Fancy a gourmet adventure around South Waikato? T̄ırau, an iconic Kiwi town approximately 2.5 hours south of central Auckland, is celebrated as a quirky, corrugated-clad rest stop. With charming bakeries, cafés and restaurants serving up locally sourced fare, it’s a true foodie wonderland!
Tucker Bar & Eatery
In the heart of T̄ırau, on the town’s main road, you’ll find Tucker Bar & Eatery. Owned by Lucas and Janice Currie, this co garden-to-table approach. Don’t miss their delicious offerings – the early risers’ menu stars a hearty big breakfast and brioche French toast, with small share plates and larger mains on off er from 5pm.
MUST TRY: Spicy Carolina reaper crispy fried chicken burger. It’s well presented with an airy, soft bun and a crispy coated chicken fillet that is both tender and juicy. According to Janice, the best way to eat their burgers is to “smoosh them down and tuck in”! 31b Main Road
