    Wonderful place for the kids, with alot of safety measures taken but be ware it's not an enclosed park and it might be risky if the kids will run out to the road. But generally it's a fun place for the kids and an open space for the adults.

    A park located by an intersection. It has a playground, which is good for children. It offers a spacious area where you can relax and have a picnic with family and friends. Moreover, there is an interesting sculpture of a big boy in striped shirt. Near the park are good Asian restaurants.

    This is a delightful park which has more than just play equipment. It has a lot of water play equipment so make sure the kids bring their togs. It has nice shady trees and a band rotunda. A great place for a picnic lunch or dinner and close to takeaways if you don't feel like bringing your own.

    The Potters park is one of the oldest park in Auckland. Commenced in early 19th century. The park has splash pad, basketball court and beautiful green lash to seat and enjoy. The perfect place to and visit in summer. Plenty of place to seat and enjoy while your kids enjoy playing in the water. There is small playground as well. Changing room and public toilet is available too.

    Great park in the middle of Mt Eden. They turn on the sprinklers for kids in the summer it's great. Just parking is pretty scarce that's all. Can park across the road or on the side of the road.

    One of the loveliest places to go and have a great time with family or friends. Perfect to do some exercise, play basketball, take some photos or simply make a small picnic. And the best happens during summer oh is such a refreshing paradise.

    Great park, spacious for your kids to run around. Great for a family outing (pack some lunch, mat and also take spare clothes)... kids bathing suits incase your child decides to get wet as the water park is a major hit with my family. Only downfall is finding parking, but apart from that's it's and awesome lil park.

    One of the better parks between Mount Albert to Mount Eden area especially during the summers as it has fountains and showers for the kids. The park has some slides and swings as well. Also it has playground where elders can enjoy football or rugby. I often take my daughter here. She quite loves it here.

    I love this place. There is so much for kids to do. We can even bbq there and just have a day filled with lots of fun. This is a must do. Only bummer with this places is that we got a $60 parking fine. But I suppose we also had to look around and read some of the signs.

    Had a lovely family picnic in the afternoon. No time for toddlers to get bored here. Make sure to park your car on neighbouring streets and walk up to the park, not on the Manukau road as this is bus only lane and ticket may be issued. Would love to come here again for sure.

    Great park for kids. Has basketball courts, which were busy the day I came. Also with the sun out, the water works feature was on, great fun for the little ones, and the doggies too, on leash here.

    Massive park, big history in Auckland. Bet there's treasure underneath, anyway, see if you can find the teeny tiny brass villa hiding among the grounds... Better after sundown so you can see the lights come on and a centerpede making himself at home!

    Always one of my son's favorites! It is one of the earliest parks we went to. Big playground for all ages. There's a water playground too. Toilets were clean and dry. Close to many bus stops. KFC is across the park. Love Potters Park! :)

    Great park with all that you need for the kids to blow off some steam and cool down. Park, bball courts, playground, water play, bike course, bbq, shade…

    Favourable play area for children. I took my kid to the park on a Saturday morning, it was crowded, and my kid still enjoyed the park. The major item is the slide. It was a little taller but it attracted all the kids at a time. It's a water park, but on that day they have stopped it, it was disappointing.

    My daughter love to play water in this park when The splash water keep Running of water she wouldn’t stop good place for kids having fun

  • 5/5 Josephine A. 1 year ago on Google
    This park has it all: grass knolls, shady trees, gazebos, a playground, benches scattered around so you can look at nice trees or the Walking Boy. I do not understand who made the Walking Boy, or why. I try to ignore him. But otherwise this park is lovely.

    Much better than we last went there. Fountain working and great size to host an event too.

    It was so big my children enjoy the place

  • 5/5 Alex T. 1 year ago on Google
    A lovely park with awesome playground. The only one that I know of having water features for kids to play with. Jam packed in every hot days with kids big and small; all having a blast playing and soaking themselves with water. So, make sure you bring extra clothes and towels with you. The downside, the toilets are sometimes closed and locked up for no reasons. If want to visit and not sure which one is it, just look for the statue of a giant boy having a stroll.

    Sunny day and your young kid will enjoy the water pad splash in this park. If you stay nearby and you have kids younger to 10 and if they don't hate water it's a must place for them in afternoon

  • 5/5 Joseph G. 1 year ago on Google

    Lots of activities for the kids. Has a little water park for those hot summer days, basketball court heaps of space to picnic, play cricket or just hang about under the shady trees. The park is just across the road KFC Balmoral and a couple minutes walk from Balmoral town centre.

😠 I went 2-3 times to eat mahaparsad. But it has happened every time that after eating when we washed the dishes there was no dishwashing and we just clean with water and then they wipe with cloth to eat for next time. But dishes are not clean without soap. That’s not hygienic at all.

👍👍 Just 15min drive from the CBD and you feel like you’re in a tropical forest. Peaceful and quiet and the waterfall is really beautiful. There’s also a nice walk in the area.

Had the most expensive hot dog ever($9.5) in one of the 2 food stalls inside. Garden itself is not so well maintained, and nothing really reflect the “festival”. Most...
