For the first time in a long time I went out for dinner and enjoyed all 3 of the courses! And thats a big deal because I am sooo fussy. Thank you to The Longkeeper in Pukekohe! To start I had the pulled pork soft shell taco OH MY GOD YUUUM! This was followed by the eye fillet which was cooked to perfection! And finished off with the lemon tart that came with a delicious manuka ice cream D E L I C I O U S! The staff were really friendly and attentive. They all smiled and engaged in conversation but wernt pesky or overbearing. One of the waitresses recommended the crispy potato skins which were also to die for. The interior looks amaaazing, like you just stepped into the city and was so fresh and clean. I loved the family style dining tables with bench seats down the middle of the dining area. Everything was reasonably priced and they had a fantastic beer and wine selection. This was comfort food at its best! I could not fault it which is something worth telling! Thanks again to The Longkeeper. And if you havnt been already get your butts down there and check it out!
Wonderful staff & food was lovely and quick , enjoyed our meal with our wee 17 month old. The waiter we had was very doting and great at his job. Highly recommend this place
We love The Longkeeper! The best food, service and friendly staff. We struggle if we go anywhere else because we love it so much. While all the staff are great, Hamind is particularly excellent with his service and always has time for a chat. Thanks guys!
I strongly recommend the Pork Belly Steam Buns, Pork Belly Taco, Beef Salad and Spicy Chicken nachos YUM
Always loved coming here, whether it's a drink or dinner, it is always lovely. Great service & atmosphere �
We came for the platter, turned out to be great value. The only thing better was the helpfulness of the waitstaff and the kitchen going above and beyond to separate the foods for special needs. We’ll be back!
A truly outstanding experience!! Food and service were incredible.
Very child friendly.
Restaurant stays open between 15:00 and 17:00.
Good value for money.
Awesome staff.
After 3 years in Pukekohe, this is the best restaurant experience by a long, long way. Highly recommended.
Our family loved the wee kids' activity area. The Family Computer and Nintendo playstation were nostalgic. The waiter was friendly and attentive.
Bloody awesome food and the best service iv had in a long time. Havent been to a restaurant in Auckland like this in ages. Glad for this to be in my backyard of South Auckland. Puke Proud!
I really enjoyed the feta and Mushroom stuffed chicken breast... It was amazingly presented and the pumpkin puree was FANTASTIC...i wish there was more to it though for the price... I did enjoy it all thoroughly
Very nice food. I went their to had a pizza very nice flavour and i had a beer great place for a nice evening dinner. Will surely visit again
Really enjoyed this bar/restaurant. Came on a quiet week night. The food was really tasty and really good value! The steak and chips for $18 was well cooked and the cheapest Ive ever seen. The Havana burger with pulled pork was full of flavour and the crisscut fries were a good miniside. The chicken wings had a good kick and flavour but needed more sauce and a blue cheese sauce would have made it perfect. Wanted to try the waffle and chicken but there was none left. Got the pork belly steam buns which were amazing with melt in your mouth pork. Would definitely return when in Pukekohe again!
Awesome service, delicious food. We had the pulled pork nachos, pork belly bao and the Havana burger. Everything was on point, the steamed buns were my fav. A must have. Will def be going here again
Had a lovely lunch here with my mum on Saturday. Food was quick and tasty and the service was friendly and helpful :) I like the little outdoor seating area

Everytime I have been here the food has been awesome and the staff have been really friendly.
Pizza is really good we have also tried the ribs, chicken wings, tacos and duck fat potato skins.
Good, solid choice for dinner out.
Great local. Awesome range of food and great service. Good for every kind of occasion if you just want a couple of quiets or a group thing for dinner
Recommend by a friend. Definitely worth the long drive.
Very nice interior design and chilled/relaxing vibe for a pub/restaurant.
Yum Salad - Very nice light flavors. Carrot and zucchini ribbon had a light dressing. Steak was cooking medium rare and was very nice and juicy. The mushrooms had a nice asian favour to it and has a subtle kick of spice which is really nice, the seasame, peanut and fried shallots gives the salad a nice texture and extended favours.
Duck fat potato skins - nice and crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Didn't taste any duck fat as I was expecting some gamey taste to it.
Steamed buns (Bao) Hoisin Pork - Now this is nice! Fatty pork belly nice and tender season with the perfect amount of hoisin sauce, Coriander is a must and give the bao a fresh taste and pickled ginger to cut the fat. Bao itself was nice and fluffy. It was perfect!
Came here with a group. This was my first time experiencing it after hearing so many great reviews. Ordered the single stack burger. Pattie was abit undercooked, so I sent it back, they ended up giving me another one. By this time, 10 minutes have past and everyone else at the table had finished their meals. Pattie AGAIN was undercooked bug I was hungry so I ate it. Ordered a dessert for my wife and I (free dessert for the burger incident) and they gave me the wrong dessert but let me keep it while they got me the right one.
I understand that it was a tad busy. The food was tasty. And would like to try "The Longkeeper" again
This was my first visit since the rebranding and refurbishment. I must I was quite pleased with the decor, was much more welcoming than the last business.
We were glad that we had booked ahead as it was quite busy, being an warm autumn evening it was nice and refreshing to have the windows wide open and a cool breeze blowing while we dined.
I had the Lemon Chicken washed down by a Black Dog Golden Lab beer, my wife had the Steak Sandwich. Both meals were very nice and just about the right size for a light meal. We did struggle to make our choices of food as there were so many good options worth trying.
The staff were nice and friendly, the food was reasonably priced as well. It makes a good place to come with family and friends including children.
We'll be back to try another yummy looking option.
AMAZING FOOD! THE YOUNG MEN WHO SERVED US WAS VERY POLITE.
WAS A LITTLE WAIT ON FOOD BUT OVERALL I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE .
Absolutely beautiful food and great service.
BEST chips I have ever had and would go back for those!
Just quite pricey for the size is all!
Random popin for dinner and managed to get a table for 2.
Seated with menus and orders taken in a good amount of time.
Bar filled up quickly for an event night, and food was still bought out in good time.
The food!!!!! Fresh, soft, tasty salt and pepper squid that had us nodding st each other in agreement of just how good they were!!!
Seafood linguine was amazing!!! Fresh, beautifully cooked seafood and nicely creamy pasta.
Was a wee bit hard to pay for our meals due to the crowd ordering drinks, maybe a designated food order/ payment zone would help.
Absolutely love this gastropub and will definately be back!!!
Pleasantly surprised on an impromptu drop in for dinner.
Good service and great food.
First time having Nachos with actual beef. Great choice.
Definitely worth a try.
YumYum Pawns Yummy
Everyone enjoyed their meal
Great service
Our waiter was a lovely young man
Thanx Longkeeper for a delicious dinner 🥰
10/10 would recommend, the best service, was greeted so warmly when we entered and treated so beautifully by all staff.. Omg the beef cheek was to die for! So melt in your mouth perfect 👌 I will 100% be coming back, thank you for the amazing service and food ❤️
Excellent customer service. Excellent food. We ordered the market fish and chips. It was very good, chips were crispy as it should be, chicken was finger lickin good. We asked for extra sauce and got a good top up.
We will be back The Longkeeper...you are worth our trip! Keep it up! 😀
Visited for dinner with a friends. The service was great & the food was superb with beautiful presentation and wide range of wine and beer, Will come back again!
the food are fantastic, our team had a wonderful dinner together. Strongly recommend to all meet lovers.
Food is very tasty and yummy, good environment, also have a section for kids to play
Waitresses were so lovely and food was yummy. Didn't give 5 stars because part of the establishment we couldn't access due to no wheelchair access.
I would give 6 if I could, but the maximum is 5 stars:)
Loaded nachos, tuna salad on chef special, kids meal - delicious.
Kids corner was so helpful!
And thanks for extremely good service.
We are a social service agency in the community and Longkeeper really supported us we we came in to celebrate our 15 years we really recommend them their food and wonderful service they where all wonderful
Great lunch . Presentation was great and so was the service
I attended a "Stand-up Comedy" night. Great atmosphere, wonderful food, and wonderful servers on the job.
For the Comedy night... the sound system SUCKED!!!... Understanding this was the second time holding... barely anyone attended. YET over 10+ comedians turned up.
The first night the week before was packed. Lack of numbers this week reflected that power sound system failing... hoping addressed next time.
