This place is fab the staff were fantastic and our lunch was gorgeous I had the scallops and my flatmate had soup of the day, both delicious and the cocktails were great as well. The price was lower than expected and I can't wait to go back. To know they also do takeaways and dinner deliveries is even better.

We stumbled upon this British eatery on Waitangi Day for lunch as it was one of the higher rated places!
We walked in at a awkward time, in time for a late lunch and the lady told us at first that it was too late but then she generously let us sit down and order anyways.
We got the Beef Cups, Chicken Jerk Tacos and a Smoked Salmon & Prawn Salad to share between 2.
Food didn’t take long to arrive, and my it was such a wholesome meal! The soft beef was mixed with a plum jelly-like substance, and sat in small pudding cups. The small side salad it came with was also full of flavour; I wasn’t expecting it!
The chicken tacos were amaaaazing, burst of flavour and the chicken was tender and oh-so-satisfying to devour!
The salad was beautifully plated! Fresh, crisp and refreshing, the dressing delicately wove the flavours and textures together. Loved the touch of beetroot sauce on the side! Different and bold.
At extremely affordable prices, the Beef cups and tacos were $14 each and the salad was $13.50! Absolutely crazy! It set us back by $41.50 and we were really satisfied. Hearty and authentic food made from the heart. Service was extremely accommodating, lady was so nice to us even when we were the last to leave. Atmosphere is very rustic, you feel like you’re in Britain!

been there twice. Very nice, good food, good price, good atmosphere. You have to go there at least once. ignore the bad reviews, i feel they are just having bad days when they give low ratings,
The food was incredible, they were so fast with all the food and service was amazing. My only tip would be to do up the bathrooms as they weren't very nice. ❤️
We just love going to our local restaurant. Always taking family & friends, either for lunch, dinner or just a drink or two with nibbles. Great service always with a smile. Recommend The Shires to anyone who want a beautiful, cosy, warm atmosphere to dine.

Came here on a quiet Tuesday night. The two waitresses were very nice, and it was nice and cosy with the decor and low lighting. We ordered 2 of the Scotch Fillet Steak mains and the Pork Belly. It was a very long wait for a quiet night (well over an hour), but the food was very good, the steak cooked nicely (I got mine with the mushroom sauce which had a lot of flavour, the mash was smooth and very tasty, and the roast kumara was delicious). The waitress said we could get these with both yorkshire puddings and onion rings (the menu states to choose one of either), however we were unaware until paying that we were charged an extra $6 per plate for the extra onion rings which seemed a bit much (they were really tasty though - very crunchy and nicely seasoned). The Pork belly was tender and came with a flavorsome sauce, and they were fine with swapping out the scallop potatoes for mash. Overall a great experience with the food but due to pricing and wait time, probably would only come back on a special occasion.
Great atmosphere. Real food. The liver and bacon was particularly good. Have been there many times for lunch and dinner. Always enjoy myself I love the dessert trolley.
Amazing atmosphere; so perfect for a very special night out with my lady. Thank you so much; the food was superb and the service faultless, welcoming and friendly with some good humour. Will be back often.
It was amazing lunch for us. the food was fantastic especially the ribs (I was say this the best one by far) I'm a big fan of pork spare ribs..the service was very friendly and quick...we will go back there again soon for sure
Love the meals here. The selection is great and they are welcoming of children. The menu for the kids isn't processed chicken bites and fish but the real deal! Beautiful battered fish and a selection that is enough for our young ones to choose from.
Amazing restaurant, wonderful staff and the kai is beautiful. Hardly a wait time. My partner asks should we go out for dinner? My response is The Shires. Been here loads and will keep on going.
A lovely last evening with our family before flying home to UK.
Always the best restaurant to enjoy a real treat from the moment you step inside with the warmest if welcomes from a happy team where nothing is to much trouble.
The food was as ever delicious, and you could just sit relaxing knowing your every need for a special evening was taken care of.
Thank you and see you again very soon.
Lovely food beautifully prepared and great service. Highly recommend.
Again another amazing meal totally enjoyed every bite. Loved the girls singing Happy Birthday to the Birthday party at the other table absolutely awesome 👌
I’m from Yorkshire so this place was awesome! Had a cocktail which was yummy, service awesome. Only 4 stars as didn’t eat so can’t judge the food but for drinks definitely worth a visit!
Had a lovely family dinner and it was great 👍 👌 😋
