The Honest Lawyer Pub

The shortest way to get to the United Kingdom from Nelson is to venture to the island suburb of Monaco and step back in time at the Honest Lawyer. Truely a memorable location, this traditional English style pub offers old style food with a Pacific twist. Dine al fresco in the summer surround by seaviews or nestle under the low beamed ceilings in front of the fire in winter.

The menu changes regularly to give cuisine a seasonal flavour. Try Seafood Chowder, Doubled braised Lamb Shanks and Beef Sirloin on marque potato w/ portobello mushrooms, crispy bacon & bernaise sauce. Popular house specialities, such as Steak & Guinness pie are always available. Traditional meals such as fish and chips, steak or salmon also feature and they also cater for vegetarians. There is a choice of 13 beers on tap, including imported beers from the UK such as Guinness, Bass or Kilkenny, and also stock the local Macs range.
