Bedford Soda & Liquor

Meatballs and side! What else do you need. Meatballs were nice but a bit small.. Had side salad which was somehow bland with not much dressing on it. But if you are looking to so some low-key quick lunch, I guess the solution is here. The passion fruit lemonade was really yummy and chicken stripes. I think better to come for drinks as their cocktail menu looked like a bomb

If you’re looking for a homey meal that fills you up, the food here is great! The weekly drink specials are super yum and the service is very friendly : also - if you want a Canadian-ish poutine then get the fries with cheese and gravy! But ask for extra gravy

Incredible cocktails! Unique, perfectly balanced and served with care and style. The mixologist was so professional - despite having to play 'front of house' to swathes of walk-in hopefuls They were drastically understaffed. It's a shame the bar staff aren't given the support they need. In spite of this the mixologist was friendly, patient and so talented!

Nice place. Went for a couple of drinks and hot chips on a saturday afternoon. Was reasonably quiet just before dinner time. Cocktails were good. Reasonable prices for the area. I would say it is a good place to have drinks in Ponsonby Central.

Don’t try to go after 10pm because on this occasion absolutely nobody even noticed we were sitting outside at their tables waiting to order our drinks we were 6 people so it wasn’t like we were hard to spot. Although in saying that it was hit and miss because when others came to sit at the other tables they were tended to promptly. The drinks were ok priced but it seems after the pandemic they stopped serving bubbly water and now costs $2.

Honestly, one of my fave restaurants in Auckland! They have perfected their menu!! I always go home happy and well fed. Also cocktails are a hit too!!

Location good can see other lovely dressed people dinning around. Ponsonby is also a great place to be. However the menu and the food can be improved as the meat balls are not tasty and very salty. Food is very limited too. I don't think we will be back.

Delicious vegan meatballs and unique cocktail options. Atmosphere is intimate and for a Thursday it was very quiet.Recommended dishesRisotto

We had a great time here. First we only wanted to have one drink to refresh, but we stayed and had serveral amazing cocktails. Each one was great. The barkeeper knows what he is doing. Prices are fine for that quality. Also the sides have been great. As in Suckland usual we also got free tab water.

Great spot. I was waiting for someone and chatting with the friendly staff for a while. The food came and it was excellent.
