    It's remarkable how this terrific arcade from 1924 has not only survived but is way better than 10 years ago. The Green Dolphin bookstore is the best place to buy books in K Road. Gemayzae Restaurant serves fantastic modern mid Eastern style food for sharing. Mo's barbershop is legendary for the sharpest men's hair styles in the area. And the Japanese bar is also totally fun to go to with friends. Best Japanese whisky selection in Auckland. I like this book focused place immensely. Stalgic Society is a great place.

    It looks like it has recently been renovated and it looks really nice. This arcade provides a thoroughfare to Myers park from K Rd (Entrance between Sals and Lord of the fries). However there is more to it than that. This arcade contains speciality shops like bookstores as well as a few different restaurants and cafes. What lured me here recently was Acho's, a Japanese tapas restaurant but upon arriving I noticed that there are other places here that looks really interesting such as Gemmayze Street. Definitely worth visiting especially if you are looking for a place to eat.

    If only Auckland had more places with the vibe St Kevins arcade has. Lovely selection of small business stores and eateries, Bestie spilling out into the communal area down the end looks like a great space to eat and chill. Enjoy the graffiti wall on the way down to Myers Park.

    I love this Arcade with all the shops that almost everyone can find what want. Food and drinks, clothes, books and other second hand goods.

    I love St Kevin's Arcade it's the best precinct of its kind in Auckland. Boutique shops, cool eateries and love music venues. It's getting a bit more gentrified, but is still a bit edgy and gritty. My only criticism is I wish their opening hours were clearly published as it's a key through-route between K Rd and Myers Park and it's a massive hassle on the rare occasions where they close it completely.

    Funky place, interesting eats and shops. Lovely view over the city. Go for a walk through Myers Park (during the daytime - best avoided the park at night or so I am told).

    It is a cute arcade, art deco style, access to the Myers Park, usually busy towards the end of the week with the bar open, cafe during the day and a good view of the SkyCity Tower

    Hadn't been there for a while... Still the St Kevin's I remember. Had a chai latte and was on my way.

    Long time Auckland icon. Reinvented recently. Lots of unique little stores still and some new cafes.

  • 1/5 Famishedgoat 1 year ago on Google
    Besties cafe is good. But the tyrannical owner of the camera shop Junktion is a lying second hand loser. Had argument over a camera that didn’t work and he did nothing about. Then one day he came into the cafe I was having coffee and abused me out of nowhere. Repulsive man. Lier. Be warned

    At St Kevins Arcade to go to the infamous White Lady... Lovely homemade Burgers (bit expensive but quality and worth it)... The rest of the Arcade is great to with a funky vibe...
