Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Great setting. Attentive staff and great small dishes. Pizza is a miss for us, not great combination and not enough filling. But otherwise we are definitely going back"
"Is there anything better than Little Creatures on a sunny day? I think not! Between what seems like a new menu (from which everything we tried was delicious), their gluten free fryer making it safe for us coeliacs to eat fried chicken and fries (yum), and the breeze coming off the water as we looked out at blue skies and boats bobbing on the ocean, this was such a fabulous way to kick off the evening."
"Absolutely loved our visit to Little Creatures Brewery in Hobsonville Point! It’s one of those places that probably doesn’t even need another glowing review because it’s already so well-known and popular, but honestly, it’s easy to see why. The setup is just so well thought out—especially for families. The indoor play area is a game-changer. There are so few places in Auckland with anything like it, and it makes such a difference when dining out with kids. It’s genuinely an inclusive, welcoming space, and the best part is, you’re not sacrificing great food and drinks just to keep the little ones entertained. The menu is fantastic, with plenty of great options for both kids and adults. We had an exceptional time—from the atmosphere to the service, everything was spot on. And I have to say, the frozen margaritas were a dream! So glad they have them on the menu. Oh, and the affogato? Absolutely out of this world. Whether you’re going for a family meal, catching up with friends, or just looking for a solid spot to enjoy some great beer and food, Little Creatures is well worth the drive. Love, love, love what they do. Highly recommend!"
"Great location with a good choice menu.. plenty outside seating esp you have your furry friend. Staff are friendly. I had the raw fish crudo.. the fish was tender and presentation was great however a bit to much oil and lacked citus flavour of orange to match the orange segments i just it a bit bland. Had the macs 2.5 beer and nagroni drink which was different but nice. Overall i would come again"
"I had a very enjoyable lunch here. I had a tour group with a very specific schedule and everything went exactly to plan. Our group arrived to be seated at a reserved table and all the food appeared seconds after we sat. Thanks to Kim for arranging and Brett on the day for your service:)"
"Cold delicious beer, tasty pizza, views of the water, great service. What more do you need? Another Little Creatures pale ale perhaps. One more and we're staying."
"Large bar /restaurant venue situated near the water at Hobsonville Point. Indoor / outdoor dining. Casual Pub style meals. Great for large groups as several large tables. We had salads all crisp, fresh & tasty. Quiet when we visited for lunch."
"Mother’s Day was made special by having balloon and face painting artists on hand to entertain the little ones. The play area is lacking though which is disappointing for a family-friendly establishment. Service was good and so was the food. Vegetarian burger needed a bit more texture."
