Queenstown's original Irish Pub and winner of the inaugural NZ Pint Masters Competition.
Loyalty Card: Don't forget to bring your FrenzCard each time you visit Pogs and in case you haven't yet joined our fantastic loyalty programme make sure you pick up a card when you next visit so that you too earn real rewards in real time.
Location and opening times: We're open from 11:30am every day until late and specialise in hosting fabulous functions in our cosy upstairs bar and balcony overlooking Lake Wakatipu.
Kiwi Icon: Pogs opened in its lakefront location in the heart of Queenstown in 1998 and quickly became a Queenstown icon.
The Kiwi & Irish owners had the pub designed and built in Ireland itself, then shipped, lock, stock & barrel, to NZ.
Great music, great food, great views: At Pogs you can enjoy a mix of modern & Celtic music (including regular trad sessions), friendly service, & open fires in both bars, not to forget the sunny beer garden & balcony from which you can soak up some of NZ's most stunning alpine scenery!
We proudly serve a full range of fine Irish & NZ beers & some of the best wines from NZ & abroad. Our menu offers authentic Irish cuisine complimented by contemporary NZ dishes & the world famous Stonegrill dining experience. We recommend you try our signature Beef & Guinness Pie or Irish Stew dishes - our full menu & drinks list can be viewed on the Food page.

10th February 2012 I was actually a Facebook competition winner for Pogs from last year and they were soooo lovely when we arrived to use the voucher. We had our small son with us which was no problem - the food arrived very quickly, was delicious and the atmosphere was fantastic. Love this place!

3.0Average food, even for a pub. We had dinner during quiz night there. Nice atmosphere but better to just have a drink I think.

16th July 2010 Pog's is the place to hang out - it's the place everyone goes when all the other pubs are closed. Head down after midnight and you'll find all the restaurant staff from all over Queenstown down here.
Pog's is such a warm friendly place, where "everyone knows your name"
