Eating in Waitakere
Many types of food can be had in West Auckland. Great North Road, which runs through a lot of Waitakere, has many establishments offering food. New Lynn has many cafes and sandwich bars.
Kelston doesn't really have anything special except a Halal butcher.
Glendene is a good place to head to find excellent kebabs, roast dinners and lovely homemade pizza, as well as gourmet burgers(expensive but good) and a regular fish and chip shop, the bakery behind the shops has the best chicken sandwiches out west and the best chocolate chip shortcake caramel slice ever its $1.50 and simply devine. Last stop on Great North Road is Henderson. There is a Thai takeaway (main & rice $10-13), a vegetarian Vietnamese restaurant at the far end. Up by the bridge and the bus stop is another fish and chip shop.
Te Atatu Peninsula, has the only 24 hour kumara (sweet potato) chips and roast chicken in Waitakere.
Hadads on the main road has chicken, fish and chips and kebabs. Further past the round about there is an excellent ice cream parlour where a double scoop of locally made ice cream will cost about $2.20, 5 scoops around $3.70, milkshakes $3. These should be taken in the car and then head down to the beach (2 mins away). You can then sit in the car or walk around the reserve. This looks back un-interrupted across the harbour to the city, which on a Sunday day is very beautiful.
