Good Times with Good People
We are all about having fun and we want you to join us!The Blackball Inn and 08' Cafe is the new meeting and accommodation place on the block in Blackball’s CBD. Borne like a phoenix from the ashes of the old Club Hotel, the Inn has recently been refurbished and fitted out to create an incredibly cosy and comfortable space where good food and drink can be enjoyed at a leisurely and relaxing pace in a welcoming atmosphere with cosy rooms if you want to stay the night. Admire local art, be inspired by good books, immerse yourself in our town’s rich history, be entertained by a wide selection of board games, or try your luck at a game of pool or darts and be told a tale or two by one of our interesting locals!
The Inn is open seven days from 10am until close for breakfast, lunch, and dinner utilising locally sourced quality produce wherever possible. West Coast roasted Kawatiri ‘Paparoa Thunder’ coffee will be ground fresh for your daily pick me up at any time of the day, and cold beers and fine wine and spirts will be dispensed responsibly to folk seeking something a little stronger to relax after a busy day of exploring our beautiful backyard.

See what guests have been saying about Blackball's Inn and 08 Cafe.
"We stayed here prior to starting the Paparoa Track and we are so glad we did. Nick (proprietor) was very friendly, welcoming and accommodating to our request for space to prep our hiking food. Our room and the separate bathrooms/shower were spotless, and the bed was really comfortable. We enjoyed a fantastic dinner - can recommend the bangers & mash (with locally made Blackball sausages) and the curry, and the included continental breakfast had a nice range of choices. The value of money was outstanding, possibility the best we have experienced in New Zealand. Highly recommended"
