Are you a new or returning city centre student?  Or - do you live in the city centre?

Well, it's time to discover, or rediscover,  your neighbourhood, meet the people behind the counters, and hear the stories that shape Midtown - all while you enjoy a bite at each stop - just enough to spark your next go-to for when you don’t feel like cooking!

Midtown Bites: Walking Food Tours is all about the exploring spots that many locals love, but some might have missed.

From hole-in-the-wall gems to family-run businesses, join Chow Luck Club led walking food tours for a relaxed, snack-sized stroll through the city centre.

It’s casual, conversational, and all about great food and great people.

Proudly supported by Auckland Council and the city centre targeted rate.
