Home to Bianca, One of Auckland's Most Talked-About Restaurants
Ellerslie is home to Bianca, the pasta shop and restaurant from chef Hayden Phiskie that has turned the neighbourhood into a dining destination. Praised as one of the hottest tables in Auckland and rated highly by diners, Bianca draws pasta lovers from across the city to Robert Street, where handmade pasta is made fresh daily to enjoy in-house or take home.
From Popular Names to Hidden Gems
One of the greatest drawcards for Ellerslie is the huge choice of eateries offering an incredibly diverse range of cuisines. There are the popular names such as Hell Pizza and Burger Fuel, but sit-down restaurants are in abundance too. There's the casual atmosphere of O'Dowd's Irish Pub and the Union Post, where you can watch the latest All Blacks game, or the tiny Charlie Baxter's, a cosy and intimate bar decorated with a ton of vintage memorabilia (including a stag head) and a snug outdoor area at the rear.
Family Nights Out and Easy Dinners In
For a family night out, there's a fantastic choice of eateries covering everything from Mexican and Japanese to Chinese, Indian and Thai. And if you can't make it out to Ellerslie for dinner, don't forget you can always order home delivery. Some local eateries such as Saneh's Thai Restaurant do their own delivery, or there's always Uber Eats.
