which are as I say good value.
