For outrageously good pizza and craft beer, try this rooftop bar…
Thanks to their fresh bites, great vibes and awesome service, Mr Murdoch's is the bar to beat in Auckland.
Step onto a cool roof terrace, with urban-jungle vibes and live DJ music, and soak up the view of the city. Relax with a Little Creatures beer, or dive straight into their tasty sharing boards, snacks and wood-fired pizzas.
These are no ordinary pizzas. Their toppings are bold flavour-bombs that defy logic, like the scrumptious chicken with brie and pistachio cream, or the pulled lamb with eggplant and spinach. Top tip: save room for the cinnamon donuts.
Located on Fort Street in the heart of the city, be sure to try this vibrant pop-up!

Sammy Farrell - dined at Mr Murdoch's on 12 July 2019
We really enjoyed our time at the Summer Pop-up.
As soon as you walk in the bar and restaurant look amazing, such cool decoration all around.
The staff were lovely, smiley and friendly
Our food was amazing, nothing extravagant and that's perfect. Nice easy, tasty food. We loved the jalepenos poppers and the squid in particular!
All topped off with good quality Little creature beer. Exactly what we needed!
Would definitely come back and recommend

The customer service was excellent, the shift manager took care of us the moment we walked in. All the other staff were really helpful and welcoming . The food was great & we weren't left waiting long after we ordered. The Fish sliders and the cheese board was delicious. Definitely impressed and will be coming back. I'd definitely recommend this place to others :)

Definitely would recommend coming here. Without a doubt one of the coolest rooftop bars I've ever been. Service was so friendly and everything was so organised. Food was amazing and drink selection was great also. For sure will be coming back.

The summer pop up with Little Creatures was a delight. It was held at a beautiful venue that had both indoor and outdoor seating available as well as two bars. Very well decorated in both spaces and personally was a big fan of the open roof outdoor space that was livened with greenery. Staff were lovely and helpful. Great range of drink options on the menu. The Nosh board was huge and highly recommend as it had a good mix of cheeses, crackers, meats and finger food which was perfect for sharing amongst our group of four. Yum pizzas as well. Highly recommend!

Very pleasant, friendly staff. Yummy dinner, stealk, fries and a salad .. everything was seasoned and tasty. Salad was (although only a side) could have been just wee bit more generous - thanks

Very tasty pizza! But quite slow service. Think it was just quite a busy night with there was only one person on the bar outside. But a great spot on the rooftop!

I came here with a group of friends before q concert and we had a great time! We ordered a platter and some pizzas and the food was delicious! We loved the lamb so much, we ordered more.

Mike Foster - dined at Mr Murdoch's on 18 October 2019
Dinner on a Saturday evening - quick and friendly service in a nice rooftop setting. Quite chilly - blankets would be a good addition here - and when we arrived staff were still visibly cleaning (scrubbing the stairs and walls) which was a little off putting. The food was basic and not particularly inspiring but was enough to fill us up.
Tessa Hawley - dined at Mr Murdoch's on 21 September 2019
We were celebrating my visa approval and this was a perfect way to start the night. We were seated outside near the DJ who was playing at a great volume where we could still talk and enjoy ourselves. The lighting outside was lovely and we had a great view of the surrounding buildings. I have been looking for a great steak and finally found one. The dessert was Pavlova ice cream and we managed to finish it even though we were so full
Marie Montgomery - dined at Mr Murdoch's on 27 September 2019
Meet up with a workmate here for a casual catch up. Nice space, really nice food, and amazing service! Brought out something we hadn't ordered due to a misunderstanding, but they let us have it on the house, and quickly got things sorted. Delicious food - would recommend.

Amazing food and excellent service. Try and get a seat outside (weather permitting) as it's definitely the drawcard for this restaurant. I recommend the meat board, especially for a group booking - delicious!

Dawn McHugh - dined at Mr Murdoch's on 6 July 2019
We had such a great time! The fire alarm went off about 15 minutes after we arrived, which meant we had to vacate the building. The staff were super helpful and friendly about it all and offered everyone in the bar a free drink once we were allowed back in. Great atmosphere! They were very helpful with moving outdoor heaters closer to our table to make sure we were comfortable the entire night
