The Press Club - North End New Zealand

Had a wonderful dinner at the Press Club! The mains were executed beautifully and the flavours were superb (lamb dish and beef burger). Didn’t need extra sauces and condiments to pair with the food, which was great. Clean and tasty. The only reason I gave 4/5 is because I wasn’t informed that there will be a $20 charge for bringing a cake… I could have tried another appetiser or dessert and save the cake for later at home.

I visited with my husband about 2 weeks ago, and it was valuable. The high tea was so nice and the staff was so kind to us. Thank you

Dropped in for a coffee and it was worthwhile as coffee was great. Decor very pleasant and a nice place to meet and have a chat. Will be back to try restaurant as menu looked nice. Staff were very helpful.

Had a good meal here for Valentine’s, the cheese roll was excellent, and I enjoyed the contrast between the mustard and cucumber. Then I had the lamb which was so sweet and tender but was unfortunately under a shallow pond of bland baby food looking puree. Needed salt at least! My husband had the pork belly and encountered at least a few dry bites. But the dessert on the other hand was amazing. Perfect pairing between the matcha and lime ice cream. We really enjoyed the matcha cream log. The service was excellent except for then waitress accused us of not paying when in fact we couldn’t see the eftpost machine cause she was standing in the way.

Brilliant service and the cocktails were to die for loved the French Quarter, the Fable cocktail, the margaritas. Attentive and charming staff doing a great job ~in these trying times~ and I'm sure in any. 10/5 stars. Just a beautiful bar.
