Where to eat and stay in Paihia
76 cafés, restaurants, bars, hotels and motels in Paihia, Northland — compiled from open data and public registers. Free to search, and no venue pays to appear.
We hold 76 venues in Paihia — 34 places to eat and 42 to stay. That makes it the 2nd-largest of the 109 towns and suburbs we cover in Northland, carrying 11% of the region's venues.
Of the places to eat, 24% are cafés against a national figure of 28%. Paihia skews 4 points away from cafés and towards restaurants, a pattern more typical of an evening trade. The full split is 8 cafés, 18 restaurants, 4 takeaways, 2 bars and 2 pubs.
15 of the 34 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are burger (6), fish and chips (3) and fish (2). Relative to the rest of the country Paihia is unusually strong on burger and fish and chips — those appear here at a higher rate than the national average.
On the practical detail: 12 publish opening hours (16%), 5 have outdoor seating and 1 flag vegetarian options. That trails the 23% national average — worth ringing ahead rather than trusting the listing.
For a bed, Paihia runs to 42 listings — 9 hotels, 17 motels, 4 b&bs and guest houses, 9 hostels, 1 serviced apartments and 2 holiday parks and campgrounds. Motels dominate, at 40% of the town's accommodation. Accommodation is 55% of everything mapped here, well above the 25% national share — the signature of a place that hosts more visitors than it has residents.
Places of a similar size — Whanganui (77), Papakura (78), Te Atatū South (80) and Te Anau (71) — average 23% accommodation. Paihia runs at 55%, noticeably more, which is what a place that takes in visitors looks like.
All of this is derived from open data rather than collected from listings sites: OpenStreetMap for the venues, public registers for verification. 1 of the 76 venues in Paihia carry at least six recorded attributes and so have a page of their own; the rest are listed here, because a page with only a name and a map pin on it would be worth nobody's time. A blank field means unrecorded, not absent. Nothing here is scraped from a commercial directory, no venue has paid to appear, and we publish no ratings or reviews of our own.
