Something For Every Taste

Welcome to the Parklands Motor Lodge onsite Riverside Bar & Restaurant, the perfect spot to dine in Tūrangi. Our menu features a variety of dishes made with fresh produce to suit families, corporate groups, couples, and anyone looking for a hearty meal after exploring the region. Our steak meals are some of our most popular options, a favourite among both locals and visitors.

Dinner is available from 5:30PM, open to both guests and the public. We are closed on Sundays and public holidays.

With limited dining options in town and fluctuating demand, we highly recommend making a reservation to avoid disappointment. This allows us to plan our staffing and stock levels accordingly while ensuring the best experience for both our in-house guests and visitors.

Our Riverside Bar is a local favourite, offering a cosy and inviting atmosphere. It’s the perfect place to unwind after a day exploring the Tongariro region, whether you’ve been out on the trails, the river, or the lake. Enjoy SKY Television sport and a selection of local beers.

We also cater to group bookings and private functions. For larger group bookings or enquiries, please email info@parklandsmotorlodge.co.nz
. Please note that on evenings where we have private functions or larger group bookings, the restaurant may be closed to the public.

Please note, we are now a cashless venue. We accept Visa and Mastercard, with PayWave/Apple Pay available for your convenience.
