    This cafe is in the heart of Ellerslie, we came here a few times for dinner where they mainly serve pub food. Their ribs and lamb shanks are good and generous portion!! However today we are here for lunch! Average food as our poached eggs are little over cooked... not the runny egg york we hoping for, and i must mention I am not a fan of their coffee. Really no coffee taste at all and over fluff...not good at all...

    Each surburb lies a best bar to hang out. Union Post is definitely the one for Ellerslie. Renovated from the previous post office, you still touch the mark of the old merging the new. Tin post drawers still keep alive as a symbol.However, mostly act as an icon for this bar. Entering on a cold winter afternoon, greeted by the warm gas fire, with piles of logs by the side, something warm lights up the mood, and also the appetite. Take a glimpse of the environment around, art deco ceiling lamps, vintage mirror walls, rustic chairs all flow in space, making the whole atmosphere with quite a character. Yes, it is named brewery&bar, so beer is essential. Non-alcohol drink also made by the Mac's, try lemon splash, or ginger beer. Wine list is average. But hey, go for beer! As for someone who is not a beer-holic, Latte is not too bad. They put it right in the transparent glass which is such a relief. As for food, nothing more proper with a pizza pairing a draught, or go with the Nacho. Beef mince with melting cheese and chili sauce to match the nacho, you wouldn't seek more. Nice waiter will ask you considerately, how much can you handle the hotness, we have rate 5, 8 and 10 here:) What a style. PS: Every Tuesday try the Quiz night. It would be crowded but fun.

    Union Post is by far the best bar/pub in Ellerslie. Like all the Macs brew bars, the interior is well designed; unique and creative. It was once the Post office (get it?) and there is plenty of space inside. There are two outdoor areas, but they are still partially covered for chilly evenings. It's good for dinner or lunch; the menu is substantial and has that little bit of creativity to step it up from the usual pub grub. On Mondays they have 2 for 1 pizza and they are scrummy. There's an interesting mix of punters; after work drinks, family birthdays and the odd stag do, so generally the atmosphere is noisy and fun.

    I love going to Mac brew bars! They're incredibly funky and alternative, Union Post is no exception. As soon as you walk in there is a warm welcoming atmosphere, nice loungers and fire place to the right, outdoor area to the left and big tables in the centre. There is a lot to look at with awesome lamp shade lights and mirrors all over the walls. The staff as very nice and do a great job making sure you have everything you're after. With a large range of Mac products on tap, including Isaac apple cider, and a wide range of New Zealand made wines, there is a somewhat kiwiana at home feeling about this place. Definitely a bar worth popping into and enjoying a relaxing drink in the many segregated areas.

    Place has nose dived, raw chips served and staff disinterested. Service was awful, premium price for sub standard product.

    Banque Oyster Bar & Eatery - raw Kaipara Oyster is stunning i've ever had

    A trendy Eatery in the suburb. This got to be better than the usual restaurant you find in the…read moreneighbourhood. We loved the atmosphere and the service there. Staff are very friendly and loved to help you with your good selection if you get stuck because of their variety! Oysters were fresh, wine was nice, food was beautifully presented and delicious! Although it said it was small but we find that reasonable to share between three of us for three small plates and a pizza. We also ordered some oysters. We will definitely go back there again. =)

    Banque is a quiet, but trendy eatery found on Remuera Road. I had been meaning to try this place…read morefor weeks after the good recommendations from a cousin. The inside is totally not what you expect. Don't be put off from this place, because its in Remuera and gives that upperclass vibe. The inside of Banque, is totally comforting and relaxing. Theres wonderful warm decor and an inside fire. Its a great place to have lunch or dinner with a glass of wine. My dining partner and I went for a quiet Friday lunch. Banque's menu is designed for sharing. The menu has a slight Asian flavour. I would def recommend having the Bluff oysters and diamond shell clams. They were served with a delicious dipping sauce. Obviously Bluff oysters are only served to season, so if you have the chance to eat them, try them! I wouldn't normally order any kind of pizza, but seeing it was a pizza bread it was a good choice for a filler, but tbh it was really tasty. The dough was super soft and flavour was great. The other two dishes were just a bit bland and lacked the same flavour excitement as the other dishes. I would recommend for Banque to just add more flavour to the ribs instead of just covering them in hoisin sauce. Although i think its a great idea serving lamb ribs as its pretty rare on other restaurant menus. Service was great, lovely guy who served us and I think i may have even tipped him. Would def recommend coming here, for good food, great atmosphere and service. Also good value for money, but Banque features in the Entertainment book if you want a good deal. Rating: Food: 6/10 Service: 9/10 Value for Money: Average 311 Remuera road, Remuera Opening Hours: Mon, Tues, Sat, Sun: 3pm-Late Weds-Fri: 12pm-Late
