Twofold

Twofold is Auckland‘s newest little brewpub located in the heart of Parnell. A place for workmates, families, friends, and tank beer.
Founded by Bernard Neate and John Austin. John, whose fascination with beer began whilst ‘home brewing’, where he says he ‘found joy in observing the process and thehistory behind it.’ John sees beer as more than just a beverage; it‘s a tool for bringing people together, and he wants TwoFold to be a part of that tradition.
Simply put, Beer, although relatively simple, is a beverage has been bringing people together since the beginning of civilization. Ultimately, Twofold want to be part of this narrative and use their brewpub as a space for people to get together and have a great time.

Rhu
235 Parnell Road
If you’ve not yet heard of Rhu and consider yourself a ‘foodie’ you may have to reconsider your status.
Sitting in a sun drenched spot and new to Parnell Rhu is the brainchild of Tushar Grover, ex Pasture Chef. Rhu is an all - day ‘fine dining’ eatery, offering technically complex food that is divinely simple and uncomplicated. Classic dishes we know and love with both flavour and finesse.
Rhu has a small team of chefs and bakers who, at the base of it all love food, which is what drove them into that space. They are all about simple, well - executed food and flavours. From rustic bread to vibrant salads and raw seafood. Their coffee, sourced from Havana in Wellington, paired with a cutting - edge Slayer machine, promises a unique experience also.
Rhu is a ‘must add to your dining experience immediately’ Parnell spot.
