Guidebook for Auckland
Food Scene
One of my favourite brunches in the city - make sure you go early because their breakfast finishes at 12pm and it gets pretty busy on weekends. My personal favourite is the Bacon Hock Eggs Benny.

Hands down one of my favourite burger spots in Auckland. Hidden amongst the brick buildings in Osborne Lane, Burger Burger is always humming with activity. There is ample seating, or you could get your order takeaway. My go-to's are the classic beef burger (with NZ grass-fed patty) and banana split.
