Bar pub in New Zealand

“Love this place more than i love myself”

“Always a pleasure with Ali and Grant”

“I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! As a vegetarian, it’s often hard to find good options in Auckland, but this place truly impressed me. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful—they even customized a pizza exactly to my liking, and it turned out absolutely delicious! The food was bursting with flavor, and we also tried a non-alcoholic cocktail that was super tasty and refreshing. Overall, it was a perfect day, and I’m so glad we chose to dine here. Highly recommend to anyone, especially fellow vegetarians!”

“Absolutely delicious food and decent service. The food couldn’t have been better absolutely chefs kiss as always! Service was good though was a bit disappointed that when the waitress poured our water she spilt quite a bit over the table and said she’d be back to clean it up but never did so we ended up using a serviette. Atmosphere was nice. Overall a really good experience. Definitely recommend if you want good food! Just bear in mind that it is pricey”

“Was absolutely amazing. Greeted by friendly staff and taken straight to our table on a busy Saturday (we had booked and would probably recommend as was very busy) Companion had the kumara burger and it was delicious. I had the platter "for 2" which was phenomenal decent portion of each item and all were delicious. We then had desserts and they were very tasty. All the staff were very nice too. Will definitely be back!”

“I went to Caffe E Cucina for a tinder date (which went pretty well, I think she likes me!) for lunch, and had a great time. We ordered different kinda small plates from the prima section of the menu and shared those which worked well as we weren't super hungry. The service was good, and prices not toooo bad. The food was definitely the highlight (after the company) with everything cooked to perfection. Seared tuna blew my mind.”

“On Saturday night, we celebrated a friend’s first home purchase with dinner at Gina Restaurant. From drinks and entrées to mains and desserts, everything was absolutely delicious. Our waitress was wonderfully attentive, moving effortlessly between tables with a warm, contagious smile. Thanks to the entire Gina’s team, we enjoyed a truly joyful celebration. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Not our first time at Elmos, and once again it didn’t disappoint. We were lucky enough to catch the last round of truffle season ,the dishes were absolutely amazing. The service was 5-star, attentive and friendly throughout. The environment is cozy, surrounded by beautiful paintings and stylish décor.”

“Absolutely love the food here! I always get the quesadillas and eat it all up every time. The service was also great, the staff were attentive and fast. The interior is nice and clean, just in the day there are a lot of wasps inside especially in the sunny areas near the windows.”

“Siobhan and Mikayla are such an asset to Mayfield. We were looked after so well. Our Mimosas made delicious! Joyful and professional- the team was so impressive with the way they bounced a disgruntled customer … he was so out of line. Well done ladies.”

“**Great food, relaxing vibe, and excellent service** We stopped by Florrie McGreal's Irish Pub in Takapuna and had a great experience. We ordered the buffalo wings (next time we'll go for the hot ones—these were mild but still tasty), shoestring fries, the pulled pork burger, and the beef brisket burger. Everything was fresh and satisfying, especially the burgers which were full of flavour. Special shoutout to Nelli for her fantastic service—she was attentive, friendly, and made us feel welcome. We sat outside, which was perfect for a chill afternoon, watching the world go by. Definitely a spot we’d come back to for a relaxed meal and good vibes.”

“Booked via First Table, so received 50% off meals, which made the value extremely good!”

“A little piece of Belgium right in the heart of Mt Eden village. Food is good and there are some days with specials at a very nice price (need to purchase a drink to get the deal though). Service is good and sometimes speak French! Yay! Can be very busy at times!”

“First time visiting today and we were impressed, the kids had a blast so we will definitely be back”

“The team at 55 Café truly impressed us with their exceptional service in hosting the Asian Boss Collective 2025 event for Business North Harbour. We are incredibly grateful for their dedication and attention to detail, which went above and beyond our expectations. From the initial planning stages weeks in advance, the team made sure every need was met. A special thank you for your generosity in allowing us to stay longer than planned, giving everyone the time to unwind, relax, and enjoy each other’s company in such a welcoming atmosphere. The food was absolutely delicious, and the team ensured everything ran smoothly during the busy event days. We highly recommend 55 Café to anyone looking for the perfect location to create a memorable, professional event experience. We can’t wait for our next visit!”

“Indian restaurant in Ellerslie. A real gem of a restaurant. Can't fault any aspect of this place. The food was delicious, fresh and tasty and the service was very good. We were a party of 11 and all our meals were made within a reasonable time from ordering. The decor really adds to the experience. I look forward to going back when I'm in the country and in the mood for great quality Indian cuisine.”

“What a sumptuous feast, we practically licked our plates clean! The staff were all very friendly and helpful which made the dining experience such a memorable one”

“Hosted my 21st here at Ghost Donkey and it was honestly the best experience ever! The staff went above and beyond to make the night special, their service was friendly, attentive, and made everything run smoothly. The food was incredible (especially the tacos!) and the drinks were amazing. The atmosphere was fun, vibrant, and perfect for a celebration. A massive thank you to Bobby and the Ghost Donkey team for making it an unforgettable night. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a spot with great vibes, great food, and truly exceptional service!”

“Good local bar and restaurant. Foods are nice and very friendly service.”

“Walked into a hidden Gem in Kingsland. I’d never heard of this place but is a quaint Bar & Eatery that I have raved about. Started lunch with a few glasses with the view of the back of Eden Park. Steak meal was juicy and full of flavour then our sharing plates Macaroni and Cheese with Bacon as well as Spicy Chicken went down a treat. Seemed as if I inhaled the food. Owner/Manager is a cute and outgoing. Didn’t come across as a robot but actually gave us his time. Also knew what he was talking about re menu as the food was devoured in peace (Thats when you know its good and also tasty)”

“Dropped by on a Tuesday and was pleasantly surprised by their steak special with eat value and cooked just right. The mussels were fresh and nice, definitely a highlight. It is a lively spot, but I managed to get a table straight away with no wait, which was a bonus. Staff were friendly and attentive.”

“So loud in here at night probably because of all of the voices bouncing off the hard walls haha, but friiendly, fun staff and cool underground feeling decor. Reminds of NYC for some reason; like a pub next to an old metro station. Burger was pretty excellent from what I remember. I'll come back at some point.”

“The food was soo good! We all ended up sharing and tasting each one's dish. They were faultless! Staff we friendly, efficient and professional. High recommend. I'll definitely go back!”

“We came here for dinner on our first night in Auckland and it delivered! Niro and her team were gracious to seat us close to closing and quickly took our orders and served us. We are so grateful we had the opportunity to eat here as part of our honeymoon. The drinks were crisp and the food was incredible. I ordered the pepper steak and my husband ordered the spaghetti bolognese per the staff’s recommendation, and neither of us could stop eating and cleaned our plates. Not to mention the privacy the booth seating provided and the joyous Christmas decor! Highly recommend stopping in if you have the chance.”

“Recently I had the pleasure of organising a staff lunch at The Cav. All staff I dealt with were incredibly helpful and accommodating as we had a few unknowns leading up to the day, and everything went smoothly at their end. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was great. Wonderful way for us to end the year. Definitely recommend if you're looking to have a function.”

“Super friendly and attentive staff, they made us feel very welcome from the second we walked in. Really nice ambience and lots of space to move around and places to sit down. We visited on the steak special night, was great value for $29 including choice of 2 side dishes . Will definitely be back .”

“Accessible to students, has a good atmosphere with a pool table and small karaoke bar!”

“Our go to for a good pub burger, steak & fries and a cold one. Awesome karaoke & music in the background. A proper NZ pub for sure! Would highly recommend if your wanting a good pub feed.”

“We hired out Wynyard Pavilion for a corporate end of year event and everything was amazing. The food, service and atmosphere were all great. A massive thanks to Oceane for her wonderful organisation and communication skills. She made all of the planning easy and painless which caused the event to be a huge success.”
