Visiting Ellerslie Village
Ellerslie Village is one of Auckland's easiest places to visit - and one of the best excuses to get off the motorway.
Just minutes from the motorway, the Village is flat, easy to navigate, and has plenty of parking options. You can access the Village via the motorway underpass from Sultan Street or the Central Park Business Centre on Great South Road, or via the overbridge from Kalmia Street.
Getting Here by Public Transport
The Ellerslie train station sits right in the heart of the Village on the Southern Line - so you can be here in just 18 minutes from Britomart. The Village is also well connected by bus, with two major stops at either end of Main Highway.

Ellerslie Eats
Ellerslie Village punches well above its weight when it comes to food. For a village this size, the range is remarkable - from Michelin-pedigree Italian pasta to authentic Thai from a chef who's been cooking since she was nine, Japanese izakaya dining with a karaoke room out the back, award-winning pies, specialty coffee roasted on-site, and some of the best casual pub dining in Auckland.
This is a proper food destination - not a food court, not a chain strip. The people behind these restaurants and cafes have built something real here, and Aucklanders who know it keep coming back.
Whether you're after a lazy brunch, a quick coffee, a long lunch or a serious dinner - Ellerslie has it covered.
