Had an excellent meal, staff were lovely!
Little bit loud due to the rugby game.
Absolutely lovely food. Best duck in town! And Moroccan chicken with couscous was lovely. Great environment and good location. Definitely recommend this place.
Been here a couple of times and I have to admit I've enjoyed every meal I've had. Meals are a decent size. The fish and chips would have to be my favorite followed by the chicken burger and salt and pepper squid. A little disappointed that they have taken off Mac 3 Wolves off the tap.
Since we gathered our wedding ceremony and reception in bricklane, it's our tradition to celebrate wedding anniversary every year there. The food never disappoint us, we ordered our favourite Lamb Shank, Sirloin Steak, Fish and Chips for our son. The lady who serve us is very friendly and she made our anniversary more especial and memorable thank you for the special dessert you gave to us much appreciate it..
Food was great. Staff were excellent and genuine. Nothing else too add other than will return here again. Great with kids as well is always a bonus
Very kind staff, very clean restaurant. My sister, mum and I had got there a little after 11 and once we ordered the restaurant started to get a little busy. I understand why, the food is great, the price is reasonable. Would recommend to anyone!! 10/10
Really nice ribs with a lovely marinade and crisp well seasoned chips. The ambience is cosy and the service is top notch and friendly. A place I definitely will be coming back to. Good job!
Been to Bricklane on many occasions and always found the staff friendly and food fantastic. Service can be slow at times as they are always busy. Nice clean place to go with family or friends. Avi the Manager is super efficient. Highly recommend Bricklane.
One of my partners easy stop in’s! Pretty standard kiwi comfort, pub style menu! I go with the chowder! He goes with the ribs or chicken burger. Calamari is good too! Have a had a couple of long waits here when place wasn’t necessarily too busy. Decent place for a family dinner or group booking. It is what is it - big portions, pub dining vibe. Will see you again! Thanks
Went here last night and the food was really good and the meals are huge. The service was great. We had the fish & chips which came with 4 bits of fish, chips and a salad. The twice cooked pork belly with kumara mash and savoy cabbage. The steak (which was enormous) with salad and chips. Everything was great, was very impressed. Good local spot to eat and will definitely be back. Was also, very busy for 5pm on a Tuesday night.
Best duck dish I've had in forever. Recommend it highly. Atmosphere was nice. A bit pricey for the steak quality but the duck was worth it. Also the cocktail jars are delicious. The honey one is amazing.
Staff where a bit rude, the food took a long time to come out approx 40 mins but the food made up for it would deffently come back only because of the good food.
Came here for work lunch. Pre-ordered 8 lunches and 4 sides and all of them came on time and served freshly. The portion size is really reasonable and great value. Great place for lunch.
A bit on the pricey end but well worth a treat. Staff are friendly and always willing to help. The brownies at this place is highly recommended
We came here for lunch with a group for a birthday. Great food. Loved the entree kebabs. And got a great amount of sauce with my steak. Fantastic. The staff also organised a birthday cake for the day. Thank you very much. Would come back here. Really enjoyed it
Great meal, generous portions and great friendly service. We were out to celebrate our wedding anniversary, nothing booked, we saw Bricklane, looked inviting with the lights around the outside, thought we’d check it out. A lovely feel place.
I love this place 😍 Their food is always perfectly cooked and packed with flavour. The portion sizes are VERY generous. The staff are lovely and very attentive without being intrusive. I eat here often and I’ve always left satisfied and I accredit that to Bricklanes consistency. I’d give them ten stars if I could.
Amazing food, got what you paid for. Was so much food could not even finish. Place was busy when we went but we managed to find a place. Have nothing to complain about everything was perfect . Would definitely recommend.
Visited Bricklane on a Wednesday night for my birthday. The wait for thr food took quite a while and they mucked up the order so some of the food arrived earlier than others, but the staff were very aplogetic. I ordered the Fish and Chips and the Passionfruit Collins Cocktail. The serving size of the meal was huge and very good value for money. I thoroughly enjoyed the taste, aroma and presentation of the meal. The drink was also good but a little bit too tarty for my liking. Overall it was a good experience and I would return again.
Great ambiance, very child-friendly, generous servings and good food. Appreciate that they give away kid’s packs to entertain the children while waiting for the food to arrive. The kids loved it. We had the Fish of the day, Twice cooked pork belly, kid’s menu - fish and chips and chicken nuggets and chips and baked cheesecake for dessert. The mains were delicious. The meat of the pork belly was tender and the crackling was very crispy. The fish and the prawns were perfectly cooked and well-seasoned. The cheesecake was ok although the base was a little hard. We are keen to go back to try the other dishes.
Love it here!
Been a few times and ate, last time we had the ribs, the portion size was huge, and they were so tasty, with the meat just falling off the bone.
Great staff and great atmosphere
Great restaurant to dine in with your friends, family and child friendly. Love the indoor outdoor setting. Food was delicious and the staff were very attentive and friendly! Would definitely dine in again!
Everything tastes so fresh and that you are actually paying for the quality I got the lamb shanks and they were amazing also the starters were amazing to staff is crack up as well always cracking jokes also the the range of alcoholic beverages is on point espresso martini is my favourite.
The set up here is quite nice. Friendly relaxed atmosphere. The staff are helpful and accommodating. Food is decent not overly fancy but good portion sizes.
Went here for dinner. Great service. Enjoyed our meals, especially the ribs. Servings and portions ate very generous, biggest serving of rump steak I have seen to date.
Not many vegeterian options. Had the vegetarian pasta which was decent. Service was great and decor was nice. Would eat there again just more vegetarian options would be nice.
Been here twice ordering the same thing.
I ordered the pork belly.
First time the pork was cooked to perfection. Melt in your mouth perfection.
So next time I went here i ordered the same expecting the same mouth watering pork belly. But the second time was not as nice. It was dry and a bit disappointing. But still a delicious dish but I was soooo looking forward to getting the same dish.
Entertainment voucher used!
Food: Oh sh** the lamb shanks (2) on mash and gravy was perfect! Tender but not oily meat with soft, buttery mash and a, yes, generous serving of gravy!
Locale: Nice restaurant, points for proper lighting. Looked pretty fancy.
Service: Chick was really nice, but have to be nit picky and say it took a little long for the meals to arrive (there was a group that ordered ahead of us).
Overall: Happy with the quality and quantity!
Dined here on Thursday night using First Table. The place has a country/pub feel and the staff were all lovely. We ordered Arancini balls and lamb kofta for entree, both dish was good flavours were average and the serving was huge! For mains we had duck and steak and duck dish and steak were both HUGE serving and they were both yummy and well presented. Overall we really enjoyed it and it was good to have the first table voucher!!
This place is a constant in our family's dining ots been consistently good over the year's . With fantastic value for money and good wholesome food all and all a great family friendly environment
Pork Belly was pretty mint and would rate it. Didn't have to wait long for food which was appreciated by the crew. Solid night all around and will make another appearance at some point in the near future.
Went here for a work lunch so had a particular menu..staff was awesome really helpful and really nice. I ordered the Thai green curry, sauce was amazing, chicken was spicy which suited me fine, the only downfall for me was the amount of onions in my dish, there was a lot!
Dessert was amazing! Massive serving so definitely worth your money. Would visit again but will try the southern fried chicken, my colleague had this and it looked delish!
Went here for dinner last night on a dinner date. Layout of the place is nice, I liked the decor and the colours. Service was prompt and friendly. Entree=Garlic & Cheese bread $5. Well worth it, great tasting and a good quantity. Deep fried camembert and plum sauce $12=Tasted good but for the don't think it's worth it. Main=Prime Sirloin Steak served with chips, salad and garlic sauce $32=Absolutely delicious, great quality and happy with the serving size. Would definitely purchase this again. We had a coupon for a complimentary main when another main was purchased so basically got one dinner free. So chuffed about that. Overall experience, really happy with it and would recommend this restaurant. Hope to come back in the future.

Some things never seem to leave West Auckland. Bogans, Holden Commodores, Mullets, and traffic lights are sights were all too used to seeing. Bricklane also falls into this category, a stamp which seems to have been around as long as West Auckland itself.
I first came here for a birthday, and was excited having driven past so many times without ever going in. I found parking rather easily and was welcomed by the warm, old fashioned abiance of the restaurant.
We ordered mains straight away. Our service was very friendly, but our meals did take over 35 minutes to arrive. Everyone at my table was very impressed with the portion sizes, especially after a longer than usual wait.
I had lamb which was cooked beautifully, and served on a middle eastern salad. I devoured the dish, each spoonful leaving me more satisfied than the next.
Despite the large portion, there's always room for desert. I ordered a pavlova (another kiwi stamp) which was served with a very sweet passion fruit ice cream. A great combination.
We were all very satisfied after a meal, we now understand why Bricklane has been around for so long, and look forward to coming back for the next birthday.
Waited ages for a table even though half the tables were empty. So enjoyed drinks at the bar.
Waited 30 mins for starter 45 mins for main.
Starter was shrimp cocktail and was excellent.
Main of a steak with mushroom sauce and other main was salmon fillet.
Both were excellent. Beautifully presented, wonderful flavours. Plenty to eat.
Only the long waiting times pulled the score down.
I have always had fantastic food and excellent service at Bricklane. Sometimes the food can take a little bit of time to get to the table but it's always worth the wait!
Went for the mussels they were very nice the menu was on the light side ie no steak :) perhaps given it waa a public holiday it waa nice decor I found it so so may visit again on a weekday
Nothing was at fault
A birthday for granddad with 8 kids and 8 adults. We were seated and soon attended by waitstaff. Pleasant and helpful service. Meals came promptly for the children, followed by the adults' meals. Steak options came to the table cooked to preference. Fish was on the menu as beer-battered, but it was no problem to opt for a pan-fried version. We were somewhat disappointed, at first, to learn when we arrived, that we needed to be gone in 2 hours' time as a previously cancelled table had rebooked and it was ours that was provided. But front-of-house staff I spoke to when I paid appreciated that they should have let us know before we arrived, with a phonecall or at the time of booking. We brought our own cake to celebrate. It was really excellent that the restaurant provided plates and extra cutlery along with a FREE dessert for my father for his birthday. That is hospitality. That is what customers remember. Thank you, Bricklane. Again, we had a lovely night.

The interior of Bricklane is very undertone and relaxing, perfect for a dinner setting. The waitress and the manager were absolutely lovely to me and my family, courteous, polite and conversational, but unfortunately the meal just didn't hold up.
Four meals, three entrees and two sides were ordered. The mains were fairly nice and satisfying, but the entrees were the most average thing I have ever seen. The seafood chowder looked as if it had come out of a Campbell's instant soup can, been poured into a bowl, and microwaved. The staff, however, did rectify this; upon stating the problem, one entree was refunded (there were two seafood chowders ordered). One of the sides never turned up - it was not charged onto the check at the end, but nonetheless it was completely disregarded. The wait for the meal was incredibly slow, at least twenty five minutes for the entree, and twenty five between the entree and the main.
Dessert was not ordered as I was not prepared to wait another half an hour for it, so I went to New World and got a cheesecake there instead. Speed up please!
Thank you to the two lovely ladies who served us, you were very hospitable when confronted about the problems.
All in all, a nice place. Our waitress was a bit clumsy (I think she was new) although it didn't affect our experience, she was polite and accommodating. I ordered the twice cooked pork belly w/ apple fritters and my girlfriend ordered the scotch fillet w/ scallops, prawns and sauteed spinach. Portion wise, the meals were pretty decent - loved the apple fritters and both the pork and steak were cooked perfectly. Really chill vibe, casual yet elegant. Beautiful decor and stone fireplace. Parking is definitely not an issue seeing as it's situated beside the old New Lynn cinemas.
Great family dinner last week for mums birth day. Fast and friendly service and excellent food all round. Will definitely be coming back again
Had a great pan fried fish, potatoes and salad lunch on Tuesday with a client and left a file behind.I phoned and the waitress had put the file in the office.Drove back today (about a half hour drive) to retrieve it and decided to have the meal again on my own!It was very tasty and delicious - keep it up.
Been here for a few times and service and food has been great. The last visit not so much. My friend who ordered the chicken was served a lamb instead because of miscommunication. Steak was very chewy and was only warm when served. Definitely room for improvement.
First of all the service. The service was good thanks to our waiter Charles, he did an excellent job. The other wait staff was okay.
I visited Bricklane yesterday with my sister and niece. We came for lunch and also got dessert.
Lunch was $15 and desert was $9 their Thursday special. I got the pulled pork soft taco, it was really delicious!! My sister got the chicken burger that was yummy full of flavours, the cheese went well with the cranberry sauce. My niece got chicken nugget and fries.
Our food overall was yum and would visit again.
Desert was the best!! The banofee pie was delicious it was way better than the brownies. However what made the brownies and banoffee pie good was the ice cream.
I visited Bricklane for desert a couple of weeks ago, and the banoffee pie is absolutely divine. The service is great, and the interior is well-presented and classy. Bricklane is the perfect place to relax with a few friends and a couple of drinks. I will definitely be back to try a proper meal here.
Salt and pepper squid was the freshest most tender I've ever had and nice to see it presented in a different way to the usual under seasoned squid so many others do. The curry was a pleasant surprise for a European restaurant this was a genuine Indian curry - yum!
Friendly staff, nice and tidy restaurant and the food has always been well up to scratch. We go here often for family birthdays as we live out west and it is nice not to have to travel too far for a good quality restaurant. Will keep coming back, keep it up Bricklane :)
Love the $15 lunches that they have, great portion sizes. I had the Chicken Parmigiana and it was very tasty I even had to take some of it home because it was so filling
Have had this place bookmarked for agessss! Brick lane is a really casual pub grub restaurant with a really nice atmosphere to it. Came in after 9pm and the place was packed. While waiting for a table I had a fluffy duck cocktail which was AMAZING ! my new favourite. I knew the waiter so the service was good, and he recommend the fish, lamb, steak or chicken. The food took a little while to come out but probably because it was busy. My partner had the chicken which he couldn't stop raving about, he loved the pineapple relish and I had the fish of the day which was really nice but I found there was to much salad and not enough of the fish itself. I would come again as I had a really good night out!
First time dining at this side of town with my beautiful friend, the place was tidy, service awesome.We ordered lamb shanks and lamb rump.. Wait about 20 minutes for food And the food was nicely cook and yummy... Quite large portions too but we both staving so we clean up the plate.. And the price was good for 2 with food and drinks.. Go check it out when you in New Lynn!!
Came here on a Sunday night.. Service was a little slow. Food was yummy plus good servings. I enjoyed smoked chicken filo and my partner had lamb shanks. Will go back. :)
Came for the Saturday $15 lunch specials. Hadn't been here in 10 years so decided to give it another go.
I had the Pan fried fish, salad and roasted potatoes. My friend had the steak sandwich. Have to say I'm quite impressed. The fish was fresh and potatoes were roasted nicely.
The steak sandwich was not chewy and had the right amount of chips too!
Also used an entertainment voucher so meant that both meals were $15! Which was a total deal and worth it for the quality and quantity.
Would come back here again even without the Entertainment voucher :)
Bricklane is a favourite of mine! Have been going there for 2 years now. My favourite is the risotto balls (entree). They are delicious! Another favourite is the chowder- it's creamy and full of flavour. Has a great vibe and the staff are efficient and friendly. A lovely dining experience- my inlaws also love it!
Food: 4.5/5
Service: 4/5
Ambience: 5/5
Overall: 10/10
Staff are lovely, welcoming, friendly and efficient. I have been here so many times for lunch and dinner or just dessert for 6 years now. Have introduced Bricklane to family, friends and locals - they also have never been dissapointed. Meals are amazing and good value. My top favourite dishes I recommend - The Squid as an entree, Pork Belly and the Scotch fillet that come with prawns as the main. If you can fit in dessert, the desserts are absolutely amazing! I recommend the Banoffe Pie and Pavalova.
Temptation Cakes Auckland
+5
12 of us came in yesterday for my mum and dads joint birthday lunch.
Great $15 menu on with lovely choices but sadly none really for my vegetarian uncle so he had the corn fritters without bacon but good value tasty meals for sure.
Started with bread and dips and I must say every dip was LUSH could if gone a little more bread though as we had dips left over and no bread to put them on hehe ;)
Well done guys we are going to be back for sure keep up the amazing work.
OW!! and thanks heaps for allowing me to setup mum and dads surprise candy chaos birthday cake!!
Bricklane was a warm and inviting place to eat on a cold winter's day. We grabbed a table by the fireplace for lunch and ordered the crispy salt and peppered squid salad, chicken parmigiana and the beer battered fish and chips. We absolutely enjoyed our meals. The staff were friendly and attentive and service was fast. We'll definitely be back!
Great place for lunch and dinner. It is a pub, but food is definately creative .I sat in the outdoor area, but have previously been inside near the nice warm fire in winter. Interesting lunch menu and very reasonably priced.
I enjoyed the meal so much that I asked for a slice of bread to mop up the sauces, this was a bit of a problem but was eventually resolved.
This is a very nice place with friendly staff. There is plenty of car parks around the area.
I ordered a scotch fillet steak, which overall was pretty good. However I asked for medium, but it felt more medium-rare with some bits undercooked.
A complaint I do have is to do with the smoking area in the north side of the building. The doors to the north get left open and cigarette smoke comes into the building. I think this needs to be watched by staff and the north doors be kept shut, and provide access to this area via the west or east sides.
Update
Came here again for fish of the day. Excellent fish. Decent portion. Nicely cooked with a good amount of seasoning.
Amazing place. Friendly staff. The meals are large portion and reasonable price. The food was amazing. good selection on the meal. The chicken breast was tender with a yummy cheese and wine source, with a big side salad. The triple chocolate brownie was so good warm brownie with ice cream was a good way to treat the sweet tooth
Had a great family meal here last night. Children entertained with great kids packs. Food good quality pub food that is well priced, tasty and plenty of it. Will be back
We were recommended Bricklane and I had a very enjoyable meal with my family. It had a warm atmosphere and the food was generously portioned, very tasty and the service unobtrusive, efficient and friendly.
great family restaurant with an awesome atmosphere, the staff at bricklane treated us amazingly and met our every need. Food was superb and the massive portions filled us up. Would definitely go back again.
Food was Delish, Be sure to arrive on an empty stomach Serving sizes for each dish was larger than expected no complaints in that department & Moneys worth. Just a tad bit of a let down on 1hour 30mins of waiting time before meals were served, half our table of 14 were served meals at different times which is a bummer having to eat your meal while others are still waiting on theres. Service was great, Maybe would have enjoyed it more if they had open windows or doors to let fresh air circulate, can get a bit unattractively hot and it's not what you want when trying to eat a meal.
After Xmas 2014, my husband and daughter joined me in a delicious meal at Bricklane, New Lynn.The service was amazing, and it is so nice to be greeted with a smile. We ordered two different steak meals, and a chicken in filo pastry.The steak was cooked to perfection, and the filo pastry on the chicken was crunchy and mouthwatering.The waitress was patient, informative, and looked cheerful thoughout the night.Totally recomend this restaurant to anyone who is wanting a good value for money meal, with great refreshment selection and staff that go the extra mile to ensure your needs are met.
Food is kinda bland but good portions, well large portions. Decent prices. Good vibe and nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. Very attentive and provides great suggestions as to whoch item to try. Lovely desserts
Lovely place. Nice beautiful restaurant. Seating plan is a bit poor. Food is delicious! Waiting time is long though. Nice service xx yay! :)
We had a Netball lunch at Bricklane yesterday. There was a big selection of different meals ordered at our table and everyone
thoroughly enjoyed their meals. The service was fantastic, the staff were so friendly and obliging and the atmosphere was
amazing. I would strongly recommend it for their food, their service and their hospitality. It is child friendly and I was very
impressed the way the brought a gift out for my granddaughter and the other children present in our group. I will definitely being going back.
The service is very good, the indoor dining room could do with a bit lighter decor. The food was OK but I ordered a Thai chicken salad and while the salad and chicken were very good it lacked any real Thai flavour, a slight hint of coconut was all I could taste. They may be afraid of some flavours being too strong for some (although why you would order Thai flavour if you don't like it?) so I suggest they provide the Thai dressing on the side to be added if you like the traditional Thai flavours: fish sauce, chilli, lime, coriander etc.
My partner and i dined at Bricklane last Tuesday night and was treated to a superb evening. Right from the second we walked in the front doors we felt so warm and welcomed. The front of house staff were inviting and friendly. Being the Head Chef of a restaurant myself I am very picky when it comes to my food. We sat down and had Entree's, Mains and Coffee's all of which were devine. Well done Bricklane.
Highly recommended
13/7/14 Thoroughly enjoyed yet another lovely meal at Bricklane New Lynn, We were waited on by a very cheerful, friendly waitress (Leah) whom has served us in the past. Quite some years ago we used to visit quite regularly but meals deteriorated and we stopped coming. It has only been within the past year that we decided to return and have been very satisfied with the meals, service and atmosphere. Thankyou Lana M
Had another delicious meal here tonight, the lamb rack. We've been dining at Bricklane for years now and have never had a bad experience. They don't do 'fine dining' but serve 'real, plentiful and tasty food', and the restaurant has a nice casual feel about it and they also have a loyalty card which is a bonus. Thanks Bricklane
Always love to go to Bricklane for a big feed. My favourites are the fish and chips and scotch fillet - always cooked perfectly. Bricklane Restaurant has an awesome vibe and is great to go to chill out with a beer and chat to the locals and regulars. Can't wait to go back to try some more dishes :)
Not been to Bricklane for years, suddenly this year there have been 3 occassions in 2 months. The menu on offer though it may be somewhat - "usual" the presentation of the food and the flavours are superb. Top job Chef! On two occassions we were served by the same waitress, bubbly, efficient, helpfull and timely. Could not complain about the service. One occassion, could have complained as service was a bit slow, the place was packed and we had a new waitress - in training. So really it would be mean to do so. Love the atmosphere, love the staff, even the manager. Give him some cheak and you may get a pleasant surprise. I did. All in all it's nice to have a fun, friendly restauarant out West.
We have been going to Bricklane for years and once again, we really enjoyed our meal this week.
We started with a sourdough loaf and garlic butter, and then I had terakihi with garlic prawns on a mash bed, which was great. My wife had the fillet steak with scallops and prawns which was cooked medium rare - exactly what she asked for.
The staff are very helpful and know the dishes very well and provide good quality service which we appreciate.
They don't market themselves as fine dining, but we have always had really good meals, which is why we come back. In terms of value for money, they are hard to beat.
We would like to highly recommend Bricklane Restaurant Clark Street New Lynn where we eat frequently because of its wonderful ambience, competitive prices and great service from manager Peter and his staff.
See you there soon!
This is the opinion of Alf and Liz of New Lynn.
Enjoyed a $15 lunch with a pre order, delicious pan fried fish & great value, during a work function, look forward to going back,
I also went years ago & it seems busier & a bit different now, the prices have gone down compared to what the used to be. Probably one of the few good eateries around New Lynn.
Want a decent sized meal, then Bricklane is the place to go! Good specials to be had on every night of the week as well. Every time I have been there with friends our meals have been cooked to perfection, service and staff excellent too. Pasta night has good sized meals for a small price, I had smoked fettuccine last time and it was so creamy ..... Bricklane is the first restaurant I would think of to take friends to for a meal.
A few work mates and I came in lunch last week and had an absolute amazing meal. I ordered the Pork Schnitzel, I don't usually go for Schnitzels as I find them too dry but this was cooked to perfection. My work mates had the Fish and Chips and the Sweetcorn fritter. Both were also amazing, the batter on the fish was incredibly crispy without being too oily and the sweet corn fritter had a decent amount of crispy bacon.
Highly recommended!
We had dinner here last Sat. night and as usual it was absolutely delicious. We took some friends for the first time and they were very impressed. We've eaten here many times and is our favourite restaurant and we've never had a bad experience. The meals are always substantial and of consistent quality. We love you Bricklane............Steve Weston you're the man!
Had brunch here last weekend with my family. I love this restaurant and have dined here frequently with family and friends, over the years. My meal (roast vegetable and feta salad) was delicious, and the coffee very good. Our sons enjoyed the big breakfast and the beef burger followed by the banoffie pie. Everyone in our party of 14 were thoroughly satisfied with their meals. Thanks Bricklane. We'll be back!
I have eaten here a few times recently and I have to say they are really consistent.
I am gluten free and they never have a trouble ensuring that I have lots of options to choose from, they are even happy to adjust a meal to ensure that it is what I want.
The servings are big and even when the place is quite full the food is pretty fast and the service is on to it. We went for fathers day and there was even a free beer for dads.
This was my first time dining at Bricklane and I'm so glad I went there for dinner with my best friend (it was her birthday) we both enjoyed our meals soooo delisshhh!!!...the service was great, staff were very welcoming and friendly and our waiter was attentive and professional a very pleasant young man. The restaurant was warm and the atmosphere was lovely, would definitely return again without a doubt :)
Had a lovely evening there with a group of 9.
All our meals arrived at the same time. Everyone enjoyed their choice, glad I didn't have an entree as the main was a large serving.
Had the fish of the day with prawns and wine and garlic sauce it also came with a good serving of veggies and beautiful fresh baby potatoes. Yum.
Everyone enjoyed their mains then we had desert, I had the cheesecake of the day with liquor and berries it was a cooked cheesecake and looked a bit deflated in the middle and had a really thick crust, it was very heavy eating won't have that again. I should have gone for the apple and rhubarb crumble as that was delicious. Had a taste of the benoffee pie that was delish as well. We'll def be back :-)
Went out for dinner with my family and had a great evening. Very good food all round, my lamb shank was excellent. We were well looked after by a young asian waitress who was friendly, attentive and professional. I will certainly go back again and this time leave room for the sticky date pudding.
Great place... Nice and welcoming.... Food is awesome.... Lamb shanks are like aaaaaaawwwww.... I personally loved the place but my partner on the other hand well just being a fussy pants... Services is great, the atmosphere is great and the food is delicious.
After being told again and again to check this place out, my partner and I decided to check out what everyone was going on about.
WOW. Value for money!!!!!
This place is amazing. Portion size above average and priced right. nice warm and cosy and set up as a good family restaurant.
Was so impressed.
Only one thing they need to work on. Lighting- way to bright for my liking and if the have done this on purpose for the older croud you might end up missing out on the younger market staying for a few drinks after dinner.
Hey another good family restaurant out West. We went on Thursday between 5-6 they have the earlybird special, and desserts are half price. I had the lamb shanks - not bad! (although I would have liked some green veges with it, seems like they only came with mash and carrots)and the dessert..really good, couldn't finish. Although their bannoffee is a treat..it doesn't quite surpass Tony's (my favourite) but since there's no Tony's in New Lynn I think you would feel at home here. The service is excellent and they go out of their way to make your meal special. :-)
Had a fantastic meal at Bricklane tonight.
Fish of the day was grilled Terakihi with a yummy white sauce, plus garlic prawns, on a bed of potatoes with a salad. Oh my gosh, it was just so yummy! At least 6 large prawns. The staff are so friendly there. Felt very at home.
Have been here for lunch a few times now. My favourite, the Salt & Pepper Squid is awesome, & the taste & quality consistent. Well done to the chefs!
went for a quiet dinner on a Thursday night before going into the city to listen to live music - great food and the waiters are really excellent. had a family atmosphere - a birthday on outside and family groups dining indoors, but spacious enough so no noise problems..good to go somewhere which welcomes babies. we're going again - group from work, and happy we can bring along the babies. we'll keep going.
Have been here quite a few times, about 3 times for dinner, and maybe about 5 or 6 times for dessert. It is an excellent place to go. The staff are always friendly, super attentive (without being in your face), the prices are fairly reasonable, and the food is always delicious! I really like how they have regular weekly specials, like Thursday is half price dessert night. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
Good parking, friendly cosy atmosphere, plenty of room. Good food and service, bit expensive.
$8.50 for half a small glass of house wine! No BYO. Prefer to go Thursday evening when Miro's Gypsy Strings are playing - lovely music, makes a nice evening..will certainly go again. Good place for a group.
Not so good now - no Gypsy music. They were so good.
The food was just beautiful, from entrees through to the mains and dessert!
Lamb shank perfectly cooked and fell off the bone. Seafood chowder was amazing, pumpkin (soup of the day) mussel pot, everything was delicious we definitely recommend. I’m not a big fan of the deserts but my wife loved it!
Shoutout to our sister, chef Nanalisi 🤗Hope to be back here again on our next visit to NZ.
5 stars from us ☺️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Loved the atmosphere - Family friendly. We had a couple of 5 yr olds with us. Able to cater for our large group. The meals are generous in size we we were fed quite well. Friendly staff who allowed us at the last minute helped us celebrate my niece’s birthday.
Having been there in the early days and not being impressed, I went tonight with guarded optimism. And it definitely exceeded my expectations.
The service was friendly, quick and professional. They were welcoming regulars with such joy. It was lovely to see.
The food was great. We had duck, chowder and round. I'm an ex chef so I'm a bit picky and would have cooked the beans less but it was all delicious. My dining companions gave it a solid 10/10.
We will be back!
Bricklane had a great atmosphere, they have a range of options and different specials set for each day of the week.
The staff are great and helpful. Food tastes great but food some of the options you feel s bit let down. Chilli prawns from the starters was covered in sweet chilli sauce on a bed of couscous that was more on the over done side. The rest of the entrees were ok BUT I think they do better with their mains.
The market fish was amazing and a great meal portion. Their scotch fillet had many trimming options and was cooked as requested, the pork belly was cooked great.
For us the entrée and mains were enough to be full and left no space for dessert, next time we'll plan it differently 😉
Great service, nice ambience and tasty food. I had a twice cooked pork belly with super crispy skin that was delicious! My wife really enjoyed the crispy duck. My kids had a classic fish and ships with crumbled fish and chips, while the youngest had a chicken, bacon and mushroom fettuccine. Everything was spot on!
Great service, lovely atmosphere and delicious food. I always really enjoy going out for date night at Bricklane, have never left disappointed. Thanks again!
Dinner for two . I had lamp ribs $25.00 and my friend had beer battered fish and chips $28.00 both meals were delicious . The service was prompt and efficient. The waitress went out of her way to talk with us and make us feel welcome. The restaurant’s theme is the old crown lynn crockery factory and brick o brac of that era is prominent on the walls
The food was amazing, big servings and very tasty. Service was great. When we ordered our meals we were told they were very busy and wait time would be approximately 30 - 40 minutes. Food was on the table in 20 minutes, great effort.
Came in for a midday lunch here and was definitely not disappointed! Lunchtime service here is nice and peaceful, there were still people in the restaurant but was nice to have lunch when it was a bit quietier than dinner service.
The food here was most certainly amazing. Their portion sizes are quite large for the cost. I had the pork which was cooked to perfection, almost didnt need a knife to cut it with!
They have a great menu selection, something for everyone. They also have certain specials on different nights. During the week there are 15 buck lunch specials and specials for weekend lunches too. They also have a pretty sustanial range of cocktails served in mason jar type cups l. Those who ordered these in our group seemed to enjoy them!
Parking here is easy, plenty of parks to choose from not far from the door. Also plenty of disabled parks too.
Have been back here again with a party of 17.... 5 under 10 yr olds and the staff and management went out of their very busy evening to make sure the little ones enjoyed themselves as much as us adults ( not that I claim to be an adult. ) They brought out some toys to keep the juniors happy until the food was served. The food was exquisitely delicious.... thank God for doggy bags!! Thank you all for an amazing 50th birthday celebration for my wife. Can't recommend this establishment enough. Try yourself, personally 100% satisfied !!!!
we haven't been dinning in new lynn for many years....my wife and I had a fantastic lunch with good staff and service..will be back
No complaints here, top notch service and excellent food.
Went in on a sunday and place was nice and quiet. Waiters and manager were all very welcoming and polite.
The chef had his A game on and all the food was beyond perfection.
Great to have such a quality establishment in new lynn.
The food is to die for! Best meal I've had for a long time. I'd half eaten mine before remembering to take a picture lol sorry about that. Reasonable prices. Friendly staff. Lovely warm atmosphere. I had the lamb rump followed by triple chocolate brownie. I highly recommend this restaurant
Food was amazing!
Customer service wasn’t the greatest but everything else was really fast and great.
The restaurant had a nice vibe and the service was good. Not the best eye fillet steaks. The fries and salad were good and the portion sizes were perfect. The two for one desserts were amazing - sticky date pudding and banoffee pie.
I was here a few weeks ago for lunch. We had not booked, but the staff was kind enough to squeeze us in. The staff was friendly and had some great customer service skills. Food was amazing and portions were great. The mashed potato in my meal was very tasty and creamy! We finished our meal with a dessert that was very yummy too. Would highly recommend them and would visit them again :) Cheers
A good range of meals, great portions. Nice, well spaced dining areas. Only 4 for service because our meal was over the slow time, so not fully staffed.
Great food, decent portion and a very reasonable price. Always loved their fried chicken, but tonight we ordered duck and miso salmon - they were so satisfying!!!! You get half of a duck and it was perfectly juicy with a sweet mandarin source. Thanks Bricklane!
