Somm Wine Bar & Bistro’s celebrated Guest in Residence series returns this month with Central Otago’s Rockburn Winery taking centre stage. Known for wines of striking depth, finesse, and pure fruit expression, Rockburn embodies the extremes of its region, from rugged Bannockburn landscapes to cool Gibbston nights, and the singular intensity of fruit that thrives in these conditions. It’s a pedigree that has earned them accolades aplenty.
From now until the 28th of September, Somm will showcase Rockburn through a bespoke wine flight and a limited-edition menu designed to highlight the best of both the cellar and the kitchen. The Rockburn Wine Flight offers four 75ml pours — an elegant snapshot of the winery’s varietals, anchored by the rare and award-winning Amber, available exclusively to sip at at Somm.
To complement, the wine bar and bistro has also crafted a $45 two-course set menu, brought together with Rockburn’s wines in mind. Expect moreish entrées to start, followed by hearty mains such as venison bourguignon or grilled chicken with Rockburn Amber sauce — dishes that play in harmony with the depth and character of the flight.

Give your wardrobe a timely update with the seasonal essentials that will see you through spring in style. From lightweight jackets to new season denim and the must-have accessories of the moment, this is everything you need to build a curated capsule for the season ahead.
Nothing says spring quite like a breezy mid-length dress — perfectly primed to take you from the office to after-work drinks and beyond.
This rustic-chic jacket’s popularity is showing no signs of wavering — a quintessential wardrobe all-rounder that pairs as well with jeans and a tee as it does a short skirt and boots.
An enduring staple for a reason, a well-cut pair of jeans is a year-round essential, and the wide-leg flare is proving this season’s sartorial superhero.
Put your best foot forward in the shoe of the moment. Part boat shoe, part loafer — this is a hybrid that shouldn’t work in principal, but in practice proves effortlessly elevated.
Bringing a definitive air of laid-back luxury to any look, the rafia bag takes cues from summertime style while proving its prowess year-round.
Finish your look with a flourish and embrace a 70s-inspired shade upgrade this spring — the undisputed frame of the season.
Another shoe hybrid with strong fashion footing, this season, walk the walk in a chic wedged mule.
A silk scarf paired with just about anything is proving a foolproof fashion formula.
Embrace your inner Scandi It Girl and lean into pyjama dressing. ‘Just rolled out of bed’ never looked so chic.
The office shirt has been revamped this spring, with a few bells and whistles that will turn heads at both brunch and in the boardroom.
After months of monochromatic wardrobes and early nights, there’s something about this time of year that feels like coming up for air. Solstice at Commercial Bay is back this September (18th—21st), and it’s shaping up to be the perfect excuse to shake off winter and step into something a little lighter.
Anchoring the celebrations are two runway shows, styled by Karen Inderbitzen-Waller, with a line-up that leans into the optimism of the season. Think fresh collections from the likes of Wynn Hamlyn, Juliette Hogan, Sylvester, Coach and more — pieces designed to lift your mood and energise your wardrobe for the brighter days ahead.
Beyond the runway, the precinct will be buzzing. Harbour Eats welcomes exciting new arrivals — Mokki (serving ceremonial-grade matcha and açai bowls) and King Pow (your new go-to for dumplings and bao) — alongside spring dining offers from go-to favourites. There’s live music, exclusive in-store offers, and a very good reason to shop: one lucky visitor will take home a $5,000 spending spree.
Solstice is all about that shift in energy — the longer days, the return of colour, and the joy of reconnecting. It’s the reset we’ve all been waiting for: fashion, food, music and good company, all wrapped up in a celebration of the season to come.
When & Where: Thursday 18th — Sunday 21st September, Commercial Bay

Across Auckland’s vibrant dining landscape, names like Hugo Baird and Willy Gresson have become shorthand for effortless yet elevated hospitality. From the laid-back charm of Honey Bones to the decidedly European sophistication of Lilian, to the bustling energy of Baird’s Hotel Ponsonby, the pair’s ventures have raised the collective bar with hospitality that feels both unpretentious and deeply considered.
This week, they’ve added a new all-day eatery to their oeuvre, anchored by the soulful cooking of Petra Galler, the baker-chef best known for Butter Butter’s cult following.
By day, Mother’s menu leans into European café culture with coffee, freshly-baked pastries, open sandwiches, and fresh, seasonal salads that can either be enjoyed on the go or lingered over. By night, it will soon shift gear into something more intimate, “Simple food made exceptionally well,” as Baird puts it. Expect Mediterranean-inspired small plates — food that is familiar yet somehow surprising, paired perfectly with an ever-evolving wine and cocktail list that follows the same ethos.
According to Baird, the name is less a branding exercise than a philosophy, “It’s a tribute to our three mothers who have shaped our journey, and a nod to the feeling of sitting down to something nourishing in every sense.”
While the food takes centre stage, the setting refuses to play second fiddle. Interiors, crafted in close collaboration with the experts at CTRL Space, channel a lived-in yet modern European sensibility — stainless steel, butter yellow, earthy elements, and an unforced charm. “Mother is unlike anything else in Auckland, blending the bustling bakery-and-deli culture of Australia and the UK with the laid-back warmth of Europe’s most inviting wine bars,” says Baird.
In a dining scene where novelty often overshadows nuance, Mother reads as a quietly confident reminder that hospitality, at its best, is an act of care.
Opening Hours:
Monday — Friday, 6.45am — 2.30pm
Saturday — Sunday, 7.30am — 2.30pm
Evening service launching soon

This spring, Auckland is set to cement its place as the country’s cultural capital with a line-up of world-class events drawing both locals and visitors into the city’s vibrant fold. From raising a glass at Winetopia to losing yourself in the rhythm of Tami Neilson’s Neon Cowgirl Tour, to the drama of the Dracula ballet at The Civic and the spectacle of Cirque du Soleil’s Corteo, the season promises no shortage of unforgettable moments. Even the iconic Auckland Marathon transforms the city into one giant stage in November. And with so much on offer, there’s never been a better time to make a weekend of it — finding time to enjoy the many spoils Auckland has to offer.
Here, to inform your planning, we share the ultimate insider’s guide to where to eat, drink, stay and play around the city’s most unmissable springtime events.
A city stalwart, Kingi — now with newly-appointed Head Chef Stefania Palermo at the helm in the kitchen, offers a menu that celebrates Aotearoa’s kaimoana, showcasing a range of locally-sourced, sustainable seafood dishes that draw attention to New Zealand’s unique environment. Located on the ground floor of Britomart’s historic Masonic building (right next door to The Hotel Britomart) and open throughout the day, Kingi is great to drop into for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, or even a quick coffee or cocktail.
A long standing stalwart of the Herne Bay dining scene, Andiamo is a neighbourhood trattoria where Italian tradition is met with subtle evolution. The menu highlights house-made pastas, wood-fired pizzas, and seasonal seafood, with favourites like fresh pappardelle, bianca pizza, and fresh market fish ensuring there’s always something to return for. An estate-driven wine list and spritzes at the bar set the tone for a long lunch or easy dinner, while the welcoming service and relaxed setting make it feel like home — only with a little more polish.
If it’s a lively locale that you seek, Soul Bar & Bistro is where we suggest you make a reservation. The Viaduct Harbour go-to can always be counted on to deliver on all fronts. Come for the food, stay for the extensive drinks list, unmatched views, and always buzzing vibe. Soul never misses.
Bringing the renowned Ponsonby favourite to the seaside, Azabu Mission Bay pairs its bold Nikkei flavours with an oceanside setting. Located in a historic stone building on the waterfront, the menu offers inventive dishes like kingfish tiradito, flavourful tacos, and impeccably fresh sashimi. By day the space is bright and breezy; by night, intimate and atmospheric with the clink of saké and soft glow of candlelight. The result is a destination that’s as suited to sun-drenched lunches as it is to evening date nights.
Heroing Andalusian flavours in its menu that marries Spanish culinary ideas with fresh New Zealand ingredients, Alma is a one of the tastiest places to post up for a delectable lunch or to book into for an intimate dinner. Serving small, tapas-style plates designed to share, this eatery has become one of our favourites for its unique food, relaxed atmosphere and impressive wine and gin list. (Pro tip: the Tomato Martini is a showstopper.)
One of Auckland’s most popular eateries, Amano is open from early morning, when it serves elevated à la carte breakfast (and a selection of breakfast cocktails), until well into the afternoon and evening, when it is consistently humming with hungry punters. For lunch and dinner, Amano offers a delicious Italian-inspired menu — transforming from a light-filled eatery into an elegant restaurant come evening. Amano’s dedicated bakery is next door, where coffee, fresh juices, pastries, sandwiches, and more are available for anyone seeking a simple takeaway.
Metita is Michael Meredith’s homage to his homeland, and the culmination of his decades-long career in cooking, and as such, brings something entirely unique to Auckland’s diverse dining scene. Here, you’ll be met with a refined take on Pasifika cuisine and warm hospitality, making every visit a delight.
Tucked inside K’ Road’s historic arcade, Gemmayze Street delivers a Lebanese dining experience that feels both generous and intimate. Family recipes are at the heart of the menu, from silken hummus and smoky baba ganoush to freshly baked pita and aromatic slow-cooked meats, all designed for sharing. The dining room’s tiled floors and greenery evoke a Mediterranean courtyard, while the convivial atmosphere makes every visit feel like a celebration. It’s a destination best enjoyed with a group, plates spread across the table, and glasses raised in good company.
Westmere’s Ragtag is a neighbourhood spot with a rebellious edge, where bold flavours and playful combinations take centre stage. The ever-changing menu leans into Mexican inspiration without sticking to tradition, with constantly rotating, inventive plates that locals consistently rave about. The intimate space is packed with personality, from its stocked shelves to the casual, buzzy atmosphere. Ragtag proves that a laid-back setting can still deliver a dining experience with real culinary punch.
For more than two decades, Non Solo Pizza (affectionately known as NSP) has brought authentic Italian charm to Parnell. Known for its lively courtyard strung with fairy lights and a wood-fired oven at the heart of the action, it offers classic dishes executed with flair. Expect blistered-crust pizzas, fresh handmade pastas, and traditional plates — all finished with a tiramisu that has earned its reputation as legendary. Warm, attentive service ensures every visit feels like a celebration of la dolce vita.
Set in a subterranean spot down Tuawhiti Lane in Britomart, Ghost Street is dimly lit and atmospheric, designed to reimagine the bustling, hole-in-the-wall eateries of Beijing’s famous food street. This idea carries onto the menu too, where punchy, seasonal dishes (inspired by a wide cross-section of Chinese cuisine) run the gamut of flavours from tart and savoury to Sichuan and spice — with something to satisfy every taste and proclivity.
Ellerslie’s Bianca is both a pasta shop and trattoria, bringing chef Hayden Phiskie’s deft touch to every dish. By day, shelves brim with fresh pasta to take home; by night, the menu shines with handcrafted creations that have earned this humble eatery cult status. A concise natural wine list, warm service, and relaxed soundtrack complete the welcoming atmosphere, making it as appealing for a quick plate as it is for a leisurely evening.
Perched a sun-soaked rooftop within the Commercial Bay precinct, Queens Rooftop boats 270-degree views of the Waitematā Harbour, as well as delicious food, and one of the best drinks lists in town. Open from 11am ’til late seven days a week, here, you can grab lunch, a tasty bite and glass of wine, or a post-event cocktail (or two) — taking in the incredible views from the comfort of the always-lively rooftop terrace.
Set in an atmospheric, underground spot on Queen Street, The Nightcar evokes after-dark sophistication with a film noir edge — with an impeccably crafted drinks list and late-night contemporary Chinese bites plus a number of tasty desserts. Open until 3am, this subterranean sanctuary is an ideal spot to make a night of it.
The Wine Room elevates the art of drinking well. Spanning a sunlit patio, subterranean vaults, an inviting lounge, and private dining, the space blends exclusivity with ease. Sommeliers guide guests through an extraordinary list of wines, perfectly paired with chef Ryan Moore’s European-leaning small plates. Ideal for a single glass, a curated tasting, or a special celebration, The Wine Room offers a rare mix of laid-back and luxe — a must for wine lovers, both local and those visiting from out of town.
Set within a historic building on Ponsonby’s Franklin Road, Blue is the all-day neighbourhood darling that transforms from café to wine bar as the sun dips. By morning, locals file in for egg baps and Scandi-style brunch boards, while evenings invite you to linger over refined comfort dishes — think Kiwi onion dip topped with caviar — paired with an evolving wine list. Wooden floors, pottery-lined shelves, and a Tuscan-esque courtyard set the scene for coffee catch-ups, lazy lunches, and convivial glasses alike, making Blue a stylish yet welcoming community hub.
Edie’s Wine Bar epitomises European charm with a distinctly local soul. Chef-owner Charlie Lodge moves the day seamlessly from sourdough sandwiches and Basque cheesecake to evenings of aperitivo: natural wines poured alongside house-made terrines, anchovies, pasta, and patatas bravas. A tiled bar, warm glow, and open-kitchen intimacy give the space a familiar buzz, while a thoughtful wine list keeps regulars returning.
Boasting a sprawling, sun-soaked terrace (the largest in Central Auckland), rotating DJs, a stunning fit-out, and a meticulously crafted food and drink menu (no wonder too, with hospitality maestro Fraser Kirby at the helm) — with a brand new menu for the summer season, Darling on Drake is one of the most lively locales in Auckland and the perfect place to be for sundowners.
Housed in Chancery Chambers, Gilt Brasserie is Josh and Helen Emett’s elegant answer to all-day city dining. By daylight it hums with business lunches and sunlit banquettes; by evening, it glows with martinis at the bar and polished European-inspired plates. The interior’s marble tables, wood detailing, and chic sconces strike the perfect balance between relaxed and refined, while the drinks list leans towards classic cocktails and old-world wines, reimagined with modern flair.
Bon Pinard is Birkenhead’s character-filled wine bar. With its cosy interior of reclaimed kauri, vintage details, and a deck that catches the afternoon sun, it captures the charm of a European bolthole while staying true to its neighbourhood roots. The wine list is carefully curated, designed for discovery, and pairs perfectly with share plates that encourage lingering. Whether for a casual catch-up or a leisurely evening, Bon Pinard offers easy sophistication on the North Shore.
Nestled in the heart of Britomart, this chic hotel offers exquisitely designed rooms (plus five suites) designed to provide a calm respite from the bustle of the city. With warm, modern interiors and a central city location, not to mention the option of ordering room service from none other than Kingi, this centrally-located spot is a delightful place to rest your head.
Positioned in the heart of the CBD, JW Marriott Auckland boasts refined comfort with a distinctly cosmopolitan edge. Spacious, elegantly appointed rooms overlook the city skyline or Waitematā Harbour, while the hotel’s signature service ensures every stay feels effortless. With an indoor pool, spa, and acclaimed on-site dining in chef Wallace Mua’s Trivet, it provides the perfect balance of relaxation and indulgence — a central base for exploring Auckland at its best.
Set on Auckland’s sparkling waterfront, the Park Hyatt offers a luxurious retreat with stunning harbour views. Spacious, elegantly designed rooms and exceptional amenities ensure a refined escape, while, at the hotel’s acclaimed eatery Onemata, local flavours shine. Whether you’re seeking vibrant city energy or serene relaxation, Park Hyatt delivers the perfect balance.
Globally renowned hotel group InterContinental recently opened an Auckland outpost, occupying a coveted site on Auckland’s waterfront overlooking the harbour and offering guests direct and easy access to some of the best restaurants, bars and retail the city has to offer. But, given the hotel’s utterly luxurious rooms and in-house hospitality with Advieh, there will be little need to leave at all.
Jutting out over the water at the end of Princes Wharf, Hilton Auckland combines sleek, contemporary design with sweeping harbour views. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring the ocean in, while the heated outdoor pool (complete with underwater viewing window) adds a playful touch. With modern rooms and the bustle of the Viaduct on its doorstep, this is a waterfront stay that captures Auckland’s maritime charm in style.
Nestled in the heart of Auckland’s Viaduct Harbour, Sofitel Auckland offers a seamless blend of Parisian elegance and New Zealand charm. Luxurious rooms feature private Juliet balconies, deep soaking bathtubs, and stunning harbor views. With its opulent spa, contemporary design, and proximity to the vibrant Viaduct precinct, this hotel is the perfect base for a refined Auckland escape — and would make an ideal spot to settle in during the Auckland Marathon come November.
Located in Auckland’s Viaduct Harbour, QT Hotel is a bold blend of contemporary luxury and playful design. Opened in 2020, this stylish retreat features uniquely crafted rooms inspired by the harbor’s natural beauty. With acclaimed dining at Esther and the vibrant Rooftop at QT offering stunning views, it’s the ultimate destination for travellers seeking a chic Auckland experience.

Nestled beside Albert Park, Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki is New Zealand’s largest visual arts institution, showcasing over 18,000 works. From Māori and Pacific masterpieces to European classics and contemporary art, its dynamic exhibitions and events make it a cultural cornerstone. Explore its award-winning space, join thought-provoking programs, and immerse yourself in Auckland’s vibrant artistic scene.
Discover the vibrant allure of Commercial Bay, Auckland’s premier shopping and dining precinct.

With chic eateries and curated stores just steps apart, it’s the perfect destination for fashion, fine dining, and indulgence in the heart of the city.
Embark on the Rangitoto Island Summit Walk, an easy hike through ancient lava fields and the world’s largest pōhutukawa forest. Accessible by ferry from downtown Auckland, this popular trail offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Hauraki Gulf and back towards Auckland, and an idyllic escape from the city.
Only a short, 10-minute ferry ride from Britomart, Devonport feels a world away from the hustle and bustle of central Auckland. A quaint, peaceful, beach-side suburb with plenty to keep you busy, here you’ll find stunning natural attractions alongside a bustling village with plenty to offer on the food and drink front.

A testament to Auckland’s maritime heritage, Viaduct Harbour is a must-visit precinct for locals and visitors alike.
With golden sands stretching along Auckland’s North Shore, Takapuna Beach is the perfect blend of coastal escape and urban energy. Swim, paddleboard, or simply soak up the sun with Rangitoto rising in the distance, or head along the path for a short coastal walk. From morning coffees and gelato to waterfront dinners, Takapuna delivers the best of beachside living while keeping city convenience close at hand.
