The Engine Room

In 2006, after a year of looking, we finally found a beautiful old post office in Northcote point to house our dream of a neighbourhood bistro. Having spent our entire working lives in the hospitality industry working for other restaurateurs in New Zealand and for many years overseas, we felt that it was time for us to create a restaurant of our own, back home

• A place where we could share our passion for hospitality in a fun and friendly environment. Twenty years on, many awards later, a host of customers and staff we now consider to be a part of our restaurant family, The Engine Room still remains our home.
