Pub in Auckland

“Wow !! What a wonderful surprise today when we randomly selected Vino Vino for lunch on our day trip to Waiheke. Our random choice was due to the incredible views. From the start to the end the service, meal and attention was first class. We have been fortunate enough to eat at some incredible restaurants throughout the World and would have to rate this establishment right up there. The food was faultless with a perfect combination of ingredients.Connie and staff…congratulations.”

“Fantastic food as always. The service is spot on. Highly recommend”

“Absolutely the best place, love the vibe and service, have had multiple friends hold their functions here and it is always top notch, ohh and the nachos and pizzas are the best in my opinion.”

“Limited food menu and the wine list could be improved but a great vibe. The band playing were very good - 7 pm on Fridays.”

“Small and friendly. Tasty bar snacks. Lovely service. Will definitely be back”

“Always good here. Friendly and good service. Can cater to big groups. Reasonably priced as well.”

“Great little bar-excellent scotch selection. Happy hour until 7pm-good place for a pre dinner drink or a beer on the way home. Not a lot of seating but very welcoming!”

“My work team had an end-of-year function at this venue. The feedback I have received from the attendees - some 150, loved the venue the way we had the option of both indoor and outdoor seating. Phil was great with the food and the timing of it. People appreciated how he had a table for all of the dietary requirements folk so their food did not get swallowed up with the general population! From the outset Phil made it about our event, what we were looking for, our expectations and he made it all happen and within our budget! I know we will be having regular events at The Birdcage! His staff are friendly and very welcoming. Thank you Phil and Team.”

“I've always loved the cozy atmosphere in Galbraiths with a hand pull ale - makes me feel like I'm back home. Enjoyed a decent fish and chips there the other week too. Other than the beer, maybe the best part is the awesome beer garden. Whilst I saw Galbraiths as a winter pub for years, now it is one of my favourite spots to sit in the garden. Plenty of shade, but also plenty of sun, beautiful plants and a great atmosphere”

“This has to be the best local bar in Auckland! The service is exceptional, with amazingly friendly staff who make you feel right at home. The atmosphere is brilliant—lively, welcoming, and full of good vibes, with friendly local patrons adding to the charm. The beer selection is fantastic, with something for everyone, including some great craft options. The food is simple but absolutely delightful. The three-cheese toasted sandwiches are an absolute must-try, especially at midnight—they’re to die for! Plus, the option to grab fish and chips from the shop next door and enjoy them outside adds a unique, laid-back charm to the place. Perfect for unwinding with friends or enjoying a great night out. Highly recommend!”

“I've had two great meals here with friends over the last year (which is also how often I've been to Auckland over the last year lol), the Mussels are delicious! This time they had a new dessert on the menu, a Banoffee Pie, and it was stand out good!! 100% will order again if I'm back in Auckland. The staff are fantastic, really attentive and good at what they do, they make you feel like family. And they are so careful with dietary restrictions, we have a few coeliacs in our group and with everything on the menu being available as gluten free, they really enjoyed themselves, and the staff double check about the dietary restrictions to ensure no issues.”

“The pizza is really good value and quality. The $6 drinks menu is also very good. Would recommend!”

“Lovely place, I have a coffee ☕️ here most Sunday afternoon..I think every other Sunday they also have live music, which starts at 3pm.”

“Very kind and friendly staff. The place is nice and clean. The food is absolutely delicious – the samosa chaat is my favourite! Prices are very affordable too. Highly recommend this spot.”

“Friendly staff and good amount of sitting space. The South African owner is the chef. We enjoyed the ribs and chicken. Good portion too. Found this restaurant on zomato, otherwise wouldn't have known about it.”

“We used good George’s function room for a baby shower, and it was a phenomenal experience! The team were absolutely amazing, so accommodating, we ordered the food from the venue and it was delicious! Highly recommend their venue for any event and will definitely rebook for another event”

“Pleasant visit while waiting for my flight… Food was served fresh and hot. Drinks and prices were reasonable.”

“Amazing food and service! Beef cheek on Toast was amaaaaazing!! Started eating before I took a photo but hope it does the meal justice!!”

“Thank you to the team at The Oakroom for hosting an excellent lunch with an important client. The food was fantastic, the staff were warm and welcoming, and the service was outstanding. You truly made our end-of-year client lunch memorable! Regards, Grant”

“Went in and had a few drinks. Luvd the vibe. Super friendly staff and patrons.”

“Friendly&helpful bar staff.the kitchen staff&food was yummy&very moreish.good vibe all round.”

“Amazing food and service. Every dish we ordered was delicious and the service was impeccable. Thanks for an incredible evening and memorable food. Look forward to coming again ☺️”

“This place is superb! Delicious Panhead craft ales, fantastic food and excellent service! Oh, I nearly forgot the view... Wow!”

Pine Harbour Eatery leans into a simple, bistro‑style approach with tidy execution. Outdoors works well when the weather plays along. Packaging keeps things in good shape to go. Serve sizes show solid value.

“Staff are so welcoming. Great bar too have a few drinks. Good atmosphere. Nice and tidy.”

“If you haven't been to this cafe, then you're missing something very good in Beachhaven. I think it has new ownership and they deserve to survive. The coffee is great. It's Altura my husband's favourite. Lots of people were coming and going, which is good to see. The food could have been at any five-star establishment.”

“Great place, loads of bars in browns bay but this one has a bit of character and the prices are the best around . Really nice friendly staff. Propa decent bit of food and portions are massive especially the hake and chips I think. If your just passing through I honestly recommend coming here for few beers and food.”

“Top notch customer service with very friendly team. We were served by Sophia who answered our queries about the menu and also was kind enough to take our photo. Its always a delight to come to Elephant Wrestler especially for big groups. They have plenty of space and kid-friendly atmosphere during lunch time. There’s a variety of food to choose from, always tasty, fresh and never dry. We enjoyed the pork belly and sirloin steak. Tiramisu is a must-have for dessert! We will definitely come back again.”

“This place is actually amazing! I've been here a few times and the food is always amazing and the staff are the best! Our waiter (think his name was Alif) tonight was so considerate and went above and beyond despite being super busy”

“My favourite cafe I should say Bakery as they make their own breads and many more items Great service all together even if it’s busy weekend Saturday morning breakfast time in their cafe #Yummy food #Smiling and welcoming staff #Reasonable prices #Must go and eat Next to their cafe you see countdown, Westpac Bank, GYM and other eating place”
