The Blue Pub

Welcome to the world famous Blue Pub in Methven, Mt Hutt Village - located right smack in the centre of town!

The pub to be at after a hard day in the mountains enjoying all the different aspects of this beautiful amazing space.

After a hard day skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, rafting, fishing or any of the outdoor pursuits we have on offer; there is nothing better than settling down on the verandah enjoying a cold beer with some friends and reflecting on the day's adventure.

Once you have recharged the mind, the body will need to be charged up so try our excellent food, either in the Cafe, outside on the verandah or just pull up a stool at the bar and enjoy the friendly atmosphere.

Our menu has some great pub grub available as well as a delicious a la carte menu for the more discerning diner.

If you are looking for somewhere to lay your head for the night, you can stay upstairs in our true kiwi style pub accommodation.

We also offer facilities for functions and conferences in Samuels Bar. With the capacity to seat up to 100 people, it's a great choice for your next get together, work do or party.

The Blue likes to think that it's one of Canterbury's major live venues for music and many renowned artists have played here.

We offer the main bar as a venue and also Samuels Bar for the bigger touring bands.

Just some of these bands who have played include Salmonella Dub, Rhombus, Dave Dobbyn, Elemeno P, Drifters, The Exponents - the list goes on . . .
