Morningside Tavern

First off: Parking can be problematic if there's a rugby game.nnI'm here Saturday night at 6 pm with a group of 25. I scouted the menu prior to attending - I was looking forward to lamb shank. However, the event menu was on which is bar food - burger/chips style and on any other occasion is not an issue.nnFood was average, not great, just mhhhh.nI had the beef burger and pork bites. Burger meat was dry a lot of comments were made from our group about this being dry. The pork bites were seriously salty.. about 8/9 pieces and only had 3 and a bit - couldn't finish it.nnGreat vibe, great music, and big screen TV to watch games.nnWould I come back? No.nWould i recommend it to others? Probably if the location is what they're after.

Stopped for a quick beer and a bite.nn$130 approx for 2x pizzas, 2x fries, 1x beer large, 1x Prosecco and 3x softies.nnPlace was fizzing on New Year's Eve, but the team squeezed us in without a booking.nnKumera fries with sour cream and sweet chili sauce for the win!nnPizzas were good, puffy crust, nice and thin, good amount of toppings.nnKirrin Japanese lager on tap and a good range of cocktails.nnFor those less socially inclined you can order via the on-table QR codes. Great spot out the front in the garden bar under the umbrellasnnStaff were relaxed, but kept the place ticking over, the perfect balance of being attentive without being intrusive. Will defo be back, nice to have a decent pub right next door to our favorite cafe in Auckland: CRAVE which I have also reviewed

Great place to watch rugby and drink beer with friends. The DJ is also great and makes me feel like dancing. Had a great birthday celebration here!

Great service and food. Very pleased with everything.

The atmosphere is nice. The space looks like a vintage library or an old house. An elcetic DJ was playing music with very good vibes. I would expect better menu choices, but it was aceitable if you consider to have bites instead of dinner.
