The Green Dragon Inn Reviews

Great drinks and great atmosphere. Felt like you were truly inside a Hobbits pub! Loved it there.

Beautiful setting. Good to walking
I loved it.

If you are a fan of the lord of the rings or the Hobbit then you will love Hobbiton. Relive the scenes as you are guided through the Hobbits village. I was amazed by how many Hobbit holes there were to see and the attention to detail.

So glad I got to go, I loved it! The dark stout is only served here :)

Cozy atmosphere and a perfect ending for a day in Hobbiton!

Excellent pub, very authentic! Good food and drinks

Hobbiton was a very interesting and satisfying tour. Money well spent as compaired to other tours of the same price range in New Zeland

Wonderful. The care in maintaining the space impeccably is incredible.

Excellent spot to finish a hobbit tour. Nicest cider in New Zealand. Tour guide Ant was outstanding,

Very cozzy and a great end to an amazing visit to the hobiton movieset!! Its a mist do if yoy are even just a lottle bit of a fantasy fan! Tho even if you are not the amount of detail and the great vieuws are worth it!

What can you say, having ginger beer and muffins in a warm cosy bar!

Very good and very real. The drink is included in the entrance

We had so much fun on the Hobbiton trip today. Josh was a great tour guide and it was such a professional and interesting experience

Nice place for a drink but you are only afforded 15 minutes on your tour which is a shame.

Excellent experience as part of the Hobbiton banquet tour to enter the Green Dragon and have a full banquet meal.

I'd highly recommend visiting!

This pub surprised me in the fact of how accurate and up to scale this place was and it kept to the hobbit theme. Very impressed!!

Amazing place, from decor to the drinks and food to the staff. It was an unique and unforgettable experience

Seriously, are you even questioning this? Just be warned that the only way to get here is on an escorted hobbiton tour.

It was an amazing experience! Food was the best! And Ole the guide was the best so glad he was our guide!

The tour was so fantastic and getting a good cold drink at the Green Dragon Inn made you feel like you're part of the movie. The tour was worth $79

Wouldn't mind having a business with similar character. Working fireplace with a nice warm fire going. Don't want to spoil the experience, so I attached the less awesome photo of a door in The Green Dragon.

To drink in the same bar used in the film Star Wars Episode 4 A New Hope has been a life long bucket list goal for me and today its finally happened! Thanks Hobbiton!

Part of the Hobbiton movie set.We got a free locally brewed beer as part of our tour.

Perfect end to the tour, had a delicious English stout.

Childhood re-lived and felt so good to be there! Wish I could have stayed all day.

Beautiful and good service. The staff are very accomodating. My family enjoyed our short rest here after hobitton tour.

Taylor The Redhead - Tour guide was awesome & very cute :)

What an experience! Nice red ale, stunning details all throughout the inn, even the toilets! The food served as part of the tour was delicious! All the staff were super kind and helpful.

Hobbit Movie set is a must for all lord of the rings fans.

WOW..
We were blown away by the tour, it wasn't too crowded and the weather was perfect with the evening sun over us and the sound of nature around Hobbiton. The Tour guides Mike and Sonny were awesome and made the experience what it was, they managed to get everyone laughing even those who didn't speak much English. We got some incredible photos going through Hobbiton, and didn't feel rushed at all, we all took our time taking turns to get the photos we all wanted.
Once we got through bagend and all the other streets you'd recognize from the films we came over a bridge with a water wheel and lake to find the Green Dragon Inn. We had a few ales and laughs, took time to soak up the atmosphere of the famous hobbit pub in the day light. As the sun went down it was finally time to reveal the banquet.
The banquet had me beat, I started with a couple of lamb shanks in gravy with mashed potatoes, then took huge servings of perfectly cooked salmon.. had to try the tender beef casserole, the roast chicken was moist and seasoned nicely, had to have at least some salad which was so fresh they probably grow their own veggies.
We had another Ale or two and desert... what?? Desert as well... didn't leave any room at all for that in my stomach but u managed to have a taste of it all and it was mouth watering, with mini pavs topped with fresh cream, berries, a couple of different mouth watering cakes..
We then grabbed our lanterns and walked (or waddled) back through Hobbiton to the party grounds for the last part of our tour.
Huge thanks to the staff at Hobbiton for making it so special, shout out to Sonny and Mike you guys rocked!! Sonny killed it bringing the good vibes and a touch of kiwi culture to the tour. Happy bday bro

You HAVE to do the hobbiton tour if you are near the area! Very well done, kids had fun and they give you a free drink at the green dragon inn! We got a couple biscusts and a scone too

The site in its entirety is to see even if you do not know or do not like the masterpiece of Tolkien (Lord of the rings -Bilbon the hobbit-the silmarillon), in short everything that is Heroic Fantasy
Beautiful landscapes and beautiful tree colors in autumn
Tour made a little run if you want to follow the explanations and a little free time at the end to drink a pint and eat a scone in the hostel

Not accessible independently of the Hobbiton tours. However, reasonably priced and tasty snacks and beautiful attention to detail inside (including real fires!).

We get to stop by here on the last part of the Hobbiton tour, pretty awesome experience as it makes you feel you re inside a LOTR movie set, we only get 15 min here though, wish it was more.

The Green Dragon will be a highlight to your trip to Hobbiton. The food and drinks seem authentic and taste great, and everything is reasonably priced! (Especially if you're used to USD, because then everything is "20% off!")

The atmosphere and staff are very friendly, and I wish we could have stayed there longer. As it was, I think you had 20 minutes at the Inn before they needed you to move along. (That way it wasn't crowded for the next time group.)

Blooming delightful place of ever there was one. The music really did it for me.

A place that makes you feel like you could be in the actual movie :)

Beautiful outlook and building. Amazing staff. Also had a complimentary ginger beer or alcohol beverage when on the Hobbiton tours.

Be sure to check the walls for trinkets and bits and bobs.

fun dining experience. lotsa food. beer was good.

The pub is more like a movie set than a real bar. They give you short time to have a drink and that is all. Is fun for the photos !!

Great to visit as part of the Hobbiton tour. You get a free beer/soft drink or tea/coffee as part of the entrance fee. Good selection of light meals and snacks that are reasonably priced

Small encore in hobbiton, and the amber ale was delicious.

You can't miss it since it's on the tour. Great pub with great details in interior design

Definitely high on the tourist things to do in New Zealand.

Lovely pub. I wish it was my local. Would work well as a wedding venue.
