Gather whānau, friends or colleagues for a long Christmas lunch at Auckland Zoo’s iconic Old Elephant House restaurant this year.
Our chefs have taken the stress out of the silly season and have a delectable two-course plated lunch menu, so that you and your guests can relax and unwind over two hours. With a mouth-watering roast leg of lamb*, it’s a guilt-free feast with the Zoo just outside for that long post-lunch walk. We have the little cubs covered too, with a special Christmas menu.
In addition to the two-course lunch, prepare to explore and enjoy the glorious tracks throughout the Zoo at your leisure all day long! If that’s not an early (and unique) Christmas treat, we don’t know what is!
By booking in now, you’ll also be supporting our important wildlife conservation mahi. So, send the message out to the group chat, gather the crew, and make a day of it. (Hot tip: You may even like to organise a Secret Santa for your table and go all out!).
$99 per adult. $41 per child (4-14 years). Zoo entry is included in the Christmas lunch ticket price. Auckland Zoo Members receive 15% off with valid I.D.
Proudly part of the Auckland Council whānau
