Vic Road Wine bar and cellar
Come and visit us at our Wine Bar!
Harriet, Ian and the team at Vic Road Kitchen are very excited to have a new addition to the family in the form of the newly opened Vic Road Wine Bar and Cellar.
The idea had been in the pipeline for a few years but were waiting on the perfect spot and when the space formally occupied by Thompson’s Shoes came up, they couldn’t resist jumping in, despite the uncertain times that Covid was causing the hospitality industry. The space had operated as a shoe shop in one form or another for over 80 years and many customers remember visiting the store as children to get fitted for school shoes. The renovation idea was simple – reuse what we could and maintain or heighten the existing features of the space. This meant re-purposing all the old shoe shop shelving and original wood wall planking, as well as exposing old existing brickwork, uncovering the original stained glass windows at the front, and of course, transforming the former patchy grass area into a stylish European-esque hedged courtyard. This became a Covid lock-down project and we must acknowledge the design input and many hours put in by Paul (father, father-in-law, shareholder).
The venue is unique in that it not only operates as a bar serving up an ever changing array of interesting wines by the glass and extensive beer range but also offers a retail option for customers to purchase wine to take-away. And if nothing on the wine list suits, then pick a bottle from the shelves and enjoy, as all our retail wines are available to drink in house.
“We wanted to create an environment where wine novices and wine buffs alike could feel comfortable discussing and choosing wine without judgement”. This sentiment will be carried through in their regular wine tasting events, of which the first one was held in March, and will be fun, informal affairs suited to wine enthusiasts of any level..
Retail shop
Come and browse our extensive collection of carefully curated New Zealand and International wines and pick a bottle or two to take away.
Our knowledgable staff can help guide you to a new varietal or region you may not have tried, or simply grab a bottle of your go-to favourite.
BAR AND EATERY
Come and enjoy a glass of wine from our ever changing glass pour wine list. We choose a selection of interesting New Zealand and International wines for you to choose from and change these regularly so there is always something new to try.
Wine not your thing? Don’t worry, our beer selection is also pretty great (both tap and bottle/can options) or we also serve up a small range of classic cocktails or non-alcoholic options.
And if you are hungry, we can solve that problem too! We have a great tapas menu including warmed olives, house-made hummus, pates, terrines and dips, tortillas, grilled vegetables, octopus as well as cheese and charcuterie boards. These dishes can be a simple snack to go with drinks or combined to form a substantial meal. The menu changes frequently depending on the seasonal produce arriving daily.

It all started when…
Vic Road Kitchen opened the doors of its beautiful brickwork building in historic Devonport in March 2018. Executive Chef Ian Shields and ‘partner in wine’ Harriet Shields have combined their extensive knowledge and experience, delivering delicious rustic Mediterranean fare and a curated wine offering which has gained an immediate following with both locals and diners from outside the waterfront suburb.
The Vic Road Kitchen menu changes weekly reflecting a commitment to showcasing fresh ingredients from artisan suppliers and ‘as available’ seasonal proteins.
.We are inspired by local produce, lively flavours and by simple delicious plates of food. Our food is focused on using fresh, seasonal New Zealand produce in a Mediterranean style (both flavours and way of eating). The menu at Vic Road Kitchen will change frequently to reflect our commitment to showcasing produce at its prime. We mirror this concept with a ever changing, boutique wine list.
We couldn't be happier with the beautiful old building in Devonport that oozes charm though warm brickwork, soft lighting and the historic feel of the place. We are excited to tempt locals with our home-made pastas, fresh seafood and meat dishes. Simple but delicious.
