Fernz Restaurant

Okay, so I am a wee bit late in getting this up ..... but better late than never!

Saturday 31st March, Miss PJ celebrated a birthday.  Being a lady of delectable taste, she gathered The Ferry Girls together for lunch at the local Fernz Lodge.  Located at Verrans Corner and set amongst a backdrop of native bush, six Ferry Girls sampled the modest but tasty menu and also sampled a delicious drop from the wine list.

Paprika Calamari Salad, prices at $16.50 was enjoy by Miss D2.  The portion size was perfect for lunch and the dish was tasy.  Rating: 3 / 5
Princess J order a Steak Toastie with fries ($18.50) and thoroughly enjoyed it.  Rating: 3 / 5
Lady L sampled a chicken salad ($17.00), declaring it delicious.  Rating: 3 / 5
Birthday Girl Miss P ordered and enjoyed the Steak Toastie, rating: 3.5 / 5
Darling Miss D order Haloumi Salad and recommended it to the table.  Rating: 3.5 / 5
Amazing Miss A2 (not to be confused with Miss A who was otherwise engaged), also order the Steak Toastie.  Rating 3 / 5

Overall all the Food was rated 3 / 5 - while the menu is modest, it caters something for everyone at a reasonable price.  The food was nicely presented and from ordering to delivery of the food was prompt and there were no longing glances at kitchen wondering where the food was.

Service was rated 3 / 5 - attentive but without being in your face.  Quick to take the orders and clear away the dishes.  Friendly service that you would experience at any cafe.

Ambience and Location - both rated 4 / 5.  You would never know you were sitting in the middle of a suburb.  There was no city noise, only the quiet calls of native birds and wildlife.  With a gorgeous view over bush, the restaurant is a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of busy Auckland life.

Value for Money: rated at 4 / 5.  with the average price of lunch dishes being about $18, it was great value for money. 

Recommend to Others: Yes

Overall Rating: 3.5 / 5

Fernz Lodge is a great spot to go to for a quiet and quick Saturday lunch, situated in a great location.

Delicious food, good service, great location, great friends - what more could a Ferry Girl want?
