The Summer Food & Drink Guide
Because the year’s too long and summer’s too short to waste time on the mediocre.
Summer hasn't truly arrived until you've licked the salt off hot-chip fingers at the beach, dripped peach juice into the crook of your arm, breathed in smoky barbecues and clinked glasses over a sinking sun at one of the city's finest rooftop establishments. You've not a care in the world besides finding that new cabana bar and staying there.
On the top of our list in summer? Combining some of our favourite things into one amazing adventure: the outdoors and delicious food and drink. Because let's face it, Auckland has to be one of the best places in the world for dining while the air is warm. Here's Concrete Playground's pick of the best summer food & drink adventures in Auckland.
