About Agave Bistro & Drinkery

About this place

Agave Bistro & Drinkery is a contemporary Mexican restaurant and bar on Maunganui Road, in the heart of Mount Maunganui's main street in the Tauranga area. Created by a team of hospitality professionals, it pairs a bistro kitchen with a dedicated "drinkery", and has quickly built a strong local following.

The kitchen serves contemporary Mexican dishes, and the team takes particular pride in its tortillas, which are hand-rolled and cooked to order. On the drinks side, the drinkery is built around an extensive range of tequilas and mezcals alongside a distinctive cocktail list. The venue offers alfresco dining, free Wi-Fi and disabled access, and hosts DJs and live music on a regular basis, giving it a lively, social atmosphere.

Agave holds an excellent 4.9 Google rating and keeps long daily hours, making it suitable for everything from a casual lunch to late-night drinks.

The shareable Mexican menu, bar focus and easy-going service make Agave a good fit for casual group dining, celebrations and social get-togethers in the Mount. Published details on dedicated function or private-dining space are limited, so groups planning a larger booking or event should contact the venue directly to confirm what can be arranged. It stands out among Tauranga restaurants for its refined Mexican food and drinks-led experience.
