Perch Britomart - Auckland

Our new favourite Dumpling place! Great service (I think the waitress was called nicole, but not sure), we had pork and shrimp dumplings, fish sambal and coconut, tofu shiitake and chinese chives and banoffee dumplings... each of them amazing! And the banoffee (sweet) ones where a real surprise!! We had a few cocktails including xuxu martini, rosemary margarita, harajuku dreaming and José flip, great combinations, my favourite was the xuxu martini, seconded by José flip if you can enjoy egg on your cocktails. Thank you guys fot the great experience!

Spotted a write up in Denizen that said we should revisit this quirky little dumpling and cocktail house. Not disappointed! We chose to sit outside under the heaters and enjoyed some people watching : Food wise; No1. The Duck Rolls come in three and our very friendly and thoughtful waitstaff Leine asked if we would like to add a fourth so glad we did. They were delicious. The photo shows three had already eaten one by the time I took the photo! No 2. the Sichuan cold Noodles so much flavour and an excellent contrast to the hot dishes. No 3. Prawn and Pea Shoot Dumplings perfectly cooked accompanied by a delicious XO Chilli sauce No 4: Beef and Kimchi Dumplings not quite to my tastes Left the Impossible Pork wontons until next visit Drinks Smokey Bandit cocktail Loved the presentation of the smoking cinnamon cigar tasted pretty good too! Lady of the Lake cocktail it was ok but would try something else next visit Catalina Sounds Chardonnay excellent Villa Wolf Pinot Blanc also perfect for the one with the sweeter palate Overall delicious after work dinner in a very warm and inviting atmosphere. The service was prompt, we ordered as we went so we could space the dishes. $150 for 2 cocktails, 2 wines, and 4 dishes. Highly recommend. Living in the city we are spoilt for choice but this one is a keeper we will definitely be back soon, even on a rainy night :

Hands down the best dumplings in Auckland. Affordable prices from $10-$12 bucks a stack with a good drinks selection and cozy atmosphere. Must try both dessert dumplings!

Great fun place to enjoy dumplings and cocktails. We have been here a few times. This time we went around 7pm, It was pretty busy but not a big place and very popular. Great place to start the night with some food and drinks. Make sure you order the duck dumplings, (if still on the menu). Great place to go with a group and or a couple experience, right in the heart of Britomart, put on your bucket list.

Quite a small menu but it has everything you need at a dumpling bar. The duck hoisin dumplings are AMAZING. We also tried the fish, sambal and coconut dumplings which were a nice variant to the usual dumpling flavours. We hadn't ordered prawn dumplings but they somehow were included with our order and they just let us have them for free! We tried both the dessert dumplings; chocolate banoffee. Both so so good but the chocolate dumpling was a definite winner. The decor and vibe of the restaurant is really good and the staff are amazing. I will definitely be going back.
