Box Cafe & Bar

For relaxing pre drinks on the balcony of The Edge at Aotea Square, before your show, Box Cafe & Bar is perfect.

With a superb wine list, you gave access to complementary sparkling water, and they offer an impressive nibbles menu to accompany your alcoholic beverages.

Staff are very friendly and professional. Highly recommended!

Good place for meetings and good food

Great for a pre-show drink! The La Gioiosa prosecco is probably the best value for money (despite the fact that I found they sell the Deutz at the bars inside the theatre for a dollar cheap, grr). The staff definitely know their alcohol and willingly prepare cocktails if you ask. Don't catch them at lunch time though, it gets really busy and it shows in the service. It's definitely a cafe/bar aimed at a theatre crowd, not a proper cafe.

Not the cheapest but a great setting if you're off to see a show at one of the surrounding venues and there's a good choice of food and drinks.

Lovely place to eat, with outdoor seating. Their sweets are delicious as well.
