Nice place for Brunch on weekend!!
Located in the buoyant Ponsonby Central, if you drop in at the right time of day you'll find yourself engulfed in the aroma of every type of food you can imagine, coming here is like walking through heaven's gates for me. I'd had coffee & various slices here before but never sat down to consume a proper meal until now. The "Bird On A Waffle" was bloody delicious - every element of the dish was bang on and for what it's worth, I'd almost call it a steal. Would I get it again? Yes....Yes I would. 4☆
The chicken from this place was so good that I didn't put myself to taking a photo.
Staff were friendly too :) would love to return to try more food.
Nice to come here with a group of people or after work. The chicken is cooked fresh. Great variety of food including burgers and vegetarian options. My only concern is that the salads are always loaded with carbs. What's the point of having the healthy option if it isn't that healthy.
Had a nice experience here for dinner. It’s nice and cheap for the quality and amount of food you get. Got the fried chicken burger and it was good porn when squashed cause the egg yolk dribbled down. Great fries too. Staff were friendly however it did take about 30min before someone came over to take our order
Order this on Uber eats all the time. Been in store many times too. They definitely know how to make chicken tasty. Their salads are amazing too.
The chicken was cooked beautifully and the salad was delicious 😋
Highly recommended and definitely will be returning to try out other items on the menu.

I've been to the other two branches so I already knew what to expect for food and was delicious as usual.
Food - I ordered the Medium Salad with Chicken.
Highly recommend the beetroot and carrot salad which has a maple vinaigrette & cabbage ponzu salad! They both use lighter dressings compared to the other ones so you don't feel heavy afterwards. The chicken was spot on, perfectly cooked and no dry pieces.
My friend got the $18 meal that comes with 1/4chicken, medium salad & baguette. Only critique is that the orzo pasta salad she had was bland.
Service - As soon as we sat down the waiter brought over some water for the table and removed plates when finished. Overall friendly and attentive :)

Just love Bird on Wire, everything is just so great. We usually buy the family feed set meal. Whole juicy succulent chicken with healthy and tasty salads, bread rolls and potatoes. Plenty for a family of four and leftovers the next day. Wish they do bigger gravy size!!
Super friendly staff, great ambiance, very trendy and the food was delightful. The costs were very affordable for the amount of food you get. I would recommend this place again
Portion is bigger than expected , food is nice. Many birds flying around (beware) 🥰 staff is friendly, thank you for the food and recommended for those who come to Posonby 👍🏼🥰
Korean chicken with slaw and chips (26) and Sprite (5). Overall food was fine. Chicken inside was a bit dry but the sauce made it. Chips were cooked well. Slaw was amazing. Good portion size for price. The only reason why it’s not 5 stars is because of the sprite. You get it in a glass and I believe is from the tap which makes it taste flat and watered down. Good service though wait time was around 30-40 minutes long on a Thursday lunch.
We were served by Cande. She was very welcoming and kind while our meals were going. Their foods and services were all good and my children especially enjoyed their meals. We will come back there again. Thank you!
Wow! the food is to die for. They also supply vegetarian options tòo. The customer service is also very good. Thanks team @bird on a wire
The cauliflower dish was great and I’m very happy that the vegan dishes were labeled correctly. Serving size average. Flavour good. Priced $$.
They ran out of tofu and vegan buns so I had to change my order but the chef was super nice about it and gave us complementary fries. Can’t complain that it came with mayo on the side though. Overall good experience.
I come here quite often for their roasted chicken; although they have other items on the menu, their roast chicken is as good as it gets. However this time, I came to try their Buffalo Chicken Burger with Blue Cheese Mayo.
The chicken is fried with a spicy buffalo sauce and mayo. The chips are nice and fresh. As an Asian who loves his food spicy, i thought it was a tad too spicy. But otherwise, one of the best chicken burgers around although the price is a bit high for it.

I love Bird on a Wire – everything about it. Well partly because for a non-pig eater it is sometimes difficult to find the variety of food I can get from here. When I asked for a Pate – it is often mixed with pork; and many places do not have an alternative for non-pork eaters.
The only two Bird on a Wire I have been are the Ponsonby Central and Orakei Market ones. I first came about the Ponsonby Central ones and have always loved the space. It is an open space with comfortable chairs and free Wi-Fi. A fantastic place to meet and greet other people.
Everyone must order the rotisserie, no questions asked. The staple of the restaurant, the thing you must order, either with salads or on its own. One day, I must order one just for a takeout.
That is not to say the rest are not interesting. The sandwiches and burgers are just as good. They are refreshing alternative to a roast chicken dinner.
If you wonder how many ways they can cook chicken – Bird on a Wire has the perfect example!

There's something about a good roast chicken - there's always a place for it with me... Just hits the spot! We tried the for one meal and the chicken sandwich - I think the for one meal is the iconic meal while the sandwich, good, is messy to eat. The pie was also delectable!
Had the OG Fried Chicken and a Strawberry Smoothie. The OG fried chicken had a decent serving size and was pretty tasty, but it would have nice to have a bit more sauce as it can get a bit dry without it. The Strawberry Smoothie was okay but quite watery for my liking.
Great spot in Ponsonby Central. Delicious brunch. The chicken and waffles was delicious, coffee was incredible and the BLT burger special was also a major hit! Great service and great food! 👍🏼😋
