little easy

i cant say i have had the most enthusing dining experiences at little easy, a few times when i have had a burger there its been a bit "all over the show" - too clunky and clumsily plated to make it match my appetite, definitely better to dine on ponsonby road #g1

a few nights ago, i attended my first miss viv’s bitchin’ bingo held at little easy. i was super excited because i have never tried her particular bingo (but have always wanted to), plus i have only ever been to little easy for drinks, so i thought it was a great chance to try out their food, in particular their burgers.

the atmosphere was buzzing when we arrived and eventually, the place was packed – definitely a place to be on a weeknight! the bingo was so much fun, lots of laughs and i highly recommend it. if you are thinking of going, make sure you book ahead as it is very popular and also arrive earlier than the start time for some great pub food and drink!

our waiters throughout the whole night were super friendly and helpful in terms of what to order for drinks and food, which was great. the ‘spiced coffee’ cocktail instantly caught my eye, consisting of appleton’s rum, kahlua, espresso and house spiced syrup. it was a dream – creamy, sweet, bitter and nicely presented. i would definitely recommend this cocktail and i can’t wait to go back and have another one!

little easy has a great burger selection – from a three patty burger, to a vegetarian one, to pulled pork and there is also a lamb option. i couldn’t go past the 100% pulled pork burger filled with ham, swiss cheese, slaw and spicy mayo. the burger, wow! it was huge, juicy, and it had a great kick to it! it was quite filling, so i would recommend sharing it with another person.

others ordered their vegetarian burger, chicken parma, mac n cheese and chicken and waffles. all dishes were tasty and hit the spot.

we also ordered desserts – chocolate fondant with pistachio ice cream, plus three scoops of peanut butter, flat white and banana ice cream. to be honest, the desserts were all a let-down. the fondant was not runny inside and tasted more like a brownie. the ice cream was very average compared to other ice cream places in auckland.

big points to the bingo, the burger, delicious cocktail and of course, little easy for their great hospitality – it was an enjoyable night!!!

sweet, saucy delicacies galore. it's a big and brunty menu, with great portions. excellent service from the friendly staff, and a very short time from order to serve for drinks and food. sit snug inside or out, you'll have a mean feed.

went here on sunday for the $10 burger deal. given that it's branded as 'pub food' and that i have never really thought of little easy as a place to eat (more just a place to stumble into late on friday night) i wasn't expecting very much, but was pleasantly surprised! for $10 i got a burger, fries and small side salad. the burger was good, with an amazing brioche bun and the sides really hit the spot! also, the pub is quite tidy in the light of day and being able to sit outside is nice. recommend for a cheap sunday lunch / hangover cure.

went last night. our first waitress was very friendly. we ordered spiced coffee for drinks and it was good. if anything, it went down a little too well! 🙈
for mains, we ordered chicken and waffles, buffalo wings and caesar salad. they were so yummy! i loved the blue cheese in the salad and the combination of chicken with waffles is just 👍🏼
dessert, we had fondant and creme brûlée. fondant was amazing i wanted more!
unfortunately, creme brûlée was very bad. sugar coating was too thick and the pudding was just cream.....

went here for the burgers but was recommended the wings... and i wasn't disappointed 👌 super fresh herbs and spices, the wings were delicious. burgers were great to, good specials on the weekend for these 🍔😊

i've recently started going to little easy's 'stand up sundays' which is $10 entry for 4 comedians including a headline act. it also happens to be $10 burger night at little easy on sundays (considering they are usually $19 this is a pretty good deal!). they have an extensive list of burgers and it is always a struggle trying to choose. so far i have had the chicken burger and shrimp po boy and sampled the fish and lamb. i'm sure by the end of the stand up sundays season i will have tried them all. the shrimp po boy was the most promising so far and had great flavour but it seemed like the shrimp had been re-heated and wasn't crisp like it should be. you know when deep fried things are microwaved and they become limp and the batter detaches from the meat? it might have been a one-off so i won't rule out ordering it again because i did enjoy, it just could have been better. all burgers are served with a side of shoestring fries. i think one of my favourite things about little easy is the staff. they are all so friendly and helpful and give me good advice when i'm tossing up between two burgers.

i went to little easy with a work group for burgers and bitch'n bingo. the place had a fantastic atmosphere on the night and the bingo is a less mentally taxing version of the pub quiz with a lot more comedy - would recommend. our burgers were all served on time ( hard for a group of 20) nice and hot and extremely tasty.

i like little easy their burgers are quite nice and the fries are delicious.
the slaw is a bit dry. alcohol drinks are alright.
great atmosphere with awesome music! if you enjoy hip hop and rnb also pop music this is the place to be.

update: came here the other week for nibbles!! the outstanding dish was the eggplant dish they were amazing! also had lamb ribs, pork belly wraps, fries, and squid rings.

always a good time here :) great food, awesome atmosphere and wicked staff! even better that it's a late night bar too on the weekends! heaps of daily rituals... this place is too much :)

i've just come here to party and it cranks. even when i'm travelling past there sems to be a que to get in. they have friendly and well presented staff also

came here for lunch on a quiet saturday. greeted instantly and had fantastic service. great drink choice (tried two of the tap beers - very nice) and ordered halloumi and veggie toastie, big labroyesky and a side of onion rings. all absolutely delicious - the fries were outstanding. all full of flavour and felt quite indulgent. just marking down half a point as the food was all pretty greasy. great overall though!

two words; basil daiquiri. good staff, great music, fabulous cocktails! excellent place to go on a friday night for a few drinks and a bowl of great chips. however as it is a bar/club, cocktail orders cease after a certain time. overall a good vibe

as soon as you walk in you are greeted by a member of staff which is nice. went in on a quieter day so was able to have a chat with some of the staff.
their food menu is rather large. easy to satisfy any food craving. 
their portion amount is rather large, but their price matches it. 
i've never been a fan of skinny chips, the ones that are deep fried and can get greasy real easily. 
their burger range is great but their buns came from a frozen batch. wasn't soft or anything. it all fell apart in your hands while eating it which is always disappointing and messy. 
this place is good if you want something easy and relaxing and out with friends.

the place had a great vibe, friendly staff and real good burgers. i ordered the shrimp po' boy and definitely no regrets. worth the $19, fries was good too!
