Comment: Really beaut dining experience, in the original train station building very near Spark Arena Downtown Auckland.
Staff were extremely attentive.
They have really good heating, but suggest you take a jacket in winter.

Comment: After my 7-9PM graduation ceremony at the Spark Arena, my family and I wanted to grab a quick bite and drink before heading home. Since Platform 8 is located within the old train station (apartment), it was deserted by the time we got there. We stuck around because it's such a beautiful setting to take some photos, the staff appeared and told us while they were planning to close up they can still serve us snacks and drinks from the menu.
The food and drinks were lovely. The staff were the best! Such kind and hospitable people. They were great catering to my dietary requirements (even though they were almost closing) and didn't hurry us at all. On top of that, they also brought us a complimentary dessert because it was my graduation ? Thank you for being so so nice. We will be back for dinner.

Comment: Located in an old train station was quite new. At first I was sort of distracted by the echo whenever anyone moved their chair or someone was walking past, but that all went away when a fabulous staff helped us with our drinks and food.
The sliders were kinda disappointing in terms of presentation. But that might be just being nit picky. The mains did take some time to be served, but they tasted great. The vegetables accompanying the meat were generous and was cooked very well. The meat was cooked well and the sauces were just ideal. Not too salty, tangy or sweet. Just hit the spot.

Comment: We were really looking forward to this meal after seeing the beautiful venue. Platform 8 was a disappointment to say the least. The food was bland and the portions were tiny considering the price. The waitress took a long time to take our order even though the restaurant wasn't busy. We were never asked if we wanted more drinks or if we needed anything else. However, the cocktails were great.

Comment: Good area for drinking and dancing, however the setup makes it hard to socialize as there aren't many sitting down areas.

Comment: Love the location.
It's part of the old central rail station and even just being inside the lobby is a real novelty.
An issue with the location is that it has a huge choice and everyone can hear everyone else conversations. A bit unpleasant of an environment if you are going just for dinner.
Food wise, the prawns, grill and lemon curd desert we delicious.
The prices of the meals are a bit steep for the quantity. The rating would be higher if the prices were lower since the food quality was great.
Overall seems more like a place to get drinks and some food to accompany rather than a dedicated dinner location.
