About Motor City Kitchen

Where the bold flavours of Detroit meet the fresh ingredients and quality produce of New Zealand.

Welcome to Motor City Kitchen — where the bold flavours of Detroit meet the fresh ingredients and quality produce of New Zealand.

Our passion is simple: create unforgettable Detroit-style hot sub sandwiches using premium ingredients, unique recipes, and authentic flavours inspired by one of America’s greatest food cities. Every sandwich is freshly prepared to order with quality meats, crisp salads, house-made sauces, and perfectly toasted rolls, delivering the perfect balance of texture and flavour.

Whether you’re craving our signature crispy chicken, classic Detroit cheesesteak, smoky shrimp, pulled pork, or fresh fish sandwich, every bite is made to satisfy.

"We're more than just sandwiches."

Start your morning with barista-crafted coffee and a selection of fresh cabinet food before returning later in the day for our signature menu, including crispy garlic butter fries, classic fries, and flavour-packed chicken wings.

At Motor City Kitchen, we believe great food starts with fresh ingredients, generous portions, and genuine hospitality.
