Review Franklins Bar And Eatery. Pukekohe - Pukekohe

Came here for dinner. Really nice place. They were quite busy and we didn't have reservations so didn't get a seat in the nicer area but the atmosphere here we were seated close to the bar was still really good Staff was super friendly and helpful The food was quite good. Not blown away by anything but everything was on point including the deserts. Bathrooms were not the cleanest but then again it was later in the evening and sadly as we know most peeps can't clean up after them self so probably not the fault of the place Parking is a little bit of a pain. There are some 60min parking around and a hand full of 120min. My first day in Pukekohe so perhaps there is parking somewhere the locals know about that I just didn't see

Very lovely atmosphere with plenty of seating. We went at an awkward time so there were heaps of tables around. Staff were friendly. Food was good but nothing really blew my mind. We ordered the wagyu beef ricotta balls, duck pate and the Mac attack pizza. Duck pate had a nice pairing with wine jam on top, not too strong and the flavours compliment each other. The pizza was true to its name, tasted like a Big Mac but on pizza. The crust was crispy but not burnt, which I really appreciate, and the centre had the right amount of fluffiness. The highlight was the wagyu risotto balls. Very light and crispy on the outside with creamy risotto and wagyu mince inside. There were five on the plate, which we thought was an awkward number for a sharing dish. It was a bit pricey, and for the wagyu being in mince form, I can't really tell if it was actually wagyu beef or not. But overall enjoyable experience.

Yummy passionfruit martini to start. Wish I took a photo of the risotto, it was so good! The chicken burger was cooked beautifully but a few more chips would have been nice. For dessert we both had sticky date pudding. It was nice but a runny butterscotch sauce was missing. All other components were lovely, but it could have been perfect. The service was good, attentive but not rushed. Will come again, I'll have to try the chocolate mud cake next time.

The chicken burger was good however I feel the buffalo sauce let it down quite a bit (or might not be my taste).

Food was freaking fantastic the service was top notch fast and friendly the staff were amazing 100% go there for the chicken burger it's was so juicy and tender 😋🤤🤤 and the pizza was to perfect (big mac pizza) thanks guys will definitely be back again

Everything was cooked nicely, the sirloin was so good! That virgin Passion fruit martini was gorge 💛💛 Overall I'm happy with the meal and how I was served ☺️ Nothing exceptionally mind-blowing, especially for the prices, you could probably find those prices at a fine dining restaurant in Auckland CBD, however it was true blue, fresh, made with wonderful local produce.

I underestimated this place and was wowed by how great the really food is here. Beef cheek cooked to perfection and was delicious. Chicken wings were delicious and great portion size for two people. Chocolate lava cake with ice cream was delicious. and food came out within 10mins of ordering!! AMAZING Presentation = STUNNING WOW JUST WOW, definitely top 3 restaurant in Pukekohe

Friendly staff and good drinks range, however very little to chose from mains wise so just ordered some smaller plates and was not disappointed. Needs a few more salad options or staple options such as beef burgers or all day breakfast options

Great atmosphere, beautiful food with good gluten free options. Affordable. Staff were really lovely.

Booked a table for the ladies lunch on Saturday and we had such a great afternoon! Food, drinks, service and atmosphere was all exceptional, we’d definitely go to any future ones!

We sat down for lunch and ordered three dishes to share. The lamb was tender and tasted amazing, the chicken wings were some of the best I've ever had, and the vegetables were perfectly cooked and tasty. Recommended!

First time here and was super impressed, young staff who were all friendly and nothing was a problem, great way to spend an evening celebrating our daughter’s birthdays. We will be back thanks so much

Great atmosphere and service, the food came out exceptionally fast and hot. Will be back, highly recommend.

Friendly service errors made but my fault. Salmon gravelax was really sumptuous. Popular and relaxed. Reccomend for a relaxed easy afternoon. Caters for groups and family friendly from my observation

Excellent atmosphere, yummy food, friendly staff. Went for dinner tonight and another great to due for dinner and followed by extraordinary desert.

Lovely local place to dinner. Have been several times with my family and several work dinners. Every time I’ve had great service and delicious food.
