Bar pub in Auckland

“Great place to go if you’re wanting a cheap night out. Was really happy to see the bouncers help me out after getting punched. Great atmosphere and a must do for international people coming in. Lot of respect to the bouncers for how they dealt with my situation and good chats I had with them in line”

“For the price, outstanding. Huge plate of lamb rump and two skewers. Nicely done fresh veg. If you're unfortunate enough to start at the nearby Novotel, ignore their wretched restaurant and take a 15 minute walk to Green Lane Gastro Pub. Well worth it. My meal was lovely and every other plate I saw going out looked great.”

“This bar is really great. Heineken is only NZ$6 if you drink that. Also possible the listen to your favourite song on the jukebox. Best bar in Auckland. Staff is amazing to”

“Nice small bar with gaming machines good spot to have a few beers and wind down”

“A fun place for watching quirky local shows or established artists "slumming it" for intimate gigs. There's usually a great selection of wines and beers on offer and the programme shifts often enough to keep you coming back.”

“Loved our lunch at Aperitivo! The guy front of house was great and the food was delicious. Really lovely spot”

“Great little place... Great waiting staff.”

“What an experience! Took my girlies to their first drag show and it was incredible. Everything from the gorgeous girls, ambience, food and many laughs were just brilliant. You get to keep the souvenir cups which is a cute memory. Food tasted so homey and just what we needed before continuing the night. Bar Manager and Bartender pushed drinks out the whole time and did an awesome job. Not only the girls performances were so fun and enjoyable to watch but their service throughout the whole night were so attentive and glamorous. Met some incredible people and would highlyyyyy recommend anyone to book for either an occasion or just to try something with friends.”

“I would highly recommend this place for Poly food. The portions are great, the service is very friendly and there is lots to choose from. Had breadfruit for the first time since visiting the islands. Just really gorgeous, simple and fulling meals. I was looked after by Asif who took great care of our table (my partner and I). You wouldn't see this place from the outside, so I recommend making the effort.”

“We had a cider and a beer flight. Both very good. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The Italian food was awesome as well”

“Had a great lunch stop on the way to the airport on Tuesday. The range of GP beers is always a selection dilemma, but settled on a February Fresh IPA... delicious. Enjoyed a great VEGAN masala toastie. Guys you really need to refresh the menu and add more plant-based choices!”

“Love this place. In town for only a few days and hit this spot 2 evenings for drinks, sliders, fries and chicken skewers. The owners are fantastic. Food is high quality.”

“Have been coming to 39 for a while now and have never been disappointed. Renee and the team are fantastic, friendly and hospitable. Always there to charge ya vape, quick to refill your drink happily and have a pack of cards handy along with many board games. Looking to park yourself up for some drinks? Defs recommend 39!”

“Really, really yummy! I recommend the Indo-Chinese chicken momo and the spicy Indreni naan- absolute show stoppers! And great service from Aviskar”

“I’ve had two great experiences here! They’ve gone above and beyond to ensure that guests with allergies or restrictions feel not only accommodated, but welcomed. So incredibly kind and friendly! Allergens are clearly noted on the menu and they went out of their way to let me know what precautions they take to minimize the chance of CC. The food was incredible, and I’m glad I went with their recommendations. The note on the menu re: customizing tasting and set menu options to your dietary restrictions was really nice to see. I’m celiac and felt very understood when I noted a severe allergy.”

“Super friendly staff respect everyone and give superb service. Food is so yumm and nice and drinks are professionally made. I highly recommend this place to those who enjoy cosy and friendly bar. I'll definitely go there again because I enjoyed it a lot.”

“I had my 60th birthday at Crown Range Lounge. From the first meeting with Sam I knew I had found the right venue for a private function. The whole process of pre event details was dealt with professionalism and nothing was a problem. On my birthday I arrived to everything as we planned. The venue oozed cool atmosphere and the staff were lovely and warm to my guests. The whole experience I couldn’t fault. I would 100% recommend Crown Range Lounge as a venue.”

“A very memorable restaurant. Slightly mysterious unassuming very plain exterior but inside it's a whole different story! A lot of protocols being followed by the staff which create a special atmosphere. Food amazingly tasty. Every sauce is so tasty I was scraping my plate! The raw fish is the best I've ever tasted. The set menu is very good value and exactly what they promise - a taste adventure. Better make a reservation as they were full after we came and turned away several groups after us. I've never tasted Korean food like this or seen the rituals before. Beautiful attention to detail and highly organized preparation. An experience you'll want to repeat!”

“Em was an excellent beer guide, you couldn't ask for someone more welcoming and wonderful. I appreciated my time! Sarah also helped with my last beer and I'm lucky to have met such fabulous hosts!”

“I had the distinct pleasure of eating at Di Vino Bistro for the first time. It was a most wonderful experience, the service was amazing, the food incredible and the price very reasonable.”

“We found this amazing place, one of our favorite Korean food is Gamja-tang. Their Gamja-tang is worth every bite and money we paid for. Kudos to the owner, he is very kind, friendly and all the staff are very attentive, checking customer's need. We are so glad and happy customers, we could not stop talking about this hidden jem!!! Great experience, awesome traditional and authentic food, cherry on top, the service is genuine and more worthy than fine dine in. They try to explain the ingredients and dish specially for non-Korean. Will definitely come back here at FRIENDS, Highly recommended, this totally stood out among nearby korean resto around!!!”

“My fourth visit here, this time with family to try the spring menu. We had the pear and honey special with focaccia, lamb shoulder pappardelle and the cacio e pepe. Everything was so yum, but the pappardelle was the standout for me. The staff were, as always, warm and helpful with great recommendations from the specials and wine menu. Always a great experience, and I’m looking forward to seeing what’s on the next seasonal menu!”

“# Amazing pizza# Must try the special truffle pizza，actually 45 is not cheap，but worth it！ Special menu like a gift， everyone is perfect including the drink. If you are first time to there like me，just talk to the friendly staff，believe their recommends.”

“I visited here on my last night in Auckland after seeing a show at Spark Arena. The staff were all really attentive even though it was a pretty busy nice. The place was decorated beautifully and there was plenty of places to sit. I had the Kawasawa cocktail and I really enjoyed it! All of their signature cocktails looked fantastic and it was so difficult to choose.”

“First time here for dinner, my family are locals & I wanted to tag along, great atmosphere, excellent customer service & friendly staff, thanks Moe for signing me up as a member ($5) & for giving me the details (very informative), I definitely enjoyed dinner, pork chop combo with egg, salad & chips, the other orders were the hamburger & chips, fish & chips, dessert was nice too, cheap prices & humble food, I will be returning back very soon, thanks again!”

“I want to know when the pizza arrives! It's so delicious that I wish I could eat it anytime. The atmosphere is nice, friendly, and especially the outdoor seating is great.”
