About Windross House Restaurant

About Windross House Restaurant

Windross House is a restaurant set in a gracious historical villa at Cockle Bay, in Auckland's eastern bays near Howick. The house sits on a tranquil beach-front reserve and features a sun-drenched wrap-around verandah, giving it a period character and a relaxed seaside setting a short distance from the Howick village.

The kitchen offers an Italian-style menu with European influences, supported by a comprehensive wine list that spans both local and imported wines. The venue is fully licensed and has ample parking.

Functions and events

Windross is a popular venue for special occasions as well as everyday dining, and is available for private functions, weddings, birthdays and anniversaries. A rear garden is well suited to pre-dinner drinks and canapés. For event organisers seeking a characterful, heritage-villa setting in East Auckland for a private lunch, dinner or celebration, Windross House is a distinctive option; confirm capacities and function packages directly with the restaurant.
