The Verdict
Ooh la la! Petit Bocal has brought Sandringham its very own slice of France. Meaning ‘little jar’ in French (doesn’t have the same ring to it in English, huh?), this dinky Auckland bistro is known for its buttery, flaky pastries, rustic brunches, and a gorgeous dinner menu, dotted with French-inspired fare.
True Parisian, Matt Gosset, is at the helm, so you can be sure you’ll treated to legitimate French cuisine. Try JP’s marinated sardines—Matt’s dad’s fave breakie, served with a soft boiled egg, and baguette soldiers. They’ve also got some pretty funky coffee art going on.

Bistro Saine
Wander down the cobblestones of Saint Patrick’s Square and you might happen upon the luxurious first floor of newly-built Hotel Indigo, housed in a restored heritage building. You can enter through the other side too—the Albert Street entrance blending into the concrete jungle as if it was always there (just look for the elegant Bistro Saine font out front).
Takapuna Surf Club
When you hear the words surf club, what comes to mind? I think of ice cream, pizza, and Alf Stewart (I haven't watched Home & Away in years, but I understand the Summer Bay Surf Club is still standing. Poor old Mr. Stewart, I'm not so sure).
