"The Horeke Hotel is the oldest surviving hotel in New Zealand.
The oldest part dates from around 1833.
At that time it didn't have had a liquor license, but the hotel served the many ship builders working in the first commercial shipbuilding yard in New Zealand,which was established in 1826.
The shipyard was situated right beside where the pub now stands.
The Horeke Tavern was also the site of the first government organised hui. Governor Hobson trudged for six day to reach Horeke with the freshly inked Treaty of Waitangi. The balance of the Northland chiefs signed at the nearby Mangungu Mission station and then it was celebration time in the pub grounds"
