Degree Gastrobar is a popular and vibrant bar over looking the many super yachts moored in Auckland’s Viaduct Harbour.

Our casual atmosphere enables you to come down and enjoy a few pints of beer or glasses of wine whilst watching the sun set. If you want to stay a bit longer, we provide an a la carte menu that will satisfy everyone’s needs.

Our house speciality is stonegrill dining – a unique experience where your food is served to you sizzling on a hot volcanic rock. If this doesn’t tickle your fancy we also serve delicious meals that range from pizzas to mouthwatering seafood dishes.

For private Functions, check out Degree’s private mezzanine floor: “The Mercury Room”. Complete with its own private bar, this upstairs space is available for corporate functions, family events, birthdays, or cocktail parties.

Other areas of the restaurant & bar are also for hire, whether it be an outdoor BBQ style event, or the Front Bar for relaxed birthday drinks.

I really enjoyed my visit to degree. I went during lunch and sat on the deck and enjoyed the fantastic view of the viaduct. The staff were friendly and willing to accommodate one of our gluten free diners (definitely a positive!)

The food was great- I would definitely recommend their stone grill options, very tasty and something different to try. If your wanting good food with a great view for a reasonable price- this is definitely the place

A truly vibrant funhouse in an excellent location. From the minute you walk in you are greeted by the friendly staff who will pamper to your every need. The food menu is amazing with plenty of choice although I found it hard to get past the delicious squid and the “to die for” steak served on a hot stone. If you only ever visit one place in Auckland it has to be here just for the steak alone. My only criticism is that I can’t get back there soon enough !!

Degree is an excellent place to dine. The 500g stone grill steak is amazing and the largest steak around for a good price.

The service is friendly and fast. Usually in and out very quickly and the staff are happy to accommodate that.

Have visited with friends from out of town who also raved about their visit and keep wanting us to take them back.

This place is one of my favourites in Auckland.

My family and I made a reservation on last New year’s eve and eventhough we had to wait a bit for the food to arrive (which is totally undersatndable due to the full capacity)I must say that the overall food and service experience was memorable and will definitely go back there again soon. We can’t afford to visit too often because of the prices but it is definitely worth saving for!

Thank you very much for your comments R.K. I’m glad to hear you had a great time with us. If you are on a budget try one of our special offer nights or maybe an early bird sitting. Hopefully it won’t be so long before we see you! Thanks again.

I was in degree last night and had a lovely experience. Although it was freezing we sat outside. The waiter came straight over and moved a heater towards us so we wouldn’t get cold. Our drinks were delivered promptly and our food was delicious. 5 Big stars to Sean our waiter. You really are a credit to degree. We’ll be back soon.

I ate at Degree tonight and really enjoyed the atmosphere, the food and the staff really made my night. Shame I was too late to take advantage of their martini special though. They sounded great!!

Degree customer service is ok I have been there 3 times and the first 2 times were ok food average customer service ok. (I go back to degree coz I hope that it would get better and I like the location) last time I went everything was bad. Had seafood chowder just tasted like white sauce with a couple of mussels thrown in. Chowder should be cooked with seafood to get that taste! Will never go back to degree again thought 3rd time lucky but clearly not

Hi Gina-thank you for taking the time to come and visit us as well as give feedback-I am disappointed to hear that you were so unhappy with your last visit, especially as the seafood chowder is such a popular dish. If you could contact me on our email address…    More »

This is my favourite place in New Zealand-my husband and I have been travelling around New Zealand for a couple of months now and this is definately the best place we’ve been. Really good location, the menu has so many options and the staff were very helpful with all our traveller questions! We’ll definately return when we go back to Auckland.

Highly recommend the stone-grill! The steak is so good! Good value too.

We also had the buffalo wings which were really yummy.

Really good service and nice booths.

The Stonegrill here is the best experience imaginable. Gret to see the Chef at Degree never compromises on the meat quality like they seem to at Hot Rock back home in Australia and the stone seems to stay hotter for longer with no splatter. I love coming to Auckland on busines and always bring my customers here for lunch. They told me today that the Degree group have 3 other Stonegrill restuarants in Auckland and I hope to visit them all over the next few weeks while I am tripping back and forth across the Tasman.

I went to Degree on Thursday for Dinner and I had a delicious meal. I had a steak on the Stone grill – which meant I cooked my steak at the table on a hot volcanic rock. I had never done this before, but it was the best steak I have ever eaten and apparently this is a very healthy way to eat, which made me even happier. The staff were also very nice and the ambiance of the place was nice and relaxing. Highly recommended!

What a fabulous experience at Degree!
Magnificent food, service & venue.
As part of a group of 20 to 30 people, I found the service to be very friendly, professional and organised. The excellent waitress was very accomodating when we had about 8 extra people suddenly turn up.
We were seated in a separate area upstairs on a mezzanine floor where a balcony overlooks the rest of the restaurant.
I thoroughly enjoyed the smoked salmon quesadilla that I ate, beautifully flavoured with dill and sour cream. The menu was full of variety that managed to cater for everyone from vegans to meatlovers to gluten free family members. Also, when my sister’s wine took quite a long time to come, the waitress said there would be no charge (without any prompting) – now THAT’S great customer service! I highly recommend this place.
