The Gardens

A diverse and enchanting venue, The Gardens in Takapuna boasts various spaces to cater to your perfect evening.

Situated on the ground floor of The Commons, their restaurant offers an intimate, yet chilled setting with heaps of sunny rays, relaxed booths and modern touches. And don't forget the gardens themselves! They are the ideal place to be during these long, hot summer evenings. Head down for a post-work pizza and drink, share a romantic meal for two, or catch up with some friends over their unique grazing plates.

Their international menu serves up some real treats! To begin, sample some of their salmon skewers, herbed lamb chops or range of homemade meatballs. Move on to an Italian favourite, like spaghetti polpettine or go true Kiwi with the NZ lamb rack or pork belly.

And that's not all; you've got a range of burgers to choose from, as well as some fresh and crunchy salads if you're after something lighter. Then head out into the gardens armed with a cocktail and see in the evening from this idyllic spot!
