As all IT people know, we have a couple of foods we hold close to our hearts, one of those is sausage rolls.

Does anyone know where to get a decent lot of these, already cooked etc., so from a bakery, preferably delivered, but pick would work if close to Shortland Street.

I thought I'd bring a treat in for the team since we've been under the pump a bit.

Looking forward to the answer to this one - most of the ones I have encountered in the last 10 years leave a lot to be desired in the 'sausage meat' area!

Cranksky (spelling?) sausage rolls from Pavilion cafe under the Vero tower.

Those frozen ones from the supermarket always go down well at our work. Got an oven at work? Can't beat em, especially with a big bowl of tomato sauce.  Gone in seconds....

Ronnies on the corner of Customs and Hobson streets do a reasonable sausage roll, fairly traditional bakery fare.

Unless support for the helicopter's operating system is no longer provided?! ;-)

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I might have to go for a walk around and do some taste testing ;) 

"Market research".


Glad to hear the one right under Vero is good though - will definitely have a look!

Jones the Grocer on the viaduct, near Latitude 37 apts do a chickpea sausage roll. Actually very good! Just the viaduct price tag that spoils it...




The little things make the biggest difference.

Check out the O'Connell St Deli, by far the tastiest sausage rolls I've found in the Shortland St area.
