Brewery Bar & Restaurant
(Gastro Pub Food, New Zealand)
You’ll find Mac’s Brewery Bar at the start of Taranaki St on Wellington’s waterfront, a stone’s throw from Te Papa and sharing a building with the Mac’s Brewery itself. For years now we’ve been matching that beer with fine food, functioning the year round as a meeting place of great minds and well-honed palates. Pull up a stool, ponder the menu and (while keeping one eye on the rugby possibly) order a glass of one of Mac’s award-winning brews.
