Barker’s Foodstore & Eatery celebrates first birthday

And just like that on the 20th of September we celebrated our first birthday and what a year it has been!

The support that we have received in the past 12 months has been amazing.

Whether it’s a daily coffee hit, lunchtime meal and yarn or meeting your mates and family for brunch in the weekend, we couldn’t have done it without the support of our local community and wider. We have loved meeting new people daily and building great relationships with our regulars.

Our mission was to bring a taste of Geraldine to Ponsonby, and that’s exactly what we have done. For those that haven’t stumbled across us yet, we can’t wait to invite you in.

Barker’s Foodstore & Eatery is tucked away behind Ponsonby Central, overlooking the greenery of Brown Street Reserve. Barker’s of Geraldine, established in 1969, is a favourite in many Kiwi households and we still produce all our products on the corner of the original family farm to this day.

Our venue is like no other, as we feature our very own Barker's of Geraldine products throughout all our food and beverages, as well as many other delicious ingredients produced in our hometown. Whether it’s a traditional South Island cheese roll, a beef brisket pie or a sweet treat, our talented chefs have crafted our much-loved Barker’s products into the entire menu.

Quench your thirst or add a dollop of something on the side of your dish from our complementary tasting station. We encourage you to feel, taste and connect with our products that will add that finishing deliciousness to your meal. With a retail selection in-store, you can take home your new favourite sauce, chutney or syrup to savour at home, or even a gift box for Christmas or special occasion. We have also just launched a catering service, so reach out to the team and we can discuss your requirements for your next team meeting or event.

Taking your dog out for a coffee date? We are very much a dog friendly venue. We make our own dog treats in-house for your special four-legged friends, so please feel free to bring them along and we will even snap a photo of them for our BARKer’s Wall of Fame.

Next time you’re in Ponsonby, drop in and have a coffee or some brunch and a chat with our friendly team, we love getting to know everyone in our neighbourhood.
