A
Vic
A commendable example of a Mac’s Brewbar, with trademark, quirky Kiwiana fit-out including a striped, knitted stag’s head. Quaff a few handles of ale, maybe grab a bite to eat (mains $13 to $30) and tap a toe to regular live music (Tuesday to Saturday). Good afternoon sun and people-watching from streetside seating.

Sprig & Fern
The Sprig & Fern brewery in Richmond supplies an extensive range of beers to S&F pubs springing up around the region. Nearly 20 brews on tap, from lager through to doppelbock and berry cider. No pokies, no TV, just decent beer, food, occasional live music and a pleasant outdoor area.

Free House
Come rejoice at this church of ales. Tastefully converted from its original, more reverent purpose, it’s now home to an excellent, oft-changing selection of NZ craft beers. You can imbibe inside or out. Hallelujah.

Maen Fiddler
A traditionally Irish bar, but not nauseatingly so with leprechauns and shamrocks everywhere (retro record sleeves and an antique motorbike instead). Live music nightly, plus an amazing range of whiskies, local and imported beers. Maen hangovers...
