Here is a rare opportunity to reimagine an iconic Northland country tavern and create something special in a prominent State Highway 1 location between Whangārei and the Bay of Islands.

The Towai Tavern previously operated as a hospitality business but has been closed for approximately two years. Although the business is not currently trading, much of the existing hospitality infrastructure remains, providing a valuable starting point for a new owner with energy, ideas and vision.

The premises include a traditional public bar, commercial kitchen, garden bar, guest accommodation and on-site living quarters. Its highly visible location offers the potential to attract passing travellers while also serving the surrounding rural community.

The possibilities are extensive. Re-establish the country tavern, introduce a destination restaurant or café, develop the accommodation offering, host functions and live entertainment, or explore an entirely new tourism or hospitality concept.

This opportunity is all about the location, the existing setup and the potential to breathe new life into a much-loved local landmark.

The business opportunity is offered in conjunction with the freehold land and buildings on approximately 1.87 hectares. As the business is not currently operating, purchasers should complete their own due diligence regarding the condition of the equipment and all licences, registrations, consents and approvals required to recommence trading.

Purchase price is plus GST, if any.
