In just a few weeks Grangers Taphouse and Kitchen will be shutting its doors … but thankfully not for good.

A huge renovation is planned to start in May and anticipated to take about three months to complete.

It’ll reopen with a revamped look, new name, and fresh menu.

But before the tools come out and the transformation begins at the eatery located at the picturesque Half Moon Bay Marina, locals are encouraged to pop down and soak up the unbeatable ambience and sample the mouthwatering menu on offer.

The new owners are buzzing with anticipation for what’s ahead, blending a revitalised space with Grangers’ signature relaxed coastal charm.

But while the décor may soon change, the culinary excellence has already stepped up a notch.

Recently, a member of the Times team dropped by to explore the revamped menu.

Two dishes stood out: the Ika Mata Ruakākā Kingfish – fresh local kingfish, perfectly balanced with coconut, chilli, red onion, coriander and lime – and the handmade lamb spring rolls, which were crisp and full of flavour.

While the Māori fried bread wasn’t sampled on this visit, it was spotted being enjoyed by others, drawing plenty of admiring glances.

Located in the heart of the Half Moon Bay Marina, Grangers offers a welcoming vibe that’s perfect for a casual pint and fries with friends, or a relaxed family dinner with something to suit every palate.

Before the exciting changes begin, make sure to pop down to Grangers and say goodbye to the team before the major revamp gets under way.
