Powderkeg Restaurant and Bar
Overview
At the foot of Mt Ruapehu, the Powderkeg Bar is one of New Zealand's iconic spots for après-ski fun.
It hits all the marks for some winter socialising, with a bellowing fireplace, rustic decor and free-flowing drinks from the bar. The food menu is appropriately down-to-earth, highlighting pub classics like beef burgers, house-smoked ribs and house-made pizzas.
Grab a mulled wine and gather around the fireplace to put some heat back into your bones.
