Buster Crabb

Fiordland & Southland


A heritage building and quirky backstory lift Buster Crabb above the ordinary. Named after a British navy frogman who was supposedly spirited away to join MI6, this sleek gastropub does a good line of lunchtime salads, roasts and burgers, along with dinner mains that range from gourmet (duck and walnut crumble) to eyebrow-raising (the 'Donald Trump choker' steak).

Caution: you may lose hours over the rustic platters of local cheese and cold cuts, best enjoyed fireside with a huge glass of wine.
