Our History
Named after the owner’s grandmother, Florence ‘Florrie’ was born in Enniskillen, a small border town in Northern Ireland. In 1909, Florrie married Simon McGreal when, in search of a better life, they emigrated to New Zealand.
Florrie from Northern Ireland was a Protestant and teetotaller. Simon from the Republic, was a Catholic and bless his soul, enjoyed more than his share of the demon drink. To say they shared an interesting marriage would be a gross understatement.
Florrie and Simon produced five children, one being Edna McGREAL, who married Tuppy SCHWASS. Together they had the sense to produce Kevin SCHWASS, the owner of Florrie McGreal’s.
First established in 1993 as part of the Poenamo Hotel, in 2009 Florrie’s relocated to Hurstmere Road, its current location.
