Reviews of Alpha Street Kitchen & Bar
L.
Great food and excellent service. Oysters were great as was prosecco. Not the cheapest meal and portion sizes for the mains were a bit on the light side. Disappointed that the hollandaise with the fish wasn't homemade.
B.
Nice atmosphere. Well set out areas to relax and enjoy the time. Friendly staff. Probably pay to book ahead if you want a meal. We only had drinks which they were able to seat us for
G.
Great meal.Lovely decor and good service.
J.
Great bistro, we were dead keen on a steak and Alpha street delivered. Amazing steak sauce and butter! Even finished my greens
S.
Exactly as it states on their website - Delicious with just a little fuss. Tasty, fresh food, beautifully presented with great, friendly professional service. Prosecco was yum. Enjoyed sitting outside as the sun set, magical.
M.
It's ok. The food is tasty, though the portions are too small for such a high price. The staff was friendly, but the service was slow enough despite there were almost no people. The food arrived very quickly.
G.
Spent valentines day dinner at Alpha Street Kitchen, the decor, food and service were amazing, without fault. Very excited to come back and enjoy the cozy atmosphere and yummy cocktails. Thanks Team!
C.
Lovely meal here with friends i hadn't seen for 6 months. We all enjoyed our meals. Ribeye, pork belly, snapper, sticky date pudding & lemon brulee - all were tasty& service was excellent too
F.
Lovely central location however the facade needs some attention. The vanity bench within the toilets has moisturizers; a rarity in most restaurants. Great location; lovely food; friendly staff.
G.
Superb service, lovely atmosphere and stunning food. Couldn't ask for more.
L.
Had an amazing dinner at Alpha. Tasty food and beautiful environment! Good service and nice cocktails! Will coming back again for sure.
C.
Amazing food. Fantastic service. This is our second visit here now and we will definitely be back, a beautiful restaurant for any special occasion
L.
Excellent food, great atmosphere and friendly service - what more can you ask for?! Highly recommended!
O.
Very delicious, friendly service. The lamb was outstanding soft! Also the starter very tasty. Good variety of drinks, spirits and wine.
T.
Lovely fried chicken! Lovely stella. Lovely staff and lovely company. Literally the best spot for a sunny arvo. Loof foward to next Friday.
T.
Lovely old pub that that has been restored. Whether you just want to relax with a drink by the fire or go for dinner this has to be the best place in the lovely town of Cambridge.
Amazing selection of wine hand beer to accompany any meal.
The fresh oysters with the vinegarette really are something special. The steak with the cow tongue croquette is out of this world.
C.
Fabulous service and scrumptious food presented well. We had the Mothers' Day set menu and everyone enjoyed their meals.
M.
We were visiting the area from NYC and visited this restaurant on a recommendation from our B&B. I am so glad we came in; the food was honestly some of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. We had the tempura oysters, the fish of the day, and some chocolate dessert I can only describe as stunning. Everything from the service, presentation, and taste blew us away. I wish I stayed in the Cambridge area longer to dine here again!!
Y.
Food is nice. Recommend the oyster (try the natural flavor). My friend who doesnt quite like seafood enjoyed it.
É.
We had the plesure to had our Valentine day dinner here. All the courses were excellent, our favourite was the lamb, must try. I never thought to find such a lovely place here, everything was great and the athmosphere of the restaurant is relaxing. They even got us a surprice hearth shaped chocolate at the end, very thoughtful. Definetely should visit if you are nearby.
S.
Had high expectation coming here. Great looking menu but all the dishes just missed one extra dimension. For example, the raw kingfish dish was missing a touch of acid. Also, the glass by the wine was very pricey. The wine glass was only 20% filled. A big plus was the friendly and helpful staff. Has the potential to be 5 stars.
G.
Never fails to impress, the food cooked to perfection, the staff are wonderful, the best bar and restaurant in Cambridge.
M.
Enjoyed a very nice meal in a pleasant setting. Great service.
C.
Very good food, beautiful presentation, nice atmosphere, wee bit cold by the windows on a winter's evening! Friendly helpful staff.
A.
Not only have I eaten here the past two Tuesdays with my friends and loved the meals provided. I also had the honor of working here as a waitress. I had heard so many wonderful comments on how the food was that I had to try it myself and managed to bring my friends along with me as well. It is definitely a place I would eat at when I get the chance, it has lovely service and the cooks are prideful in their work more often than not asking what the comments were from customers and trying to get any feedback they could. It has definitely improved a lot from my personal experience and from what I've been told from the regular clients that we saw often.
S.
Excellent food and service. Recommend to everyone.
A.
Cosy environment and warm service. The oysters were really good!
M.
High price and good presentation but many aspects of the dishes didnt meet the mark. Very loud inside the restaurant, barely able to have a conversation without shouting at each other.
T.
Truly amazing!!! It would be the last place I think you'd find here. If it was in Auckland you'd have to book weeks ahead to get a table.
D.
Food was nice, setting beautiful in middle of Cambridge. Service was ok. Our table was too close to the next one, so when waiter bent over to serve other table you get their backside close to your face.
G.
Amazing food and nice service! I've tried the smoked potato ravioli — absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this place.
A.
The most amazing staff, food and atmosphere everything was so beautifully presented that it was a crime to eat but we did and every bite was so amazing. The staff were attentive and very engaging we could not recommend higher. Thank you so much for a great experience.
J.
Nice setting, good service, very good food
a.
Wow oh wow amazing food top service. We have been to a lot of local restaurants but this place is well worth it. We will definitely be back
J.
Such a great meal, and fantastic service. 👌
K.
Beautiful seasonal food presented with care and respect for the ingredients. A comprehensive drinks list including lots of interesting NZ beers and wines. We had a lovely time there and were well looked after. Highly recommended.
M.
Very pleased with my meal and dessert.
G.
We stumbled across this place with the intention of just having a drink as it looked nice.
We looked at the food menu which appealed to us so decided to stay for food as well.
Wow, we were not disappointed, it was absolutely delicious and extremely well presented and surely worthy of a Michelin star.
The service was very efficient and friendly.
So if you're passing through Cambridge do call in, you won't be disappointed.
K.
Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Great oysters, but small mains. Definitely needed sides for dinner.
Recently I have enjoyed sharing items from the small plates menu for lunch with friends &/or family.
The experience on each lunchtime visit was fantastic and therefore I must improve my rating to a strong 5 ⭐
S.
This awesome local restaurant. You can see why it gets so many awards. With its impeccable food, friendly, knowledgeable staff in a beautiful older building. This Jim is well worth a visit. I went here with my wife for a lovely evening out. The food was to die for. As was the wine. I will defiantly go back and recommend to others. Awesome for a date night.
S.
Very enjoyable night out for dinner with friends. Some of the best service I've had in a long time, loved the Savvy Gin pre dinner drink. Tuna main was cooked beautifully. Definitely recommend
J.
Fantastic food and great location.service was good .meals were well priced
will be back again when in Cambridge next
P.
Thank you Seb and team for a wonderful dining experience. Every course was excellent and the Vinny Gin cocktail was mind blowing. It's good to know that Cambridge can boast this level of taste, service and ambiance.
C.
We had a lovely meal last saturday night. Food to very high standard and so too the service including a nice touch with dessert for our birthday girl friend👍
R.
Very good service that was attentive, but not intrusive. The food was amazing. Whole new experience for the tastebuds that raises the bar for what we now expect from dinner out. Lamb was cooked perfectly and melted away. Deserts were very good with wonderful balance of sweetness and textures. We will be back for more on our next visit to Cambridge!!! Thank you.
V.
Great cosy restaurant. On request they catered for dietary requirements. Recommend.
M.
Had natural oyster dish, duck breast, pressed carrot terrine...all fantastic dishes with great service!
S.
Wow sensational lunch with friends early June. Lovely friendly service and amazing food. Melt in the mouth beef rib and heavenly potatoes with truffle sour cream. Highly recommended
G.
Lovely place. Excellent guy behind the bar. Huge selection of craft beers so I tried one from Napier with some beer fries. Gotta say they get chops for presentation
Flashiest aoli fries I've had.
D.
Lovely friendly helpful staff, awesome meal, fun experience today celebrating a birthday. Well done team Alpha Street Kitchen & Bar. You made our day!
M.
Picked from the choices along the street, and while the menu is not very long, managed to find two plates we could try together. That was the best piece of lamb I've ever had, and the pork came close. The details of each dish were not ignored either - the flavours in and of everything were selected and prepared precisely to leave us thinking through them. I'd expect more meal for less money at most restaurants, and we considered leaving before the temptation of a dessert menu was put down. It would have been the wrong decision by far; the rum creme brulee is the most artistic dessert to grace my plate and didn't trade off on taste either. Worth the price paid - I look forward to the next visit.
P.
Awesome food very well presented and quick polite service! Would have to say it's the best place in town!
G.
Went for a date with my wife. Service was great and the ambience. I always feel they try too hard with the food. Beef was a bit tough, starter a bit salty. Dessert was delicious.
C.
Happened upon Alpha St Kitchen last night with friends and what a find! Dining with a group can be daunting, but this team made it a delight. From the welcoming, friendly and accommodating service, perfect ambience, to the exceptional food (not one dish could be faulted!), your team did a brilliant job of impressing even our pickiest of friends.
At the table we were already planning our next dinner there...five stars all round.
L.
Smoked potato ravioli is delicious. Will try the deep fried oysters next time. Awesome service. Thank you.
M.
Fabulous food and great service. The smoked potato ravioli is amazing so were the tempura oysters. Thank you we will return.
J.
Well priced, good service and elegant surroundings. Food excellent. Pleasant atmosphere.
A.
The BEST afternoon!
We spent the afternoon here in the sun on the deck, the service was wonderful, friendly and easy going, the food was amazing, the music was great, the wine list delicious. We've found our new year round watering hole. see you soon!
R.
What an amazing restaurant!
The food is DELICIOUS!
Had the Lamb with Asparagus and a Chorizo roulade - just jummy.
I love the beer-battered fries (pretty sure i ve not eaten any better yet) and the duck prosciutto <3
The staff are very nice and you can see and taste, that the chef loves his job.
I come back to Cambridge in january and i am pretty sure, that i will eat there again.
T.
Had a fabulous lunch here. Lovely, attentive staff. Prompt service. Light and airy restaurant with outdoor areas to eat or drink. Highly recommend.
R.
Not the cheapest place in town but the quality and presentation of the food was excellent. Service was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Overall, thoroughly recommended.
J.
Always delicious food, beautifully presented and great staff. Highly recommend! 😊
J.
Awesome! Service, location and execution. Amazing. Blew everyone’s mind - 4 adults and a 18m old and they where great! I would come from Auckland for this! Love the pancakes, snapper and banana spring rolls!
G.
A semi-hidden gem where you'd least expect to find it - in the old (well refurbished) dining room of an old hotel!
It's nothing like an old dining room, and is now a comfortable pleasant place to enjoy top-class food.
Seriously, we were all blown away by the standard of food, presentation and service.
B.
Excellent service. Great food. Good pricing.
b.
Best presented food in Cambridge, tastes good too, an excellent selection of very good wines and though the staff are there they may need a little more training in getting to know their customers where as the proprietors have a passion for what they do, and it shows. Always a good dining experience.
M.
Great flavours of food
The venison with truffled mashed potatoes was to die for.
D.
In the top 100 restaurants in NZ (Cuisine mag) and the chef is a NZ Beef & Lamb Ambassador
s.

Best restaurant in Cambridge, if not the Waikato! Food is super delicious and staff are wonderful. The smoked ravioli is always a must, along with some oysters...
J.
Ideal place to wind down after a days hard yakka.
Good service good people and great food
S.
Based in the beautiful historic National Hotel building in the heart of Cambridge shopping Centre which has been sympathetically renovated. Alpha Street Kitchen has been through a few different names and owners, but the current owners are probably doing it the best. Relatively high end quisine that is done well and changes periodically. Recently I had the Half Duck meal which was duck cooked three different ways. Perfectly cooked duck breast with delicious sauces. Their signature dish is the chocolate dome covered brownie, or currently ginger bread dessert. I can happily recommend alpha street kitchen, and am sure you will have an enjoyable experience although you will pay for it.
S.
Great service and the food was beautifully presented and an absolute pleasure to eat. I will definitely recommend and will be returning very soon
S.

Have rib eye with extra crispy wedges which was absolutely delicious. My wife had the crispy chicken burger and the chicken was super crispy on the outside, juicy tender on the inside. Looked like everything was recently renovated, beautiful decor and service was excellent!

(Translated) Beef and fish are delicious, sauces and side dishes are also very good, very good taste, I have eaten all.
You can also eat oysters.
The decoration is comfortable and the toilet is very clean.
