Hone’s Garden

This summer hot spot on Russell’s York St was founded by Nicholas Loosley, the brains behind Auckland food waste charity, Everybody Eats.

The laid-back garden bar is a popular spot to unwind over craft beer and wood-fired pizza after a day of adventuring in and around the region’s tepid waters. Start with O¯ rongo Bay oysters by the dozen, followed by slices of parma ham and buffalo mozzarella pizza, then finish with profiteroles smothered in chocolate and cream. Visit hones.co.nz.
