About Local Queenstown, in the operator's words
Local offers a one-of-a-kind Queenstown experience across three vibrant levels. On the ground floor, our restaurant serves everything from shareable small plates to hearty, crowd-pleasing classics. Think pub food with a modern twist that’s sure to satisfy everyone. With flat-screen TVs streaming live sports all day and a focus on fast, friendly service, you’ll feel right at home.
Head upstairs to discover our iconic rooftop terrace, the heart of Local. By day, enjoy live music in the sun; by night, our DJs keep the party going into the early hours. Whether you’re sipping cocktails on the roof, tucking into dinner downstairs, or ripping it up on the dancefloor, Local is where the good times happen.
