Jellicoe St Bar & Eatery is a restaurant, bar and function venue on Jellicoe Street in Te Puke, in the Tauranga area of the Bay of Plenty. It combines a main bar, a function room and a beer garden, making it both a everyday eatery and a venue for larger gatherings.
The kitchen runs an all-day gastro menu spanning burgers, mains, platters, poke bowls, sides, desserts and a kids' menu. Popular dishes noted in listings include the classic beef burger, scotch fillet steak, Korean fried chicken, lamb shank and pork belly baguette. The bar is a genuine feature, with 12 beers on tap — six of them local craft beers — plus a wide range of cocktails and mocktails.
A clear strength for group organisers is capacity: the venue offers seating for around 230 people across its main bar, function room and beer garden, making it well suited to private functions, family gatherings and celebrations. This dedicated function capability, combined with an accessible all-day menu, positions Jellicoe St as a practical option for group dining and events (MICE) in the Te Puke and wider Tauranga area; organisers should contact the venue directly to confirm room configurations and catering options.
Jellicoe St opens Tuesday to Sunday and is closed Mondays (check current hours before visiting). It is a versatile pick among Tauranga restaurants for those seeking a relaxed meal or a function space in Te Puke.
