Bar pub in New Zealand

“Had dinner here the other night here indulging in some quality food. Never dissapoints with service everytime I come here. I ordered the king prawns, oysters, brocollini, flounder and eye fillet to share with my mother and we both left satisfied. Great value too if you have accorsplus so you can benefit from the dining discounts.”

“Great bar like going back to the 80s ,raffles jukebox pool table and friendly people”

“Great vibe, food is delicious! Language can’t describe how good the dumplings are - we’ve finished them before taking the photo!”

“Excellent venue , great barman who made sure we had a great time . I didn't try the food but my mate had fish and chips which looked nice”

“Had a very fun night here on Saturday, very inviting place, I will be back soon, cheers for an enjoyable evening girls.”

“I decided to try The Cut and found their lunch special. The staff was very accommodating with my preferences and allergies, I'm pretty sure the chef checked on me. I told him it was nice to get a cheeseburger with crispy bacon and while the burger was messy it as very good. I also enjoyed the side salad of spinach, cabbage and cucumber that was very good and crunchy. I didn't want potatoes usually served along side and it was a good decision. I was only able to eat half my burger before I had to leave because of my allergies. I enjoyed the other half a couple hours later after it had set and wasn't so messy and the remainder of the burger for dinner. I really enjoyed this burger and can leave Auckland sastified.”

“Beautiful views and the staff are very compensating. We walked in with no reservation and luckily it wasn't busy. I'd suggest making a booking before arriving. We only stayed for a pre dinner drink but we will have to go back again to experience the place more.”

“Booked for our Christmas function. The Platters and Pizza were excellent with a great assortment. Bar staff were friendly and the wait staff attentive, especially Riley was looking after our table. Will definitely visit again”

“Mothers day dinner was good, but the real winner was our lovely wait staff! She was attentive and lovely. So the service won this night. Being the first time going it was a win!”

“I can only rate the bar and the meal, as we didn't stay at their accommodation. Although the restaurant was closed, we were able to order at the bar. The bar was very busy, but the staff took our order and brought our drinks promptly to us. We both ordered the chicken parmigiana and were very happy with it. The serving size was more than enough, and we felt the wait really wasn't that long at all, especially considering how busy they were. I'd be happy to return again the next time I'm in Auckland.”

“What a great place to discover. This friendly bar and restaurant about 60 metres from Waiwera beach has the relaxed beach vibe in abundance. Inside there is a restaurant end with about 8 tables, then there is a bar area which opens into a covered outdoor area with pool table and pizza bar with wood fired pizzas. Service was friendly and functional and the business seems to be family run. Food was excellent. Best lamb shank I’ve had in ages with excellent flavours. Prawn salad was also very good. Beer was ice cold and they had a good collection of spirits as well as smoothies and non-alcoholic drinks. I think for me the relaxed atmosphere was what I enjoyed the most - like stepping into some place you’ve known all your life and instantly relaxing. Waiwera town feels a bit run down but the history with the hot pools (now closed) is interesting and it has retained its sleepy charm. If you’re going to Wenderholm consider lunch or dinner at Sugarloaf beach bar.”

“This was one of one the better evenings out I've had in a while! The food was delicious, the drinks were refreshing and tasted amazing. The service was outstanding, the servers who were looking after us were attentive, friendly, and made the visit enjoyable along with a few a laughs! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing evening on the Viaduct (or a fun evening later into the night)!”

“Awesome New Years (Tues/Wed). Started picking up after 1am. Way hot once it chocka block with people. Entertainment fantastic. Miss Ribena - shi the Queen knows how 2 work the crowds. Got told off by a guy who didn't want me 2 buy other bros drinks - except him LOL. Harmless guy though. Seccy ON POINT. If u behave.. U will have an awesome time. $12 most standard drinks - all goods. Awesome 2go if u new. Good people. Great atmosphere. Yep I'm drunk, but had a awesome time. 1st time (that's what she said.. but it probably wasn't.. lol). Yes it can get difficult after 12am, but PREPARE b4 hand n u will have a good time. Miss Ribena and Seccy ain't Jesus. 19 years wasn't it? That's a long time. It's a really good place to hang out after dark . Shame it ain't open 6 days a week, instead of just Fri & Sat nites. Dress is casual. Long ish pants, polo shirt etc. Awesome music. Have a few drinks b4 hand. Get relaxed and have a good time.”

“This bar is like our home, we have beeb here for many years.”

Prince Albert The Olde English Pub & Restaurant runs with a classic fish‑and‑chips menu and a relaxed pace. Fillets arrive fresh and the fry stays clean. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy. Plates offer plenty without weighing things down.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding experience — highly recommended! As a chef myself, I rarely write long reviews, but this place truly deserves it. I’d confidently give it 5 stars for the incredible value we received. The location is just perfect — peaceful, away from the city noise, yet easy to reach. We went for a family dinner- birthday celebration and were pleased to find plenty of parking available, as nearby businesses were closed at that time. The food was plentiful and well-balanced — not an overwhelming menu, but thoughtfully curated. From a chef’s perspective, every dish felt just right. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. One of our little ones accidentally broke a glass, and the team immediately stepped in to clean up and made sure we were comfortable — that kind of service speaks volumes. Overall, one of the best places to dine — whether with family, as a couple, or for a corporate dinner. Beautiful setting, delicious food, and genuine hospitality. Definitely worth visiting again!”

“Great place. The owner is friendly and fun! Highly recommend for bigger functions.”

“Good place. I always go to them when I go for karaoke. Been there since my uni days in 2005”

“Second time visiting this place and am glad the first time wasn't a fluke. Service was great, food was amazing and the indoor outdoor flow was great. We had 4 dishes - Crumbed Beef Schnitzel, lamb shank, fish and chips and the vegetarian dumplings. Generous portions for all dishes. Standouts in each meal served. From the light crispy batter on the melt in your mouth fish and chips, to the beautifully slow cooked lamb shank, to the mushroom sauce on the nicely cooked Schnitzel. The sauce for the dumplings was a lovely sesame that really complimented them. The chips served with the fish and Schnitzel were top notch as well. You could tell the oil they were fried in was fresh. Can't wait to take another venture to the Diamond Harbour Eatery and Bar.”

“I love this place. A one-stop place for awesome Chinese food. Excellent food, affordable price and a great bar. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.”

“I saw their advert in the local paper and thought I'd give it a try. WOW I was super impressed!!! Great food and super value. I went in on Tuesday for their T-Bone special. Wondering if they're consistent hehehe we went over last night (Thursday) to try their Roast Dinner special and again WOW!!!! The meal was absolutely delicious!!! It reminded me of my childhood and Sunday lunches. A superb local spot, catering for all including families with little ones. Fantastic value for money and lovely friendly staff. They will be seeing me again ...... very soon :-) Thank you Michelle”

“Awesome place to spend a few hours waiting for your flight at Wellington Airport. Head up the lift to the mezzanine level outside the Rydges hotel. We had a couple of drinks and the ordered spicy hot nuts which were Cinnamon spiced and not hot spice as expected. Burgers and fries were great and a perfect supper before flying.”

“Spend some time here waiting for my flight. Had a couple of Mac’s Gold and Beef Nachos. Would recommend for killing time at the airport.”

“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”

“lovely lil spot with great cocktails. I focused on gin as that is the foundation here in NZ, and was not disappointed with Austin's interpretations on the classics. stop through hereband enjoy the ambiance service and great cocktails!”
