A lively and fun bbq spot where the owner Otaki treats you like a friend, and includes your kids in the serious business of barbecue. Finish the evening with a game of 9-ball or darts! Rocky Inn is the perfect quirky gem you shouldn’t miss in Appi!

Writing a review not for the hotel but for the restaurant. I'm so grateful I walked by this hidden gem as it did not identify itself has a restaurant on the map! Defnitely check the bar/restaurant out for a unique japanese bbq experience.The hosts were lovely and made the experience more than welcoming. Beer selection was incredible, above all the freshly wood smoked meats was 10/10. Never had anything quite like it anywhere else.Perfect for a relaxed evening after hitting the slopes
