507 Bar and Eatery

About 507 Bar and Eatery

507 Bar & Eatery is a modern European restaurant and bar on Sandringham Road in Sandringham, Auckland, founded to bring an authentic Middle Eastern and European dining experience to the city. The kitchen blends age-old European and Mediterranean recipes with fresh, local New Zealand ingredients — dishes the team describes as a balance of flavour, artistry and refinement, filling what they see as a unique gap in Auckland's food scene.

The menu spans the whole day. Breakfast and all-day brunch cover the classics — egg benedict, brioche french toast, a loaded big breakfast that can be made vegan, avocado on toast and a smoked salmon bagel. Light bites arrive after noon, the lunch menu runs from 12 to 4pm with smashed burgers, fish & chips, steak and Greek salads, pasta is available after 12, and dedicated dinner and drinks menus carry the kitchen through to late night.

The room pairs European elegance with a relaxed, welcoming feel — luxurious yet comfortable, suited to intimate dinners as much as lively gatherings with friends, family or colleagues. It's family-friendly with options for children, offers private dining and event options supported by a dedicated event menu, and takes reservations online or by phone.

507 Bar & Eatery: Middle Eastern & European Dining on Sandringham Road, Auckland

On Sandringham Road in Auckland, 507 Bar & Eatery was founded with a simple ambition: to bring an authentic Middle Eastern and European dining experience to the city, serving from morning until late at night. The kitchen's style is modern European — age-old recipes given an innovative twist with fresh, local New Zealand ingredients — and the menu moves easily from a big breakfast through shared plates, lunch and pasta to a proper dinner.

From breakfast until late night

507 covers the full day. Breakfast and brunch lean on the classics: eggs benedict with poached eggs, wilted spinach and hollandaise over ciabatta or a hash brown; brioche french toast with coffee mascarpone, ice cream, caramelised banana and bacon; and the big breakfast — eggs your way, streaky bacon, sausage, grilled tomato, pesto mushrooms, potato rosti and toasted sourdough — which can be made fully vegan. Lighter starts include avocado on toast and a smoked salmon bagel with cream cheese and capers.

From midday the board widens. Light bites are available after 12: garlic ciabatta bread with beetroot hummus, vegetarian and pork & chive dumplings, paneer tikka skewers, karaage and Korean fried chicken bites, mushroom arancini and a trio of sliders. The lunch menu, served from 12 to 4pm, adds smashed burgers, beer-battered fish & chips, a 200g sirloin with green peppercorn sauce, Greek salads and pasta — with a dedicated dinner menu plus separate lunch and dinner drinks lists carrying things into the evening.

What the kitchen is known for

The house signature is the 507 hand-made smashed beef burger: a brisket-mince patty with grilled onion, McClure's pickles, tomato, Swiss cheese and the kitchen's secret sauce on a potato bun, served with fries. There's a vegan twin built on an Impossible or vegetable pattie with vegan cheddar, and a karaage chicken burger for the fried-chicken faithful.

The Mediterranean side of the menu shines in the Greek lamb skewers and Greek lamb salad — grilled lamb fillet with beetroot, mesclun and tzatziki — while the sharers board ranges from pan-Asian karaage to Italian mushroom arancini. Seafood runs from that morning salmon bagel to grilled shrimp and beer-battered fish & chips, and steak & chips anchors the heartier end of the lunch menu.

The room and the mood

The interior aims for European elegance with modern sophistication — a warm, inviting space the team describes as luxurious yet comfortable, made for everything from intimate dinners to lively gatherings with friends, family or colleagues. It's family-friendly, with options on the menu for children, and guests regularly single out the service, calling 507 a blend of elegance and comfort where the staff make you feel right at home.

Events, groups and gifts

Beyond everyday dining, 507 hosts private dining and events — birthdays, corporate functions and special celebrations — supported by a dedicated event menu. Gift vouchers are available through the website, and anyone planning a gathering is invited to get in touch and talk through the details.
