Booked online for our table, very good communication from the venue towards the event. Walked into the venue and it was beautifully set up for us next to the fireplace, nice decor and great vibe. The staff was too lovely and I was able to add my own decorations to the table ie; balloons and twinkle lights and we were able to bring our birthday cake onsite. Everything was brilliant, cosy and well looked after by the staff. The food was a smash from the platters to ordering our own mains. I would definitely celebrate at the birdcage again or just come in and taste the other food on the menus. They even cut our cakes up into pieces which was unexpected, as some places they don’t bother doing it. Thank you for the great atmosphere, vibe and the staff.
Blue cheese pizza is super!! The daily deals are definitely worth going for, as well as happy hour drinks! Food is good and varied. Veggie options - burger and pizza are both yummy! Great for sporting events - worth booking a table!
Goodluck Birdcage cause you gonna be our (work) local bar.
Excellent service, staff were super friendly and catered well to a large group.
Food came out on time despite being quite busy and it's great for hot auckland summer day!
$1 wings with a drink is honestly a great deal since the wings itself were phenomenal and decent sized as well. Most places have the $1 wing deals but the wings are usually tiny. But birdcage doesnt hold out!!
The kronenbourg beer is highly recommended.
No doubt will come here again!!
Great service! Waiter had advised us to order before everyone else to get ahead of the line. Glad we did!

Went here for farewell lunch for one of my colleagues, nice food and great place. They also have different promotion for different days in a week.
lunch chicken wings special. Nice wings. love them. definitely visit again. I also had the beef burger in another visit. really nice burger!
Amazing interior with friendly staff who are prompt with service. We went as a group and was served delicious dumplings and beef sliders - both were really good!
Stayed in Auckland for a couple of protracted periods during a 3 month stay in NZ last winter and the Birdcage Tavern was my go-to place for good value, great tasting food, a selection of craft ales, friendly, efficient staff and a lovely outdoor eating area. I plan to visit again this UK winter and will certainly be enjoying good food, drink and company at the Birdcage again!
I visited this restaurant for a late lunch and beers with the boys. Straight away we were seated and first cold ones served. The British dude behind the bar clearly has a passion for crafties, as he directed us to some delicious new brews for us to try. The food came out shortly after ordering and we loved it all. If I could give it more stars I would. 11/10 will be back !
The venue is very nice, the drinks were decently sized and very yummy. The staff were very polite and prompt with our service. Loved the fries and my nachos were nice. 7/10 for the nachos as they were a bit too crispy and rather hard and not enough beans for dipping. Drinks 8.5/10, Fries 9/10. Overall, my vegetarian meal was very pleasant.
Always great vibes inside and out in the courtyard on a sunny afternoon, and this week they have a collab with @GarageProject to raise funds for @EverybodyEats from sales of Good Shout beer. Good one!

Massive shout out to Phil and the Birdcage Tavern staff, our son had his 21st Birthday on 26/05/2023 Friday, wow what a night, The Birdcage Tavern made everything flow perfectly and the food was absolutely 💯, top recommendations to this establishment. Nga Mihi Kia koutou 🥳🎶.
After doing two 21st birthdays myself we decided to book a venue for the last 21st - Phil and his team at the Birdcage made the whole process so easy. The venue is excellent and the food and the service was great. We put up a few of our own personal decorations but it is already well decorated. We had so many lovely comments from our guests about the venue and the night that we easily give the Birdcage and its Team a 10/10
We had our wedding reception at the birdcage tavern! And it was so perfect for us! The service was amazing and super helpful! They had decor that went well with our theme already! Everyone raved of their food! Cannot recommend enough!
I had my wedding Reception at The Birdcage Tavern, was amazing. The best communication leading up to the event and outstanding service. The food was delicious and catered for all types of requirements that I had asked for. The staff and owner felt like part of my family highly recommend any type of event or going for a meal 😁
The restaurant was perfect for our social gathering! The staff were very attentive, had everything planned out for our large group, and the food came out super quickly. I"ll make sure to book with them again when we have large groups to accommodate for.
We had an amazing time at the Birdcage Tavern where we held our daughters 21st. Phil was the most attentive host and kept us informed throughout the night regarding the bar tab, food, cake etc. It was so easy for us to organize and on the night the staff were awesome. Highly recommend booking your private functions here. The carpark is also a huge bonus, one you won't find anywhere else in Auckland Central! Guests also raved about the food served and the timing of when they arrived were perfect. Thanks again to the team at The Birdcage tavern
What a fantastic night, I am so grateful to the team at the Birdcage! The food was great, the service was phenomenal everyone had a fantastic night. The whole process from going to view the space to booking in my event was so smooth and the communication around the event was top notch. Great value for money for the food, my guests were raving about the quality. Being able to have our own playlist playing and the bonus of the video screens for a few funny photos was a real bonus and helped personalise the space for our night. It was above and beyond my expectations, thank you so much. Will definitely be recommending to others.
Their daily specials are of great value, especially Thursday (burger) and Friday (fish n chips) specials, $24 + a beer/wine.
I love how they have a panfried option for the fish and chips as well.
There are tables to accommodate for large groups as well, both inside and outside are a vibe.
Service is welcoming and attentive, the place feels well organized!
