This was our first visit at 1981. The waitress was very friendly and informed us of the«Specials». I asked if I could non alcoholic version of one of their cocktail’s, she said no problem. We had the garlic cob for Entrée. For Mains, My wife chose the Steak & Kidney pie with mash. I had the sundried tomato and feta cheese stuffed chicken fillet. My wife said it was the best pie she had ever eaten. I really enjoyed the stuffed chicken too. The décor brought back lots of memories.

Nineteen Eighty One is a great local restaurant in Manukau, right opposite the Westfield Shopping Centre. It’s a fairly new establishment in the area, but it’s become a regular hangout for a few beers and very good food. You definitely feel the ’80’s vibe when you’re there, and its always nice to see a little appreciation for that era. Their pizzas are delicious, particularly ‘Rangi’s Hangi’ and ‘Larry the Lamb’. They do a very nice caesar salad and my favourite main has to be the crispy chicken burger with aioli and melted brie– one of the best restaurant burgers I’ve had. They’ve got a good range of ciders and do a few cocktails to quench your thirst. They also serve most of their drinks in 600mL milk bottles, which is a really cool touch. I’d have to say that Nineteen Eighty One is best known for their fortnightly Wednesday quiz nights. The place gets packed and its always a good laugh– there’s even a prize for the team that comes second to last.
