Came here for dinner and drinks on a Saturday. The place was pretty quiet, so the service was quite fast. Food was absolute delicious. The beef, bacon and cheese burger was hearty and full of flavour, quite filling! Basil pesto chicken was on the smaller side, but tasted amazing and was hot. There is a pool table which is a good activity to keep you there for a while.

Im sorry, I think we need to find a new favourite.

We initially discovered this place because we were searching for hot wings and this was the closest place that had them (as per photos). It then became a favourite with the buttermilk chicken burger, which was huge. The crisp fries, which also had a massive portion. But now, I don't think we will be making a return.

First thing I noticed tonight was the table we sat at hadn't been cleaned.
Second, and no disrespect to our waiter, we are sure he tried his best but he needs a lot more training to be comfortable. He seemed unsure where to place the water jug and glasses and generally unsure on how to service the table. He needed to write down out order, which is fine, but was unable to write fast enough or pick up on the short hand so that the cook may understand what was being ordered- not a massive issue, just needs more training and practice. But he also forgot a part of my burger and brought it out in a bowl on the side for me to assemble myself with no cutlery, or napkins provided to wipe my hands after touching greasy bacon.
Third, we were one of only two tables that had ordered food and it was still very slow, we used to love the fast service and how quickly our food came out. But when our food came out, some of it was cold, some hot, especially the bacon that I had to add to my burger myself.

I was disappointed that the bun wasn't at least toasted as it felt like a lot more bread than burger, and having a crispy interior makes buns less gluggy. The other issue we had was our food was considerably smaller portion sizes compared to last time even buying the same meal. I pulled up a photo to compare and it didn't look like it came from the same place.

Combined with being a little tasteless, I think we'll give this place a miss next date night.

We had a lovely meal with our teens and their grandparents. Generous portions, burgers were huge, yum dessert! Drinks reasonably priced. Nothing was too much trouble for our waitress. A game of pool kept the boys entertained after dinner. We'll be back!

Fantastic friendly down to earth staff.
Cool layout, even has a pool table.
Really delicious burgers, perfectly cooked chips. The coffee was so good, I'd just pop in for a coffee if I can't stop for food next time.
The kids meals were big and really well priced. Everything tasted fresh, and full of flavor
Absolutely loved the mix of music there.
What a cool little place in the heart of Henderson.

My first 5 star review.
Food is so good, portion sizes are great for the price.
It was a bit empty, which I believe is just a part of the unfortunate location.
We can't wait to go back again, we might even make it a weekly spot.

The menu has changed since we first went. The buttermilk chicken burger was absolutely amazing. Could just eat that chicken with a sauce on its own.

One complaint this time is the music was very repetitive. When we first went it was all 70s-80s pop/rock. This time was all 2010-20 nz pop rock on repeat and we heard the same song three times in a row.

Came up to Auckland to visit friends and had dinner here. Amazing food menu and bar snacks! All came out very quick! Cocktails are all so delicious and staff are the friendliest! The restaurant has a cool vibe that stands out from other places in Henderson! Will definitely be back next time I'm in Auckland! Highly recommend if you're looking for somewhere to meet up with friends that's not right in the city!

Would not go there again. They didn't have 3/4 of their menu available,
Chicken burger was bland chicken was dry.
Steak was tasteless and very tough.
I only went to this place as it was abit late and it had good reviews. It's a lie this place don't live up to their reviews.
Service was slow too.
Disappointed really

Fantastic spot, surprised to see it so empty, would definitely come here again, only been once but it did not disappoint.

Feels almost like a small gem, maybe it gets busier during the weekend, but Wednesday night it had almost no one in it... great for an intimate date tho.

Oh my gosh one of the best places to eat 😍! The staff were really friendly and the quality of the food was amazing! I ordered scotch fillet steak with a salad and my friend ordered the same but with fries. Both dishes came out perfect and both steaks were cooked perfectly. The dumplings we ordefed we fantastic and the garlic bread was tasty! We also ordered kumra fries which were to die for! Again lovely food and lovely service!

The food here is okay. The portions are really good but the quality is average. I've been here twice. The service is friendly, but slow. I have been here twice, first time I got a burger. Second time was a chicken meal. It's an ok place to eat but I wouldn't go out of my way.
