CITY - WYNYARD QUARTER
Situated in Auckland city centre and directly on the waterfront, we are incredibly proud to be an individually owned and operated, free trade bar and restaurant, with the same owners from day one. The heated and covered wrap-around outdoor terrace ensures the view can be enjoyed whatever the season.
Less than 8% of New Zealand's venues are able to call themselves "free trade". It means we are able to stock the best products in the market, based on their quality, and in turn support the smaller businesses, like ourselves, rather than selling what a large brewery has instructed us to sell.
