Nestled in the heart of Central Otago, Ida Garden Bar & Kitchen is where the vibrant flavours of the region come to life. Inspired by the stunning landscapes and rich local produce, Ida is more than a local pub — it’s a celebration of everything that makes Alexandra special. From our sun-soaked garden bar to our warm and inviting dining spaces, we’re dedicated to creating a place where friends, family, and neighbours can come together to relax, connect, and indulge in great food and drink.
