Fresh off a strong Auckland debut, Roll’d has opened its second New Zealand store — this time at Westfield St Lukes in Mount Albert. The new location follows hot on the heels of the brand’s first Kiwi store at Sylvia Park, confirming that Australia’s leading Vietnamese fast-casual brand is wasting no time building out its footprint here.
For diners on Auckland’s western isthmus, it means the rice paper rolls, bánh mì and phở that drew crowds at Sylvia Park are now within easy reach at one of the city’s busiest shopping centres.
A second store, right on schedule
When Roll’d entered New Zealand, Westfield St Lukes was always next on the list. The brand named it as a confirmed second site from the outset, and that plan has now come to life. It’s a notable signal: a brand doesn’t lock in its second location this quickly unless the first is performing.
The St Lukes opening keeps Roll’d’s New Zealand rollout firmly on track. With Sylvia Park established and St Lukes now trading, attention turns to the further locations expected as the network grows.
Where to find Roll’d St Lukes
The new store sits inside Westfield St Lukes at 80 St Lukes Road, Mount Albert, Auckland — one of the big three shopping centres in Auckland’s western suburbs and a high-traffic, lunch-hungry setting where Roll’d thrives.
The centre is well connected by public transport, with multiple bus routes stopping on St Lukes Road and the nearest train station at Morningside, making it an easy stop whether you’re shopping, working nearby or just chasing a fresh Vietnamese lunch.
What’s on the menu
The St Lukes store serves the same fresh, made-to-order Vietnamese menu that built Roll’d’s reputation across the Tasman. Expect crowd favourites including:
– Rice paper rolls — the fresh, light dish the brand is named for
– Bánh mì — Vietnamese baguettes with fillings like roast pork and crackling
– Phở — fragrant noodle soup in beef, chicken, and mushroom-and-tofu options
– Bún — vermicelli noodle salads, from lemongrass wagyu beef to BBQ chicken
– Group feeds — sharing bundles built to feed four to six
Everything leans on the brand’s hallmarks: fresh herbs, clear broths, lean proteins and quick, customisable service designed for a fast lunch without cutting corners on flavour.
The story behind Roll’d
For anyone new to the brand, Roll’d was founded in Melbourne in 2012 by Bao Hoang, Ray Esquieres and Tin Ly, built around Vietnamese family recipes passed down through generations. It has since grown to more than 125 stores, with New Zealand marking its first market outside Australia.
The New Zealand rollout is being led by Matthew Holdich in partnership with Mammoth Brands, the hospitality group run by co-CEOs Duane Dalton and Chris Henderson — the team also behind Pita Pit, EGG’D, Bowl’d and Tuckr. Menu quality across all markets is overseen by Executive Chef Jerry Mai, well known from MasterChef Australia.

Why two stores, fast, matters
Opening a second store this soon after launch tells you something about momentum. Roll’d entered a fast-casual category that’s still growing in New Zealand even as the wider hospitality sector navigates tougher trading conditions. Fresh, affordable, quick Vietnamese food has clearly found an audience — and St Lukes gives the brand a second high-footfall stronghold to build on.
For Auckland diners, the practical takeaway is simpler: there’s now another spot to grab a fresh bánh mì or a steaming bowl of phở, this time on the western side of the isthmus.
