The Wade Bar & Bistro is a bar and bistro at 2 Tavern Rd in Silverdale, in the Rodney district north of Auckland. It has a 4.1 rating from 640 Google reviews. Its website describes casual dining in the sports bar and more formal dining in the restaurant, with live entertainment, Sky Sports, a pool table, gaming, weddings, private functions and conference catering. It lists all-day deals pairing meals such as green-lipped mussels, fish and chips, BBQ pork ribs or burgers with a house wine or beer. Reviewers mention the pizza, a historic building with a Victorian feel, separate bar and restaurant areas and good service, though one was disappointed on a recent visit.
A good bar with a bistro suits groups with different tastes, since the bar side is relaxed and the restaurant side is calmer. All-day meal deals are good value but check which drinks are included. Match days are lively, so book a table if you want to eat in comfort, and for functions ask early about capacity and menus.
For a meal, a drink or an event in Silverdale, The Wade is a long-standing local venue.
