New Zealand Restaurants

and Eating Places!

New Zealand restaurants offer our specialty New Zealand foods which are the basis for the New Zealand Pacific Rim fusion style meals. You can also select from all styles of ethnic restaurants, buffets, and a wide range of food outlets from the most expensive luxury cuisine to very inexpensive.

Eating in the suburbs will be much cheaper than in the central city districts, where they have higher overheads.

Pub Meals and Food Halls

Pub Meals

Many of the pubs and bars have cheap tasty meals. Usually simple homestyle cooking you will find they have something for all the family.

Food Halls

There are many food halls where you can wander around and choose from a wide range of ethnic foods, chains such as McDonald’s or Wendy’s, which is great when a group all like different foods. Most shopping Malls have a Food Hall, and many are stand alone in built up areas. Sometimes they are styled on a specific style of food. Eg in Northcote in Auckland there is an Asian Food Hall where you can enjoy Indian, Japanese, Vietnamese, Chinese, Malaysian, Korean and Thai meals.

Restaurants - Ethnic Eating

Indian - This is usually a very reasonably priced meal. Many Indian meals are still only $10 – 11 a dish.

Thai – around $15
