Come check it out! Entering the new year under new ownership The Pioneer Restaurant & Bar is a place to look out for. A hearty establishment with a rustic feel. If you’re wondering where everyone is on a Friday night, they’re most likely enjoying the live music here! Be sure to check them out on Facebook to stay up to date with their up and coming events.

The Pioneer is a great rustic old bar in Waipapa. It’s mostly known for their incredibly popular Wednesday quiz nights. And they also screen the rugby. You can find out what games and what time they’ll be on by checking out their facebook page.

If you're wondering where everyone is on a Wednesday, they're here at the pub quiz! The Pioneer is a hearty establishment of Waipapa and an awesome place with character to bring friends and family. They serve classic pub food and have a lovely fire roaring in winter. I love going to the pub quiz here because the place gets so busy and full of life - even in winter!
