Food establishment in New Zealand

“Absolutely delicious dinner and a dedicated gluten free menu!! 10/10 must visit. (A little bit more whipped feta dip with the polenta chips would be A1!)”

“Surprised how good the food was. Great chef, friendly vibes, and great views. We went during the day but will most definitely come back to for the evening menu!”

“Traveled from South Auckland to bring our son here for his birthday based off the great reviews and his love for crepes. Specifically only came for that one dish, the crepes, and man they didn't disappoint! The crepes were flavorful! Very tasty! Price is reasonable I spose. Service was great, She always had a smile, kept water topped up, greeted and farewells us. Made us feel comfortable being Hori's in a boujee environment lol Atmosphere is calm and relaxing. Beautiful view. Going back to try the meals on the menu. Highly recommended the crepes!!”

“Favourite omurice spot in the city! Yoshizawa is a quaint restaurant located on the side of a busy street. Everytime I walk in the warm smell of curry, beef, rice and chicken makes me salivate. Friendly and quiet staff, perfect if you're an introvert like me. Highly recommend getting one of their omurices, super fluffy and slurpy eggs over hot fried rice (be careful!) And wow oh wow, the curry. It is so rich and strong, well seasoned and creamy that when you pair it with the egg and rice... Absolute banger. Chef's kiss. 10/10, peak restaurant.”

“It was pretty quiet when we went on Sat. But nice open spaces and amazing pizza,cocktail was good too.”

“Really great pool hall, extremely well priced to play pool, the food is a bit on the pricier side, but it is really high quality and tasty. Had the $31 burger which was never going to be the best value, but it was very nice. Had the ribs last time and the pizza too, all very nice. Some of the best thick cut fries I’ve had. Really great place, a local favourite.”

“This place has a very nice aura and relax feel. Meat was fresh and delicious, will definitely be back again. The skewers were yummy and large portions, enough for two!”

“Love love love the Huapai tavern! The bar staff are friendly and it feels like a home away from home, live bands on a Sunday and friendly locals make this one of the best places I have been to! Highly recommend giving the Hua a go!”

“We visited on a sunny Sunday afternoon and the vibe was great. A live band was playing good tunes, not so loud that you couldn't enjoy a good yarn with your mates, and the staff were courteous and friendly. We arrived when it was very busy so the wait time for a cooked meal from the menu was an hour so keep that in mind if visiting when busy. Thoroughly enjoyed our time here and look forward to stopping in again over summer.”

“I've said it before and I'll say it again-best cafe on the North Shore! Anna has created a haven with hand picked coffee beans from around the globe, expertly roasted and carefully measured. The food is concise, with fewer options done exceptionally. The BEST ingredients and scones ever (and I've eaten them the world over-sorry Scotland!) ...caramelised cashews on top, melt in your mouth crumb and softest crystalised ginger. Love”

“If you are looking for a classic cafe style cafe then look no further, there was relief and excitement when the food arrived it was just so delis to taste that classic French toast again! The coffee was nice and overall excellent hospitality! Highly recommended.”

“I love the bears, food and drinks It’s a really cute place :) Here my brother had the big breakfast and he loved it! I drank my coffee too quickly to take a pic but it was really good! I always get a dessert here since they have traditional dulce de leche from Argentina and make everything in house ☺️”

“Really lovely bakehouse. The energy there is just awesome. Buzzing with friendly people. We started conversations with people at 4 different tables. Had lots of laughs. Hubby and me never had an experience like that in cafe before. Food was really good. Priced well for the quality and size. Not fancy foods but more like home cooked foods and even do we are foodies we still enjoyed it and went back next day and grabbed sandwich and sausage roll. Sorry no photos of those as we finished it in a hurry but sandwich was packed with tasty filling and hubby said the sausage roll was the best he ever had. So there you go. If you not sure what to try definitely grab sausage roll. Coffee was excellent. Large size came in decent large mug and was hot and delicious.”

“2024: Holy Moley!! That Fresh Cream Donut just blew my mind! Every component was perfect, soft fluffy donut filled with velvety fresh cream. Everyone within the Auckland area and beyond, set your cross hairs for this delight. 10/10”

“Awesome quick delivery, very professional, and friendly and helpful, fantastic! Thanks heaps guys :-) so appreciated for Father's Day gift”

“Good place to get your bits and bobs for the kitchen if you are staying around the area. Had fresh produce as well and the prices for their other groceries are slightly cheaper than the bigger supermarkets. Open early and closes late as well so super convenient if you are in the area.”

“Evelyn from Westgate was very helpful and lovely! fabulous wrapping!”

“Awesome service at this shop ! After a failed attempt at a different shop, came to this dairy and dealt with the most helpful guy behind the counter ! Definitely reliable and trustworthy, and will be using them from now on to send money overseas with their Western Union service available in store ! Highly recommend them”

“Stopped yesterday for a Dirty Martini and really enjoyed the vibes here. Decided to get another drink. The other cocktails on the menu looked so good. Got their twist on french 75 which they put seasonal fruits in. The fruit used in my cocktail was Tamarillo, so yum. I also ordered the pull apart bread, was nice. Definitely keen to come back for dinner service one day. ❤️”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had an amazing experience at Montrose Cafe, Bistro, and Bar! The coffee was delightful, and the server, Bruce, was exceptionally friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere and ambience were perfect, creating a cozy and inviting environment. The selection of food and drinks was impressive, catering to various tastes. Highly recommend this place for a great dining experience!”

“What a spot! My friend and I were looking for someplace new to try today and I’m so glad we found Vibe! We were impressed by the full, delicious looking cabinet. The service was excellent, and food yummy. I tried the Hokey Pokey latte and can recommend! Lots of seating too. We’ll be back :)”

“Such a lovely spot! I came in to have lunch and get a bit of work done, and I ended up staying longer than planned because I felt so good there. The staff were absolutely adorable, the tea was delicious, and there were plenty of gluten-free and vegetarian options. My meal was rich and comforting, and the tart for dessert was amazing, a bit much for just me, but can’t complain about that. I’ll definitely be back, either by myself or with friends! ✨”

“I got a birthday cake for my daughter from JM Cakery recently. I found ordering on the website very easy. The cake looked amazing, just like the photo on the website. It tasted incredible, all our guests loved it. We got a 10-inch floral vintage heart cake and it was the perfect size for 21 people with a generous serving. When we collected the cake we also got some cupcakes and they were delicious. Definitely would order again, highly recommend!”

“We have visited PINS 10 pin bowling many times. Always friendly staff who are knowledgeable and helpful. Our most recent visit was on fathers say 2025, I think they let me win! Haha. We had the most enjoyable time and everyone was happy, the refreshments were delicious and prices are reasonable! I would recommend a visit to PINS 10 pin bowling on Lincoln rd Henderson To any one wanting a nice family enjoyable fun time! Arthur C. Charlton west Auckland NZ”

“We found service just a little slow, but understandable as restaurant was full. Food was excellent. Even the starters were great, def made here not just frozen and reheated. Very happy with our experience here. Happy customers will definitely be back :)”

“This place was excellent - food was great - we really enjoyed our morning here. We sat outside on the deck which was very pleasant. Food was as delicious as it looks we will be back!”

“Haven't been for ages but this visit made me want to return more often when the music was on. It was a sunday before the music started. Had a nice meal, bartender was friendly. Good fun!”

“The easiest 5 stars I have ever given. Our jaws dropped upon seeing and tasting both our mains (lamb rump and pork belly) and desserts (apple crumble and brownie sundae). The food and service far exceeded our expectations. Empire Tavern is part of the Star Group, and you can get great deals like the Monday 2for1 mains we used simply by downloading their app. However, my friend and I would happily pay full price for these mains in future, and we decided to order dessert based on their quality and were so glad we did. I can't think of a single thing that could be improved. Thank you to the waitstaff and kitchen team who made our night one to remember and hopefully repeat again soon! Everyone should try this surprising gem in the CBD, which had a lovely positive and peaceful vibe on a Monday evening and no doubt has something great to offer any night of the week.”

“Nice veg options and amazing cocktails to try and amazing staff. I will recommend to others too”

“This is a good cafe if you are in the area. The staffs are nice. The coffee and fries are my favorite here. It is relaxed, kid friendly. Has space to seat both inside and outside. Happy to recommend them.”
