The Shakespeare Brewery

Simply epic dining experience! Loved our dinner there. Attentive service and really felt they wanted to please us which they did. Amazing food and lovely wine matches. Will remember as the best restaurant I have dined at ever.

Stunning meal, even better service. It doesn't get much better than a bombe Alaska topped with meringue LIVE at your table then torched and set alight with absinthe and accompanied by the most exquisitely executed kumquat souffle...and that was but ONE of seven amazing courses PLUS three amuse bouche, bread with house made butter, palate cleanser à la John Kirwan and a beautiful birthday plate for my niece who was celebrating her 14th birthday. The Wagyu...the veal courgette flower....the tomato consomme on the scampi terrine...seriously there's nothing else to say ...stunning!

Let's not lie, The Grove is undeniably the best eatery in Auckland. The best food, service, location and parking is simply that the best.

Amazing culinary experience in the Grove on Friday. The staff was great with attention to details. Laura the sommelier was very keen to explain the wine pairing. The food was exquisite. Thank you for this moment of pure pleasure. Bravo Chef. You’re a star

Yesterday evening we went to the Grove for the second time. Again it was an unforgettable experience of hospitality and absolute world class food. A mix of contemporary and regional New Zealand food with beautiful New Zealand top white and red wines that match the food perfectly. A 10 out of 10 and we will definitely be back again!
