The history of Te Atatu's first general store is a fascinating one. It was owned by a Mr Illingsworth and served as a meeting place for the locals. By the 1930s, the community had grown to 50 houses, and the store remained at the heart of community life. Today, we continue this tradition of community by offering a welcoming atmosphere at our restaurant and bar. Come in, grab a beer or a bite, and enjoy the local experience.
