First night in queenstown and was looking for some food and drinks for our jet lagged selves…read more Smiths did not disappoint. My partner had the lamb burger, we shared the poutine, and I had the venison pot pie. Portion sizes are huge so I had to take away some of my pot pie and some leftover poutine in a box. Taste wise, my partner enjoyed his burger, we both loved the poutine, and the venison pot pie was good but a little too sweet for my liking. The poutine, while used mozzarella instead of cheese curds, was our favorite and would just come here to order a few orders of that. We also got a flight to share to try some local brews including 3 sours, 1 ginger beer, 1 cider, and 1 lemonade. They were all good and I especially liked the ginger beer on the menu. The alcoholic lemonade was also quite nice and better than any alcoholic lemonades I've had in the states.

The adjoining balcony was great for watching life pass by down below with our 6x200mL taster flight for 45 NZD. For some reason, this beer bar and the last made a big deal about having Sculpin on tap. And little did they know, these San Diegan's cared not! Plenty of fresh hops selections were eyed instead, brews from Garage Project and Behemoth the MUCH better selections. The beer bar is huge with plenty of places to post up. Despite it's location in touristy QTN, Smith's keeps it laidback with its rougher environs that are not overdone or cringey like some of the places in QTN. Didn't have a food, but it looked to be of good value in expensive QTN, that is, if you aren't tired of pub food.

The dance floor is large and there are pool tables if you don't wanna dance. There are also lots of tables to sit at, large enough for big groups. The bar is extremely long, probably 10 metres covering both rooms. I recommend coming here in a night of partying. Also, if this place is quiet, check the Find and see if that is going on. Usually all the backpackers choose one or the other to party at, but it's not uncommon to find them both busy in a single night.

They have wings too, but my dush had 2 chicken breasts fried very well with 2 slabs of bacon. Cole slaw and a salad. 19NZD. For Americans it's good to know that bacon here is way better.

Looking for romantic dining and cuisine? Not the place, there are many nearby. Queenstown has any dining experience you need. But a great bar with nice food? This will do nicely.
