Reviews of Little Creatures Brewing
S.
Love this place, especially in times of Covid - like a well oiled machine. Loads of seating outside and by the water. Order online and manage your tab online. Great relaxed and friendly service. Food is fresh, tasty and much better than most pub grub. Excellent place to go if you can kayak in!
K.
Have been a few times and had an awesome experience. Food, ambience, beer all fantastic! Staff always exceptional - accommodating and friendly. Post lock down I’m grateful they enforce the vaccine passport and check ID- it made our group of friends and family safe and we could relax and really enjoy ourselves post a tough long lockdown. Also have incredible ventilation with the hanger windows open.
Shout out to the New Year’s Day staff who were so upbeat and powered through what seemed like a very busy day! My recommendations are the spicy calamari/ squid and a cold Catalina lager! Photo of our view from our New Year’s Day lunch.
C.
I have always liked little creatures. Like the new outside area and the simple ordering method. Food always good. Beer excellent. A good local. I even have the t-shirt somewhere that they were giving away when they were opening.
D.
Good vibes, good service and good food ! Due to COVID, they only have one entrance and heaps of people go to front (exit). They should really put a better sign of where the entrance is!
S.
The Creatures Bar is a great place to meet friends & family at. So much to choose from the menu. Lovely wines and craft beer.
My friends love catching the ferry over to meet me for lunch.
The new Seaside Beer Garden overlooking the water was a great addition. Well done guys. I look forward to seeing you all again.
K.
These guys have it together in every way location, great food, good selection of many drinks and the service is exceptional.
We felt very secure going there they ask for our passport and ID really doing there best to protect us as customers and the business.
Prices medium to high but for the location you have to expect that. Portions are generous
Will always go back when we can
L.
Delicious loaded fries! Best I've had in a long time. Limited menu due to COVID but they seem to have kept the favourites. Just be mindful that if you are seated outside there is no table service.
J.
Absolutely love the vibe and food there! We are vegetarians and was blown away by the delicious truffle mushrooms pizza and the loaded fries! Buffalo cauliflowers are so good too!!! Really 10/10 for food and also the service! Thank you for feeding us with such good food and taking care of us too.
M.
Burger was yummy. Paige looked after us really well too.
K.
Great service and excellent food. Perfect for family groups. Fabulous super cold beer. Pleased to see Covid passes and IDs being checked so efficiently. Thanks for a good night out.
S.
Went today and sat in their outside garden area where you scan a code to order and pay at the table with less interactions. Such an awesome set up and really well done. The staff were all lovely and processes used are the best I’ve seen in hospo so far. Thanks team for an awesome lunch!
C.
Older review below. Ben fixed all that was wrong and I have been back 2 times since.
Problem with the food seems to be just on that day. Exactly the same food was perfect. They have talked to the staff and fixes the issues.
Went it with great expectations. Well I can't say too much really, the food was on the expensive side $60 for burger and lamb. The burger which I had was dreadful. Tasted like a reheated fatty creature, was not fresh, think fresh but replace that taste with buttery oil. We just won't be back sorry.
J.
Such a great vibe. Great selection of beer on tap. Raspberry sours was 👌
Wings, fat chips and squids were excellent.
J.
Great meal and service as always. It is hard in Covid times to get all things right and the separation of the bathroom facilities might be one that could be a little improved. Staying in bubbles and separating them is ideal - perhaps the time between the day and night diners might have been used wisely with cleaning the areas of the women's toilets. The broken tap was splashing everywhere on the floor and there were bits of tissue scattered and damp. Just a little disappointing and obviously noted by many.
B.
I went here for dinner on my birthday a few days ago. The staff are really welcoming and friendly as could be. Big area outdoor seating and from what I could see indoors was huge I didn't go inside tho.
My son knocked his juice over straight away (kids aye) trent was really good about it gave another one on the house.
Trent gets huge brownie points in my book he was cool.
Would definitely come back here
h.
Great vibe and good food. toasted veg is really tasty, the highlight is the seasonings which is kind of taco mix spices. The beer I ordered is aromatic and can taste the lychee flavor.
J.
Still a great place to meet and eat some very yummy food. Excellent service and the servers are always smiling and are soooo friendly, even when 'not so nice' people give them a hard time about having to present a vaccine pass. That shouldn't happen! Those people should just STAY HOME!
I appreciate all the extra work the staff do to keep patrons safe. I will definitely eat here again, as long as the current policy remains. Thanks and take care
K.
Had a great time, waitress and waiter were friendly and welcoming. Food was delicious. The only reason it's not a 5 star review is that after the main meal was served we were forgotten about - no-one came to offer dessert or more drinks etc.
B.
Great place and great beer! I love Little Creatures beers, their brewery is just the full experience. They have pizzas and lots of plates to share while having a beer. The self-service system works perfectly too. You order and pay on your phone and your beer and food come to your table in minutes. Awesome weekend spot in Hobsonville.
S.
It was ok. Food was average - chicken burger had no seasoning on the chicken which was a bit weird. The first beer I had tasted slightly old - the second was fine though.
D.
Right at the Harbour front, big place to cater for over 100 for sure. Flat white but in the strong side and was warm, fish n chips was good small portion for a main, Lager was very nice. Service was very friendly and food came out super fast. Great place to bring family.
M.
Delcious! Great friendly service. Their lager is amazing! Same with the tyrells old vine shiraz. Proscuitto pizza is great. Brisket was yummy but just a tiny bit overcooked.
Their kingsfish for fish of the day was divine! Ample parking. Beautiful venue on the water.
E.
Exceptional location
Luxury space
Great beer selection
Foods are up to the standard
Service is efficient
Particularly the ribs are delicious
Excellent venue for family/friends gathering as well as corporate events.
H.
Nice place would be amazing in summer in sure. Had fish and chips, a bit on the expensive side for fish and chips. The experience was nice a bit like stables.
If come again but maybe get some salt and pepper on the fish and chips. Beers are nice
B.
For our first foray out after lockdown a small group of us went to Little Creatures for lunch. As expected, great food and beer, but also great processes for dealing with the hospitality Covid restrictions. The staff were professional throughout and the systems were easy to follow! Awesome job! Thoroughly recommend getting out (safely) for a meal here!
M.
Website do not accept any dates entered, keep saying ' You must be 18+" when I checked on my mobile. Well I am way over 40+...Beer Glasses are small and not usual pint size. Great choice of craft beers. Food is sort of okayish and bit pricey. Good ambience is what you will enjoy here. It's the location value.
M.
I’m giving this place 5 stars because of the surprise factor, it’s really cool! I went there on a Saturday morning and it was packed but we got a table fairly quickly. I really liked the atmosphere, the menus’ variety and of course, the beer. We ordered pizza and spicy prawns and everything was delicious.
After lunch you can go for a walk along the waterfront which is lovely.
G.
Great venue with friendly staff. There is a selection of beers that are brewed on site and all beers are available for takeaway. The table service makes the experience better and the food was cooked fresh and very tasty. In terms of transport there are ferries from Auckland City and local buses
C.
Absolutely amazing place to chill out on Sunday afternoon. We ordered the crispy squid, smoked fish croquettes and shoe string fries to go with our ciders. And then dark chocolate cheese cake & salted caramel creme brulee for dessert. We rated 5-star based on value for money, good choice of music, great taste, clean and we love the rustic decor. We will be one of the regulars from now on.
S.
Service = 3/5; Taste = 4/5; Value for money = 3/5; Menu options = 5/5; Vibe = 4/5; Hubby rating = 3/5; Little Creatures is a local Hobsonville favourite just a ferry ride from the city. It’s located in a refurbished massive hanger, with indoor and outdoor seating. If you’re looking for a casual place to stop on a nice day for a beer and some nibbles, here’s your place...To read my full review, go to honestfoodiereview.com or @honest_foodie_nz
K.
First visit. Fantastic food, music and customer service. This will definitely not be our last visit. I cannot recommend it enough.
A.
Love the team at Little Creatures, and stoked they are offering some amazing takeaway and cook at home options during alert level restrictions. The Saturday Night Beef Cheek meal was so easy to prepare and was restaurant quality, would definitely recommend it!
M.
A hidden gem in the heart of Hobsonville!
I had visited the Little Creatures Brewery in Perth so it was nice to see their distinctive truck again 😊
We went there on a blustery winters day, but I can imagine the venue would be rocking in Summer - so much space! Loved the pumpkin & quinoa burger!!
A.
Man the beers at this place are good, and forget about the hot chips - incredible! Popped down here as a family on good Friday the place was rammed but the service dealt with the numbers very efficiently. Great kiddies play area to keep them amused whilst you have a few pints, nice. 😆 I've had these beers a few times whilst over in Oz - very flavoursome - glad they're now over here, I can even fill my flagon. Cheers! Highly recommended and an awesome new venue on hobby point. Five stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
K.
We had one of the at home meal packs and it was fantastic! Easy to prepare and a great way to have an amazing restaurant quality meal from the comfort of your own home. Will definitely be ordering from here again.
R.
Super friendly staff who didn't forget about us despite the place being rammed.
We had the cheese and garlic pizza plus the banoffee pie. Both delicious especially with one of the local tap beers. Well worth the visit!
p.
Booked a table for my birthday, excellent service with a smile and tasty hot food that came out quickly. A good selection of drinks and loved the vibe on Sunday with the dance music playing in the background. Kids had a great time in the play area.
R.
Great place to grab a beer on weekend afternoon. Huge space for seating and varieties beer selection. Love this place.
D.
Another amazing night, this place is awesome for summer nights. Again bread is the best i have tasted. The fish and chips, all you need for a fun night out with friends. 26/11/19
A great night out, staff were amazingly brilliant. Wine came along in minutes, huge menu to choose from. Grilled snapper was the best, but the garlic bread was the star of the night. Special place to catch up with friends.
C.
A perfect place to spend the afternoon—even if it’s a bit rainy. Our food came out quick and it was delicious. Definitely try the squid entree!
R.
Where to enter was a bit confusing - management should get a proper signage. Saw a few people wondering around, trying to find it.
Burgers looked very good, but were a bit dry and average.
A.
Both a destination or a perfect pit stop, this has something for everyone! Craft beer brewed on-site to go with their delicious menu, or take your pick from the multiple other food vendors onsite. A great place to finish our walk around Hobsonville point, I'd come again just to relax with a beer and good company!
R.
Great food, drinks and service. And so good to see them checking vaccine passports and actually checking ID to confirm they are valid.
J.
Excellent brew bar. Huge impressive interior, lots of outside dining too. Decent food, fast efficient and friendly service - not much wrong with it. Recommended
M.
Plenty of parking available as well as good seating available indoors and outdoors. You have three different places to choose from, kittyhawk is more intimate sit down restaurants, the other two are more gastro type of eateries. Table service for drinks and food or you can go up to the bar to grab a drink
T.
The staff were great, very friendly and helpful, but were under the pump as the place was so busy. Given two menus but went to order from one and advised a 30 min wait. Given it was a weekend, should have been better prepared. Triple cooked chips were great though, pizza was ok.
s.
thankful to the team for seamlessly scanning vax pax and attending to the tables - to keep us all safe. Fresh beer, great food, great vibe... ngā mihi nui
P.
The experience begins as you enter Little creatures. The atmosphere is warm, family friendly and full of people from young to old. I entered Little creatures with my family and found a table. Immediately, we had friendly staff come greet us and have conversation with us all.
We were able to order soon and the wait was not long. The food was presented and looked delicious - and we confirm that it was! The portion size was good, we were filled and then we decided on desert. I must say I am a desert queen, I love deserts and they did not disappoint me! The Creme Brule that I had was just absolutely divine! Everyone enjoyed their selections and overall our experience was fantastic. The staff were really friendly, courteous, helpful and so natural - felt comfortable being there!
Finally it was time to pay our bill. I was surprised at the total because it was worth it! For a party of six, having drinks, food and desert, it was absolutely worth it! I would recommend Little Creatures Brewing to everyone! Go try out the experience!
S.
Firm favourite in our family! Dog friendly outside and shaded, with a kids playground that kids can use when not at a COVID lockdown level.
L.
Beautifully thought out, lovingly packaged, generous portions complete with complementary condiments and delivered with a 😊 Really liked the instructions to make sure we got the best out of our meal. Ngā mihi🙏
A.
Beer battered fish and chips was lovely. We didn't have to wait till 11am when they started serving their lunch menu as well.
H.
Awesome service! Had such a lovely lunch . Food was top tier , the chilli squid was perfect . 10/10
N.
Lovely location and great atmosphere. Beers are great and lots of space for kids to play.
Was a bit disappointed with the food however. I tried the brisket and the ribs. The brisket was dry and definitely needed more sauce or jus. The ribs were good but again a bit dry.
There's a lot of options on the menu. I wonder if it would be better if there were fewer choices done really well.
Thanks for a great afternoon.
S.
Nice beer! Nice view!
J.
What a cool place. Plenty of seats and a real buzz. Staff are knowledgeable and helpful. There's a cool guy who makes cocktails in the Kitty hawk room, need to go back and try that out. Food is so delicious so is the wine. Didn't try the beers but I understand they are very good. Can't wait to go again.
R.
Great service, great beers and the food was great! You have to try the buffalo wings and squid, just awesome. Pizza came out in like 2 minutes, wow. Restaurant/bar setting. Nice ambience. This place packs up for sure. Brings Icandy out both ways...
H.
Have been to Little Creatures on many occasions, most recently for a group booking in the KittyHawk bar inside Little Creatures. Patrick & his team were so helpful from the organisation right up to on the day with the drinks, food & service! We had a really great time, great cocktails, great vibe and the staff were so attentive. Highly recommend!
J.
Nice food and atmosphere on a Monday lunchtime. Friendly staff and excellent service.
N.
Thanks Patrick and Trent, we had a fabulous night at Kitty Hawk for my birthday event. Suburb bar and cocktail service, thanks Trent, and delicious food. You made it easy for us, much appreciated, Natalie
R.
First time there and I was a little disappointed. The app to order was a good idea but when we ordered chips for the kids and a couple of little creatures beers ( i do like them ) the chips came first but not cooked too well. They were sorta rubbery. And the beers took their time . We also got a $38 platter and it was a bit underwhelming for the price ..on top of that they are doing some construction there and the view of a fence and rubbish truck collecting waste lunch time Saturday didn't help the experience.
K.
Awesome place & the staff are amazing, this place is awesome, great spot for family we will definitely be back
c.
Found the staff very helpful enjoyed the meal that we had was disappointed that the mussel dish was not available never mind may be next time
G.
Great beers, great service plus great ambience👌 Farewell Cloggy😥
K.
Been to this place twice niw in different traffic lights, Thoroughly enjoyed the service and the Chilli Squid is super Yummy...
M.
Our favourite brewery in Auckland. Great selection of beers on tap, yummy food. We tried pizza, squid and a their platter - everything is delicious. Friendly staff - thanks Patrick for looking after us!
Spacious, high chairs for babies available.
We'll certainly be back
R.
Nice beer, good food, awesome atmosphere
h.
Relaxed atmosphere, amazing beer and live music, what else could you ask for we will be back again
H.
Starting to become a regular here! The food is yummy and the service is great! Plus has such a cool atmosphere. Also they make the best cocktails ever! Highly recommend!
S.
Busy Sunday lunch here with good service and nifty order direct from the table app.
J.
Awesome atmosphere here and great energetic staff.
Great selection of alcohol including local beers and well made cocktails.
One suggestion would be for more wholesome bar type meals. The food ok offer is great but sometimes the “fancy and small portion” type deals.
A steak with mash or roast vegetables would be very welcome :)
V.
Good selection of quality beers, the southern style chicken burger was pretty good. Nice location with indoor and outdoor seating. Forty minute ferry trip from the city centre.
D.
Great place. Always a hassle for parking because they are so popular. Good background music. Food always well presented and very tasty. Today had to wait 15 minutes for my coffee. They must have forgot because when I asked they gave me someone else's coffee and it was warm, not hot. Breakfast pizza beautiful. But had to remind the guy we were waiting for it and it had been sitting there waiting awhile for it to be delivered to me.
S.
Great vibes. Food is delicious and so are the drinks. Free parking. Service could be better. Great live music on a sunday afternoon! Variety of food including fish, pizza and burgers
D.
We love Little Creatures Brewing. The food is consistently good. Great atmosphere and the staff are friendly and attentive. Good for large groups or families with kids
D.
great place to visit and enjoy a beer and some food. nice friendly staff
j.
Visited this place a few days before Christmas for a birthday party.
The staff were friendly and generally attentive. There were a couple times when we were ready to order and a waiter was nowhere to be found. However, that happened only once or twice.
We found the food pretty good. By no means amazing, but it’s a step above the typical pub food you find at most breweries.
The prices were a little dear, especially for any of the alcohol, but food prices were pretty much middle of the road.
We had the poutine, macaroni balls and the cheese bread for starters. Later we had the Philly cheesesteak, fish and chips, all American cheese burger cauliflower “wings” and the hot wings.
They also have a relatively impressive selection of vegan and vegetarian options, which is a nice change since one of our party was avoiding meat.
It is a little challenging to get to the place and parking can be a chore, but overall this place was a pleasant surprise.
A.
Huge spot in a nice location, great food, solid vegan options. Good for groups!
S.
Good vibe, nice beers and finger food. Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the desserts!
T.
The food is fantastic and the service excellent. friendly staff and nice surroundings.
M.
I've been here multiple times and every time the food and service has been really good! The venue has some really cool history and a nice view over the harbour. 🛫🍽
J.
Staff were very nice and attentive despite us sitting in the self service. Very dog friendly. Had the poutine which was lovely. Smokey mac n cheese was a bit of a let down. We had it previously and it was great but this time the smokey bordered into burnt flavour. Dogs didn't seem to mind. I also had the philly cheese steak- the meat was excellent. Nice and tender, although the sauce was a bit too much/wet without adding much in terms of flavour. We do like this place though, last time we had buffalo wings and the ribs and they were excellent.
S.
Enjoyed a nice dinner here. A good view of the hobsonville harbor. Prefect beer - taste good and stay long. Affordable meal - 1/2 pork rib. Pizza also looks good. Dessert was normal.
D.
Such a good place, but the parking lol. It's getting done though...yes. great pizza really enjoyed it and all the other food. Crart beer amazing and staff are awesome 👌👏😎
T.
Awesome place. Great indoor playground to keep kids busy while enjoying a craft beer and some food. Their chilli and lime squid starter is to die for, I get that every time. Pizzas are good too. Find them quite expensive though for what you get and quantities are quite small. Nice for an occasional visit.
C.
Ordered the At Home meal pack. In one word, YUM!
Or in two words… YUM YUM!!
Will definitely order again. 👍💕😝
A.
Great beer and amazing food.
R.
I'm never ever disappointed by this place. Their Gnocchi tonight was utterly perfect, I got a cocktail from kitty hawk too which was also absolutely perfect. Their creme brulee was superb. Definitely would recommend them. If I could give these guys 20/5 stars I would.
G.
The new water-side garden bar with live band is a ripper of a vibe!
L.
This is a great place to go for a family gathering (or any type of). I would give it a 5star except for the lack of parking and ambience outside.
The developers are killing Hobsonville Point's vibe with unnecessary building of apartment blocks on the waterfront. Such a shame.
S.
Nice burgers and takeaways beer during lockdown. Perfect.
L.
We came here for the first time today with family that live here. What a wonderful space! They have thought about everything, from families, big groups, small group, all ages etc. Even a little play area for the kids.
The food was awesome and the staff were SO friendly. The staff I have to say were the best part! Thank you for a lovely experience, can’t wait to come back. 5 stars from me 😊
A.
Came for lunch, and as soon as i walked through i could feel the welcoming environment. The QR code ordering was something new and fun to try. The food we ordered was delicious, but the kid's cheeseburger (only a bun, cheese, and patty) was bland and could've used some veggies. And our four sprites we ordered came as: two sprites and two sparkling waters.
M.
Decent food for lunchtime stop. Good selection on tap with pleasant spread of beers, very refreshing against other places with 5 different IPAs ;) or Tiger. Will certainly be back.
J.
Pets friendly, you can order by scanning their QR code if you wanted to sit outside. I would recommend their awesome Havana coffee and the tasting flight of little creature beer & cider. There is the Catalina Bay Sunday market nearby and a nice short walk.
C.
Top notch service! Food is awesome too. Love little creatures!
T.
Was great food cool as atmosphere, only downside is i paid $9 for a pint of the amber ale but also paid $9 for half a pint of the seasonal stout. Both beers were excellent but felt odd buying a half pint for the same price as a full pint
S.
Nice lunch today nice food and service with a smile from our waitress at our table no 42 ( sorry we didn't get the waitresses name ? ) , $11 for a glass of beer is overpriced but everywhere is the same
L.
Good vibe and drinks but the food was poor, burger and hoagie were super dry, needed more sauce and fresher/juicier filling. Good place to take kids for hot chips.
L.
Beautiful environment, friendly staff who are also very helpful and caring . Food was amazing and very unique. Great for family dinners or even parties. Will definitely come again.😊
L.
Compared to past experiences this unfortunately was sub standard this time. Service was ok, very impersonal. Robotic. One female host was pleasant. The food was way below average. The fat hot fries were greasy and overcooked. The squid was soft and tasted ok but no crispiness on the outside. A shame as has always been a firm fav.
D.
Live local and have been here so many times. I always struggle with the wait times of the serving staff. A bit too chill for my liking. Food goes between good enough to great standard. Great venue.
S.
What a great place to get some food and some delicious locally brewed beers ! Settle in we're going to be here for some time
J.
Pretty nice setup if you're thirsty or hungry. Lots of seats and tables playground for the kids. It's an easy place to relax and enjoy a meal.
F.
Pandemic rules applied with a gracious hostess, happy staff and tasty food.
J.
Nice place to have lunch and look at the view. Shame the apartments are going in next to it.
S.
Amazing place! Really enjoyed the vibe and the staff! Great food and especially great drinks.
S.
Lovely place to chillax over a beer & yummy food. Try the smoked beef brisket with potato galette.
C.
Great food and service but a little noisy, and no I'm not old, get the buffalo chicken even if you don't usually, you won't be disappointed.
T.
Great food and amazing beer. Unfortunately it is a very busy place and they don't take any bookings. We were lucky that we arrived early and had a table of 8. It makes an uncomfortable dining experience when other people are waiting for tables and launch for a free table when it becomes available, or tries to take a seat from the table if someone has temporarily left their seat. I feel it would be far more enjoyable, not necessarily to take bookings but to take names and numbers down when people arrive and call them to take the table when it becomes available.
J.
We ordered 2 of the pizzas, espresso coffees, chicken wings/nibbles and fries, lets just say we were not disappointed. We were served by Trent, who we shall say, provided great service and entertainment ! It was awesome how he knew what on top of his head on every order without a pad and a pen. We all highly recommend going to Little Creatures as an experience, food and a place thats great atmosphere. Would come back again ! The guy (Trent, deserves a pay rise! But if you cant do that, please do give him a big ups !!)
R.
Great food and drinks, very friendly staff.
E.
Excellent experience tonight with the grandkids. Kids fish & chips was perfect and the adults grilled kingfish with perfectly cooked vegetables exceeded expectations. Friendly and efficient service as well.
B.
Awesome place for a family get together. Beers great service great food was great apart from my fish. It tasted old and smelt worse even when market fish means fresh something was off. If the fish good it would have been 5 stars sorry. I will be back though as it is a great place.
l.
Amazing service an error was made with our order but when they realised they quickly corrected it and some . Shane who served us was fabulous and he alone would have been enough to get us to return but the food was also delicious. We have been here alot for lunch but this was our first time for dinner and dessert and they didn't disappointed.
Y.
Nice place for family to take children along as there is nice indoor playground. However, you can feel overcrowded due to it's popularity. Try to avoid time when it's high peak. Otherwise overall, nice food and nice beer !
N.
My friend, her son and I went for an early dinner today and have nothing but praise for you guys! You were so accomodating to us! We had our drinks and food brought to us within 15 minutes! Please support your local businesses during this time! You definitely won’t be disappointed with Little Creatures now or in the future! We’ll be back again for sure!!
G.
Make sure you are hungry. Really big portions, but good quality. Good selection of drinks too. Only reason doesn't get 5 stars is music is too loud making if hard to have a conversation especially if out with family..
A.
Always good, order from your table via a QR code makes it easy and convenient, be sure to try the squid.
J.
Good food and staff. More hazy beer please :)
P.
Exciting family setting, very friendly and attentive staff, a very good selection of beers and food. A very good playground for children. I was very impressed
A.
Friendly place, good vibes and a very tasty burger with crunchy fries. I'm a happy chap! 😁
D.
I like this place a very much. The food? It is delicious. The beer? Is a even better. Look for a place to go and eat and to drink? Why not a do this place.
S.
Awesome family restaurant! Fabulous service...playground great for dad's watching kids and having a beer...food pretty good too!
T.
Hmm..Where shall I start ?
Ok Peeps. if you are looking for awesome food, great vibes and a reason to grow you pot bellies (pun intended) look no further. By far one of the best food getaways.
Take your kids along as my baby had plenty of engagement with the kids corner and me and my hubby were satiating our tastebuds.
B.
We had a very pleasant lunch, were attended to by great service, and thoroughly enjoyed the food. Loved the friendly atmosphere and being able go for a walk along the waterfront afterwards made for a splendid time.
P.
I found the overall experience of this place could be higher by things that could easily be solved, il start by the positives
1. kids food was amazing portion size very good and a great kids play area
2. We ordered poutine and wings the food was on point and presented as good as it tasted 5*
3. Stunning location and a great vibe music was great !!
Unfortunately i found the staff and service very average took 25 mins fir a waiter to literally drop a bottle of water in front of us then after asking another 20 mins for a waitress to come take the order.
Despite the food for adults tasting amazing the prices are personally a little high 18$ for five nibbles (not wings as described) felt a little ripped off.
Overall would go back the place is great for family's
o.
Great eateries and drinks. Easy chilled out environment. Lots of choice, nice views down the harbour. Outdoor seating on warm days. Good sharing menus. Clean and tidy. Great place for a casual walk afterwards too.
S.
the food was meh it was meh but id go again.
K.
Good food, reasonable prices and staff attentive. I will definitly go back
L.
Great layout and plenty of room. We had 9 adults and 4 kids, everyone was pleased with their meals. Bar staff hilarious 😉
R.
Wonderful place. Was very crowded when we went. Had a few minor issues with our orders because we were a large group, but the staff went out of their way to make sure everything was sorted and everyone was happy. The food was excellent.
M.
What a nice ambiance! We ordered 2 vegetarian pizza, they were delicious. Beers are really good. Staff was so friendly. Will definitely visit again.
A.
Awesome venue, something for everyone. Delicious pale ale. Best of all is the mobile ordering service, quick and easy!!!
M.
Amazing food and service! Staff was cheerful and super friendly yet bot intrusive, the lads did an amazing job considering the amount of people, stella service!
Food was fulling prepared and plated perfectly. They serve meals as prepared but it makes the salads nice and fresh :)
Parking is a bit of a gamble but worth driving around abit for a spot. Stunning views aswell. Very highly recommend.
A.
Heman as a barmen is great. Fantastic knowledge of the menu, a pleasure to have as a host. Very knowledgeable about his cocktails as well.
R.
Venue 8/10
Ambience 9/10
Service 7/10 - drops 2/10 because 2 meals did not arrive!
Food 7/10 - drops 1/10 because 1 meal was not hot
Hopefully, this was an aberration.
J.
Enjoyed a tasting paddle of craft beers and some burgers. The seasonal beers were all great especially the propellorhead and spiced brown ale
I.
Staff are super friendly. Coffee was good. Staff are great with dogs too, even brought out a wee dog bowl for our little girl. Thank you! We will be back
D.
Awesome vibe.. really busy, only downfall- ordered a pizza which never came, not enough wait staff?? No one checking if all okay.
Great food otherwise.
M.
The pizzas are delicious. Seating inside and out, low and tall tables. The look and feel is very different. Can be packed, but food came out fast. Parking can be a bit difficult to find as the result of construction. A little walking is needed
G.
A bit chaotic. No one greets you; come over to the bar, but oops... you need to have a table number to be served food. Go find one and come back.
Beer is average.
$38 for a measly shared platter that has 2 pieces of ham on it 🤷🏽♂️
You pay for the vibe.
T.
Our go to for a refreshing pint, woodfired pizza and taco. Small kids play area is great to keep the littlies occupied. The prices are on the higher side but the experience is unlike others on Auckland. Well worth it!
T.
First time ive been and im very happy with the outcome of the food. I ordered the beef burger and turned out incredible also tried some of the deserts and my goodness they were 10/10. Overall awesome place really big i would recommend great for groups. And i would be happy to come back and try more tasty food. A++
N.
Great service, good food with super seedy delivery! The music is too loud when you're trying to talk to friends at the dinner table! But otherwise a great place to be!
N.
Great place to come for drinks with a group of friends. I ordered the cheeseburger, overall it tasted good however I found the beef patty dry.
S.
Amazing atmosphere, great music, incredible food and delicious drinks made all the more enjoyable by the incredible customer service from Trent and the team who gave great food and drink suggestions. Highly recommend!
T.
Food was super quick n tasty ..
Serve again..super quick n friendly..
Think we have found our new spot for summer!!
S.
Good food and friendly service. The kids area could use some newer toys and maybe a slide on the cool club house. I always walk away full.
D.
We had such a yummy lunch. Chorizo and jalapeno pizza with glass of cider!!! And delicious dark chocolate fondant desert to wrap my Queen's birthday meal
E.
First time visiting the market around Hobsonville wharf.
We spotted a couple of juicy burger coming out from little creatures kitchen and decided to give it a try.
The beef burger patty was on spot, you could see a nice inner pink layer after your first bite. Really enjoyed the flavor balance that came from the gherkin piece on the burger. Buns were a little dry in my opinion as they were crumbling apart as I bit them, for this reason I won’t give it a 5 star.
Friendly staff keen to help you in anything that may be needed.
K.
Amazing staff. All very friendly and welcoming
L.
Good beer and food
They don't serve the outside tables anymore you have to go inside and get it yourself or can order via app to your table.
E.
Food was good. We had a small problem with one of our dishes and we sent it back but then we were given another dish free of charge and a complementary free dish of our choice. Overall very great customer service
S.
It's a popular spot at Catalina Bay. Family friendly. Have a separate indoor playground for kids. There are 3 kitchens at Creatures. Get a table in the main dining area if you want craft beer, pizza or fish & chips. Otherwise go to Kittyhawk if you want cocktails or coffee.
B.
Local brewery with yummy food and great beer at reasonable prices. Magic in summer and cosy in winter. Staff always so friendly. Dogs welcome in outside areas.
N.
Great place for nice food and a cold beer.
S.
Delicious food, friendly service, can't wait to go back again! Would definitely recommend to others :)
A.
This is our local brewery... Best place in West Auckland to grab a beer n some food with mates and whanau. A family n kid friendly eatery/ restaurant/ cocktail bar with the best seaside location and the awesomest staff 👏
C.
This space definately has an amazing feel and vibe . The staff that were on when a few friends and I visited topped off the experience . So friendly & chill . We ended up talking to the manager on duty(we didn’t know at the time) , sarah who was lovely and took on feedback, and made the experience better .
We’ve all said we would come back here & it would be an amazing place for dinining , a day drink & nice casual events
s.
Awesome place. Love the vibe. Great place to just chill. Beers are excellent and food great too. Very child friendly and good service.
A.
Nice spot and vibe on a sunny day for a drink, not much variety in the way of food.. pizzas lack variety and over priced, Caesar salad and chips were nice but quite expensive for lunch
B.
Decent beer. Food was average and a bit pricey fir what it was. Could do with more seating out the water side.
D.
Great food, fast friendly service and we love the atmosphere. Kids love it too with an amazing playground they keep busy in there!
T.
Variety of beer. The NEIPA was very good. Fried chicken burger and squid were great as well wide open space and friendly service.
S.
Great food and atmosphere. Liked the music too. Would recommend. we went there combined with doing the Costal Walk.
S.
Good place - need to learn to serve O% beer as not on the menu.
N.
Brilliant venue, service is outstanding, food is accessible, tasty and well presented and drinks range is phenomenal
K.
Great place with good selection of beers. Unfortunatly both selection of food and beers I chose were unavailable (so why have on board !) and food overall very average.
J.
Place was busy. Food was just ok but a little overpriced. They should say they are children friendly as there were a lot of noisy children there
B.
Only the second time I've come here. Great food and service both times. Becoming my go to place whenever I'm visiting Hobsonville Point.
A.
My daughter and I visited last Sunday. We were very impressed with the friendly staff who gave great service.
The beers and pizza were great as well.
Would definitely go back
J.
Enjoyed a lovely lunch at KittyHawk. Generous serving, friendly staff. Will definately visit again!
E.
Delicious food, great fast service, cool design inside, great place for all ages, friendly, helpful workers. For sure 5 stars :)
G.
Excellent spot for a weekend visit particularly in the warmer months. It has really added another dimension to the market area.
Make the most of the new coastal walk and check out all of the new builds in Hobsonville.
c.

Don't bother going if you got kids. Playground is out of action with little else to do and staff use the disabled toilets for 20 minutes so you can't use the changing tables
