SnakeBite Brewery in Franz Josef Glacier is one of the area's most popular restaurants. It offers a mix of fresh, vibrant Southeast Asian flavours and New Zealand’s best craft beers. That sounds good to me!

What I love about their restaurant is that they focus on locally sourced, fresh ingredients.

• Their bread and pies are baked fresh every day

• Cakes, loaves, rolls, desserts and sweets are made from scratch

• Eggs are free-range from a good friend’s chickens down the road

• The honey is from local hives.

• They grow a lot of their vegetables and herbs in their organic garden

• AND their chefs make their own sauces

Their mission is to be honest, authentic, and affordable. They complement the real taste of Asia with some of the exciting NZ Craft Beers brewed with passion in a relaxed and casual environment.
