An icon of Auckland’s Viaduct Harbour, Soul Bar & Bistro epitomises waterfront dining at its glamorous best. Whether you’re people-watching on the expansive deck or luxuriating in the chic interior, Soul delivers on its name with dishes that truly have heart. The menu is equal parts comfort and class: their infamous salt-and-pepper squid is a must, oysters are shucked to order, and the crayfish linguine is pure indulgence. Long lunches often stretch into sunset cocktails, which Soul does exceedingly well. With a lively atmosphere and polished service, Soul remains the place to see and be seen while enjoying consistently excellent fare.
