Reviews 1958 Bar & Eatery

Airport food is always something I consider a dicey, pricey prospect. A captive market, too often us travellers are exploited as our hunger and changing time zones lead us to accept whatever is on offer. 1958 is one of the last eateries you will come across when walking the Auckland International Departures area. It also seems more like a bar than a place to get a decent feed. However I was superbly delighted when my decision to order some good kiwi Fish and Chips arrived perfectly done. Fresh, golden, crisp fish, chunky well-seasoned fries, a vibrant salad with peas, lemon and tartare sauce. It was everything fish and chips dreams of being. Heaven! The dining area was tastefully furnished and had plenty of power outlets for me to recharge my devices from, while offering the best view of the airport exterior with all the plane action. Service was friendly and efficient. I think, being a lounge-less flyer, I just found a new favorite spot to keep as my haunt the next time I depart Auckland.
