About
The Leigh Sawmill is located in the coastal town of Leigh, hidden away just about an hour’s drive north of Auckland. With our restaurant and bar, off-license, busy music venue, just minutes from the beach, one might say we have everything you could possibly need.
As a fully licensed restaurant and bar, we are able to offer an ever-evolving selection of beers and ciders on tap from Matakana, Warkworth, Auckland, and all over New Zealand, as well as some fantastic Kiwi wines. Our selection of cocktails are perfect for a relaxing escape or celebration, and our barista style coffee is perfect for those wanting to kick start their day!
We do our best to keep it local here, with fresh fish and locally sourced produce whenever possible. There really is something on our menu for everyone, with gourmet pizzas and burgers, fresh fish, and seafood.
A trip to Leigh would not be complete without catching a live gig at our iconic music venue. We have played host to a varied portfolio of live music over the last decade and proudly support New Zealand music. With performances most every weekend, an unforgettable night at the mill is waiting for you!
Our menu is never done
Every dish we serve at the Sawmill has its own unique story. From traditional recipes, and some modern updates that tell the history of our team, our cooks and chefs have left their innovative mark on our kitchen.
Our serving staff and managers are ambassadors of hospitality and will make your dining experience one to remember. Our menu is never done — inspiration can be found all around us, in new ingredients, new approaches, and new experiences.
