Went to Tyler St Garage for my partners friends birthday drinks.Commenting on the decor- it was its modern flavour of hip,chic look with darkened lighting( perhaps to match the 'garage' look) but was airy and cold with its high roofs. Didnt order any food so cant comment on that, however can certainly say the service there is none next to kiwi hospitality(and having worked in this industry for sometime I certainly dont rate the service here- hence 1 star!!) As you'd expect to pay for a beer- $9-10 for only a tap beer! I tried a trusty macs hopper. Not bad, cold and had the fizz still. 2nd beer I thought I'd try would be there house beer named after the bar (Me thinking that they brew their own but most likely they've just stolen someone elses for a shite beer) I returned it having only taken a couple of sips- it was sickly sweet like old DB and it was flat in comparison to my last. I asked the bartender but he refused to believe it was flat and warm- didnt even try it let alone get his manager, who I asked to see. So rather than get anal about it i bought another macs and thought i would try to like it later rather than waste it. In the end I couldnt bear it and my mates said the same so i went to approach the bar manager, he didnt even acknowledge me or apologize that their product was not satisfactory for me, the customer! He couldnt even explain why he couldnt refund me or even offer me another beer. ( Note- that both bar staff couldnt speak english clearly if not at all well) I asked to take the beer away but he even bloody refused to take it and told me to put it over on the side of the bar where other empties were- like i worked there! Idiot! After that fiasco we were all luckily leaving ( in our limo btw) and taking our money elsewhere. I word of advice for the owner, Train your staff to be hospitable and courteous!!!

Had lunch at Tyler Street Garage today - the potato on the gorgonzola and potato pizza was raw. Not good.

had Sunday lunch , had to ask if it was open , went up stairs staff sitting around not a good look . food was good ,drinks slow coming,
the staff looked like they had a hard night, did not come back to table to asked if our meals were ok or more drinks.
Tyler St Garage should stick to evening only.

Tyler Street Garage is highly overrated. Basically just a concrete shed which Im sure is supposed to be part of its novelty however I personally find it unappealing. Sat upstairs which was the only nice place to sit in the venue....that was until it rained and discovered there is no really effective shelter from the rain up there. Staff at Tyler St were friendly enough but won't be back.

Been along to a few of the rugby screenings at Tyler Street garage. Real party atmosphere and the pleasing thing is that they don't pack the place out too much - it's still nice and relaxed. Good to see Tyler st garage isn't going down the cash grab route and protecting their product!

Awesome rooftop bar although service isn't always super efficient. The menu at Tyler st Garage is also pretty good for pub grub with some interesting options.

Nice venue but I'd have to say a little dissapointed in my undersized $17 'wild boar' gourmet hotdog. Would have got a better hot dog from a takeway bar. Won't be eating at Tyler Street Garage again.

The bouncers got trigger happy about 1am and were overly aggressive. Tyler St Garage is the worst place in Britomart.

The Tyler St Garage doorman are doing their job. They have to protect the license coming up to the rugby, so anyone who is playing up should definitely be asked to leave. This makes the experience better for everyone who is there and having a good time, not having to worry about people trying to tarnish a great bar! - Report
