We chose The Brigham for my 40th Birthday and it did not disappoint at all! Raj and his team were so helpful, friendly and professional. All our guests commented on how lovely the setting was especially the garden area..this part in particular was fantastic for the children that we had attend as it was a safe and secure space for them to roam and have fun! The food was great and again had some very good response from our guests.
Thank you very much for having us and we will come back again for sure! 5 out of 5!

The Brigham was a good choice to hold our 25th wedding anniversary.
The covered outdoor area provided a relaxing atmosphere with surrounded by greenery.Our guests told us they really enjoyed the Roast Pork with honey glazed crackling, Fresh fish goujons with tartare sauce and of course, the Butter Chicken with basmati rice.
Raj was very helpful with his suggestions on the layout, timings and menu. He was also flexible and took on board our ideas, including a gelato cart. He and his hard-working staff, Amanda and Valentina were quite attentive, friendly and made sure the guests were looked after. The event turned out to be very memorable and meaningful for us.
If you’re looking to book a function , you should have a sit-down with Raj so he could guide you with the process.
Thanks, Team Brigham!

Me and my husband had our wedding at Brigham Creek, and I can not speak higher of everyone involved, the staff were amazing, making it such a stress free evening and taking the image from my mind and transforming it to life, and almost a year later were still getting comments on how amazing the food was. Solid 5 stars on every angle, fantastic service, beautiful grounds and great value.

I had my wedding at the Brigham on November 4th 2017! and the weather wasn't perfect but the whole day was! It rained but they had set up an amazing ceremony undr the marquee and I wouldn't have changed a thin! The staff were so lovely and helpful leading up to the day! Raj is amazing, he came in on the night to help out. Thank you all for making our day so special!!

Cannot thank the Brigham enough for everything they did to make our wedding day as perfect and smooth as it was... from the setup to the food to the staff just everything was amazing. Raj definitely exceeded our expectations and the duty manager on was definitely a huge part to making our day as good as it was. They were so organised and friendly and made sure everything was done how we liked it. Fitting around what we liked and chose. If anyone is looking for a venue to hire I highly recommend without a doubt the Brigham in west Auckland. We can't wait to head back there for a meal as mr & mrs bird :-) thank u guys soo much for everything we truly are over the moon the day was perfect to us just a shame it couldn't last forever �

We had our wedding reception at The Brigham last week Saturday. I don't know where to start, it was so awesome. Raj was so helpful throughout the whole process and didn't say no to any of my requests ( this is coming from a person who is very choosy, fussy and a perfectionist). The venue is so beautiful and the staff is so friendly. Everyone raved about the food and the venue. They definitely deserve more than five stars. I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone who wants to get married here and reception. Such a perfect place for any event. I'm very happy with how things turned out that night and that's because of Raj and his hardworking team. Thank you so much. We will definitely come around for lunch every now and then.

I would like to let everyone know we had a really lovely evening at The Brigham on this date. It was my 65th birthday and there were 25 family members attending from different parts of NZ. Everyone expressed what great food, service and venue we had. The owner could not have been more accommodating, plus I had complete freedom to express my personal wishes for the night. Congratulations Raj for a very fine evening. It made my birthday very special.

I had a birthday celebration gathering for 35 family and friends under the shade sail area, we had the buffet menu which was absolutely delicious, all the guests were blown away with the venue, the staff were really on the ball and could not have been more attentive. Full marks to Raj and his staff, would certainly recommend and also do it all again in the future.

We went to the Brigham for the Clear Water Cove Yacht prize giving.
We rang to book our place for the dinner and were greeted on the phone by Raj who was very friendly and helpful and took our booking... from this point we knew that the yacht club committee had made an excellent decision booking this as the venue for the prize giving!
We arrived early... being yachties we do not like being late! We were greeted by Raj and his waitress, whom took our money for our meal and took our drinks orders. We were very pleasantly surprised at the price of the bottled beer... $7.00 for a beer is cheaper than other local establishments.
Raj's team were amazingly accommodating... they had expected 70 people, however some club members had not made bookings. Nothing was too much hassle for them, they rearranged tables and found more chairs so that our crew could all sit together.
We had a buffet which was a good choice and everyone was very happy with the food and the service.
The staffing of our event was like a well oiled machine... it was perfect... these guys really know what they are doing.
I highly recommend Raj and his team at the Brigham for a meal or to host a party!

We got married here 8 years ago and have been back almost every year since. I was sad to hear that Raewyn had sold the venue but was really pleased with the new owners. 2 of the original staff are still there and the food and service was amazing. Will definitely be going again.

We chose The Brigham, as our wedding venue, out of a few others we found online. They are reasonably priced, with a lovely set up (beautiful outdoor area, for photos). Ceremony and Reception all in one! Not far from the North Shore either. They were available on our wedding date, very responsive and easy to contact. We got together and went through what it was we wanted, we were happy with everything. So easy to deal with. On the day of our wedding, Raj and the team did a great job and as we wished, ceremony, reception went to plan. The food was nice. Very professional, and we are very happy we chose The Brigham. Our guests all loved the venue! Thanks again :)

We were looking for a Cafe nearby and came across The Brigham. Great, this was completely worth it. It was just a simple Brunch and Coffee with the family.
Children loved the grounds and running around in the open spaces. The staff and the Manager/ owner were very accomodating to our needs. The vege breakfast was a lovely choice. Food was fresh and very tasty. We will highly recommend this place. We heard the other tables also talking about the Food and service and were all praises.

31 to celebrate our Golden Wedding Anniversary. Scrumptious buffet luncheon with everything we asked for. There is a choice of buffet menus and prices. The tables were set up divinely with white cloths draped with golden runners and beautiful flower arrangements. This we had not requested so was a wonderful surprise. Raj and his team of waitresses led by the lovely Amanda fell over themselves to make sure everything was as we wanted. We could not have asked for anything more, they were all so accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. They helped to make our special day even more special. This beautiful old villa is set in amazing gardens with lots of room for children to explore and climb the trees if they have had enough of being inside. Also has a lovely marquee if you want to celebrate outside, We would highly recommend this place for any type of celebration, big or small.

This place was so good we went twice while we were in Auckland !
The food was up there with the best I have ever had and that says alot considering I have eaten at many 3 hatted restaurants.
The setting of the restaurant is really nice and after having a good chat with the head chef you can see how passionate he is about his food.
The true highlight was the desserts absolutely amazing !
The in house brownie was devine
Keep up the good work guys amazing restauraunt and we will return for sure.
Lovely Atmosphere
We have been here quite a few times over the years and can say we have never been disappointed. It has changed hands recently and the new owner came out and introduced himself to us, very friendly and has had alot of experience as a chef. I have seen this place decorated for weddings and it looks great, big outside area and nice gardens. I have been here for birthday lunches and have sat outside under the big umbrella style roofing and its been lovely, very relaxing

This is a great place to celebrate with friends and family. We were a group of 20 adults and loved every single moments spend there. Our buffet was carefully prepared and served very well to our taste bud. They were also booked for a wedding on that day but Raj and his team ensured that we get looked after well. Definitely go back...
