Got the following email from Judie at the Golden Kiwi in Cambridge earlier this week...
It doesn`t take long for word to get out but The Golden Kiwi Pub has been sold- as of Nov. 28th. The new owners are carrying on the same format and will continue operations.
Judie and Len`s farewell party is Sat. Nov. 26th with Peter Shaw- Aussie entertainer- and some great Beer Cocktails that Len has conjured up-such as Black Cobbler, etc. We will have beer inspired appetizers and the theme of the party is ~the Last Haka`- with Len and friends showing everyone how to do the Haka- the All-Blacks war chant before the Rugby games.
Chef Judie-co-owner now is turning her attention to beer-inspired food demos at local breweries on week-ends.

Introducing Light Mode! If you would like a Bar Towel social experience that isn't the traditional blue, you can now select Light Mode. Go to the User Control Panel and then Board Preferences, and select "Day Drinking" (Light Mode) from the My Board Style drop-down menu. You can always switch back to "Night Drinking" (Dark Mode). Enjoy!

this place is great. We stopped in about a month ago when I went back to K-W for my Grandmother's funeral.
Rob from GR was at the bar, and was able to say "Hi". Glad I got to go there with the original owners. All the best!
