the views are immaculate and the food even more so. If you like delicious stuff try the scallops and be ready for a blown mind.

Got a spare 5 hundy and someone special to impress? Take them to Clooney and they will marry you on the spot. A truly unmatched fine dining experience. Everything is perfect from the venue, to the service and most importantly the food.

best chicken meals in Auckland hands down. Rolls are my favourite but I’m down with the whole menu.

fresh snapper sliders are out of this world - so fresh tasty and juicy. Can’t wait to come back and try them again - this time i’m not sharing.

best breakfast restaraunt in akl, The smashed avvo with chilli eggs is one of my favourite meals and I’m slowly eating my way through the entire menu. Would reccomend to anyone.

This is my favourite spot for picking up dinner on the go. The rolls are around $10 and they’re full of delicious free range pulled chicken, amazing sauce (korean bbq is the best) and veges. If you’re feeling super healthy go for one of their salads.

Half and half - eggs and mushrooms on toast is a life changing experience on bread. Plus it’s cheap as chips and they do the best coffee in Auckland.

Grab a sambal curry for $14 - it’s healthyish and most importanly cheap/delicious. (if you don’t care about healthy too much, grab a roti to).

All the food here is cheapish, gluten free, organic, sugar free and all that other good stuff. So you don’t have to feel bad when you can’t stop eating their delicious fare.

In a rush and hungry? Grab the protein boost from Tank, it’s packed with all sortsa healthy stuff and it fills you up for only 7 bucks.

Do I even need to say it. Burger Burger makes the best Burgers in Auckland by a decent margin. If you want to taste perfection try their pulled pork masterpiece - it’ll change you.

If you’re serious about burgers Velvet will satisfy your cravings. The menu is al big hearty gourmet creations and you can even enjoy a swappa of speights while you wolf down a big bro.

The third pounder with cheese is probably my very favourite burger in AKL. Burger Burgers are better techincally but something about this thing just rings my bells - go try it you won’t regret it.

They’re cheap, they’re straight ahead but lord they’re tasty. Used to be my absolute favourite Burger place before the likes of Burger Burger and Burger Fuel came and blew my mind.

I feel bad for including this. But that big BBQ Western is so bad its good. massive tasty fast food - far better than maccas or bk.

Hands down - the superior purveyors of flat whites, espressos and cappuccinos in Auckland. Their baristas are artists who serve it perfect every time.

Morning mission out to the beach? Go pick a cuppa up from the cafe - you’ll be suprised at how delicious it is.

Best coffee out west - plus if you’re a lover of donuts these babies are a doughy delight.

Eight Thirty are definitely one of my favourite bean brands, and these turkeys know how to make bean into beverage. Top notch cuppa.

Behind Harry and George you’ll find this wee hidden gem (ask at the bar if you can’t find it). Perfect to kick off your night relaxing with a few good cocktails and bad friends, or as a location for wooing someone special.

Browse vintage records, drink good beer and eat Brazilian street food at this Ponsonby Road icon (which is probably the only place in the world where you can do all three of these things).

When your nights over and it’s time to go home - come here if you don’t know what’s good for you. My favourite bar in Ponsonby, where you’re guaranteed to get up to some mischief and/or fun with like minded scallywags.

Before you start sinking Savs you better line your stomach with something hearty. Phenomenal establishments such as Burger Burger, Bird on a wire and Dante’s serve up amazing food, fast, cheapish and healthyish.

If you’re a moustachioed hipster and/or you prefer to be in a homely place where you can talk rather than a doof doof club come to Golden Dawn. There’s good beer, often great live music and the vibes relaxed and casual.

Sri Penang has to be the most authentic Malaysian food in Auckland. The place doesn’t look like much but order the nasi lemak with beef rendang or the chicken sambal and your mind will be blown.

Just like Sri Penang, Selera doesn’t look like much but it’s one of the tastiest and most authentic tastes of Malaysia in Auckland. Order the Mee Goreng noodles and smash some free green tea and you’ll find out why everyone loves this place.

one of my absolute favourite Malaysian joints in Auckland (second only to Mulan) Mamak serves the best Roti Cannai in Auckland all for a price that wont hurt your wallet.

It’s Asian fusion - but the best of the menu is definitely Malay. Grab a nasi goreng and go for your life.
