COFFEE/BREAKFAST/LUNCH/DRINKS/DINNER

Located in the heart of Auckland CBD’s business district, Hugo’s Bistro offers true all-day dining, from early morning coffee and inspired lunch service, through to afternoon Aperitivo with friends and sophisticated, European-inspired evening fare.

Beautiful ingredients are simply but thoughtfully prepared over our open charcoal fire, with a lighter style of classical cooking made with exceptional New Zealand produce.

Our historic Shortland Street dining room blends luxury and subtlety, with spots perfect for a morning perch for exceptional coffee and cosy nooks for intimate dinners.

ALFIE INGHAM, HEAD CHEF

Originally from England’s north, Alfie joined the Hugo’s team in 2019 after being inspired by The Continent’s easy elegance and timeless approach to good food and good people.

He creates modern takes on bistro classics, with a focus on seasonality and ethically-sourced ingredients mixed with innovative ideas and flourishes.

Paris’ L’Ami Jean bistro was the restaurant that changed cooking for Alfie – it was loud, no nonsense and tremendous fun, serving a modern take on traditional French bistro food. This experience inspires his menu at Hugo’s Bistro.
