We honestly didn't expect this much interest in Sailor Sam's.

The food and the tees are getting some amazing feed back!

We've had heaps of people asking if they can get A tee. Just so you know, we're taking orders in store.

If you'd like one, pop in and let us know your size and we'll add you to the next order.

Here’s the menu for Sailor Sam’s — open from 4pm today ⚓

We’ve brought back a bit of nostalgia, but we need your help…

Does anyone remember the old packs and what was in them? Comment below and help us piece the memory back together.

And for anyone who’s tried our chicken burger — what did you think? Did we do it justice?

Open from 4pm. Come grab a feed while Sailor Sam’s is back for one last hoorah.

TUESDAY NIGHT IS QUIZ NIGHT!

New teams wanted!
Why not miss Shortland street for once and give your brain muscle a workout.

Fly solo or bring the whole mob.

Move over Taranaki Hardcore… there’s a new gang in town. ⚓🍟
F&C’s 4 LIFE.
No patches.
No turf wars.
Just deep-fried loyalty, emotional damage, and a suspicious amount of tartare sauce.
‘Battered Not Broken’ tees have officially landed at Sailor Sam’s.
For the lads, the dads, the deckhands, and anyone who’s ever defended a hot chip from a seagull with their life.
Grab yours before your mate does and suddenly thinks he’s the toughest fish in the harbour.

One last voyage before she sails off... ⚓
As you may know, the place is officially on the market.
But there was one thing we had to do before the keys eventually change hands…
Bring back Sailor Sam’s for one final hoorah.
No big promises. No long-term plans.
Think of it as a pop-up revival of a Hawera classic — the kind of thing that might only exist for a short while before disappearing back into the tide again.
Once it’s gone… it’s gone.
Doors open TOMORROW — Thursday 7th May from 4PM.
Fish, chips, burgers & a bit of nostalgia.

☀️ SUN’S OUT = COCKTAILS ON

🍹THE GOLDEN HOUR SPRITZ 🍊

Bright citrus. Passionfruit. Ice cold bubbles.
Basically summer in a glass.

Perfect excuse to knock off early and park up in the sun.

Grab your crew, grab a seat, and make the most of it while the sun’s doing its thing.

— No bookings needed, just get in here 🍻

Alone, we’re just stones.
Together, we’re mountains.

Today’s about remembering where we stand, who we stand with, and the journey that brought us here. Strength comes from community, shared stories, and looking out for each other — especially on days that matter.

Stay safe, enjoy the day, and take a moment to reflect. We’re many, but we are one.

Doors open, cold drinks pouring, good food coming out — swing by if you’re out and about.
