Play Pokies at The Shakespeare Hotel I Restaurant & Bar I Pub I Micro Brewery in Auckland

Bought a grab one deal. Supposed to be for 2 tasting paddles and and any item off the bar menu per person. On arrival...after specially booking ... we were given the worst table in the place and informed that not only could we not have our choice from the menu...but only choose between the fries or the garlic bread. And only 1 item between 2 people...not each as per the deal. (The deal even has the menu options attached.)
Am beyond disappointed. If the deal was supposed to win them more customers they have failed miserably. We definitely won't ever go back.

Neat atmosphere can definitely tell she's a piece of history lol. Service was alright. Staff may have had enough for the day. We bought a 3 course meal from grab one it was soooo so good!! Food looked great and was very delicious!

Not sure how you run a pub but close the kitchen before closing time. I think Kiwis have lost the concept of how business works. Provide and people will keep coming stop and I don't come again.

Kitchen closed 815pm. Anywhere in the world that is when people start eating. Drink and food. Simple pub recipe.

We had pnlya beer in the pub. But the home made beer Was great and the stuff was very friendly. The house looks great with a lot of history. I can recommend this place fora beer and I think the food must be fine as well.

If you like a charming, historical, old fashion little boutique hotel with a glorious past and a very good pub and restaurant, this is the right place! Not to mention the amazing and super convenient location!
The rooms, however, are very small and definitely old fashioned: but this is part of the charm.
Not recommended to people who have issues climbing the stairs (there is no lift).
