Beau
Restaurant
👍👍 It’s difficult to find a place that is more than a bar, but not quite a restaurant. A place that feels casual enough you can enjoy your drink but also have good food. I can probably only think of one or two other spots in Auckland that achieve this and it’s a pleasure to have Beau in that category....

Sly Bar
Bar
👍👍 This place is the bees bloody knees. Ambience was amazing for somewhere located on a packed part of K road, with great service even at the busiest times. But boy, the cocktails are the highlight. Specials were good but the bounty bar cocktail was absolutely out of this world good. Spectacular select...

👍 Recently had dinner here with 2 friends, and we shared the Carte Blanche option from the menu, $75pp. We got to have a little bit of everything (chef’s selections) throughout the night (which turned out to quite a lot of food) with a bottle of Rosé ($70).
