Mr Murdoch's — Restaurant in Waitematā

I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the wonderful experience I had at your bar last weekend. I must also address a minor misunderstanding that occurred during my visit.

I sincerely appreciate the vibrant atmosphere of your establishment, and the delightful drinks I enjoyed truly made my evening. However, there was a slight miscommunication on my part when placing my order. I accidentally ordered three servings of snacks, which I failed to convey clearly. I would like to extend my apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.

I am extremely grateful for the exceptional service provided by the bartender on duty that day. She handled the situation with utmost professionalism and kindness. Understanding my mistake, she promptly helped me rectify the order by adjusting the quantity of snacks. her attentive and considerate demeanor truly stood out, making my visit to your bar memorable for all the right reasons.

Once again, I am sorry for any trouble my order confusion might have caused. Please extend my appreciation to the bartender who handled the situation so gracefully. I left your bar with a positive impression and a desire to return soon.

Thank you for maintaining such high standards of service and hospitality. I look forward to visiting your bar again and enjoying another...

WOW. What a breath of fresh (hospitality) air. From the moment we walked in we were greeted by our lovely host, he took us to our reserved table, explained the menu, and was just so welcoming and accommodating.

Just the two of us for this lunch hang, neither of us had dined here before. Some great options on this menu, very straightforward, not complicated, which is nice to see when you're on a quick lunch break, We ordered the pulled pork burger, reuben sandwich, and a (chicken) caesar salad to share, and a beer of the week which was very tasty, super refreshing as it was a scorching hot day! Our food came out in no time, I was actually quite surprised as it was picking up over the lunch hour too. Food portions are super generous, definitely fulfilled these hungry bellies.

Every single team member we interacted with was so friendly, upbeat, attentive to all the little things like filing up water glasses, clearing plates, if we were comfortable etc - and it wasn't overbearing, it was just in a really polite respectful manner. I will happily return here. Well done to the team at Murdoch's - this is the kind of hospitality I miss...

I am still dreaming about that truffle pancetta pizza!

This was probably the best food I’ve had in a long time - pubs these days seem to be outweighing the restaurants/cafes now!

My partner and I were here earlier on in the week. We ordered the Truffle Pancetta Pizza, the beef cheeseburger, pulled pork burger and jalapeño poppers, one coke and one beer.

Everything was sensational! The pizza was so so delish! Highly recommend this pizza if you like cheese and truffle. The burgers were beautiful! The cheeseburger has a nice and refreshing taste to it with the veggies, the pulled pork is soooo tasty! And the fries were beautiful and crunchy!

The jalapeño poppers were delish but they were a bit too spicy for me, I had one and I couldn’t eat anymore 🙈

The service was excellent! And the atmosphere was groovy!

One other thing, they don’t have desserts. However, we just went to Mrs. Higgins after to get us some cookies :))

10/10 we’d go back here again, and again and...
