    I was here on the day we moved to the traffic light system. I don't think I'd be visiting again unfortunately. Our drinks order took 40 minutes to arrive. They were brought to us only after multiple reminders and when we were halfway out the door. The music was not per my taste, or anyone there for that matter - sort of a midle eastern makam transitioning to sentimental ballads of sorts to slow pop, with only the DJ seeming to enjoy what he was playing.

    Terrible security, sitting inside for 15 minutes without a drink told I had all of a sudden had had to much to drink… After 3 glasses of wine over two hours that’s targeted. Sorry I didn’t conform to you “ideal” Sitting next to 10-12 people in the same position who didn’t have to go through the same! Stay away!!

    The best place I have been to in Auckland. I can have a beer, eat great food, listen to cool music, bring my dog, be sheltered from the rain AND!!!! have a smoke!!!

    Great vibe. The waiter was very nice and attentive. Unfortunately they claimed to have run out of food before the show started but they allowed us to go out, buy and bring the food back inside… pretty weird but hey 🤷🏾‍♀️ Oohh and the bar tender definitely needs to redo his food hygiene training coz the way he was touching that ice for the cocktail I requested after him touching all surfaces including his clothes was kinda deep 👀 but obv I prayed that the spirit in the drink killed anything off 😭

    The music is very nice but all the drinks are warm.

    The venue is pretty tiny &only takes 70 people for a gig. It's an 'intimate' venue & I really enjoyed Hollie Smith playing live on November 18th. The food nibbles are very good &I had a GREAT Vodka mojito (mohito). 10/10 even the difficulty getting Ponsonby parking wouldn't put me off going back again, and again1

    Great little venue, vibes and staff. Best possible Sunday after on Ponsonby Rd with a wicked live bank playing.

    Nice, chilled bar in Ponsonby!!! Rest for a late night drink, somewhere to just chill and chat with your mates.

    Short stay as traveling with a group on a wine. trail. The wine was excellent, location has a external court yard and was just catching the sun, so quite a lovely time. Decor is really good, staff were friendly and venue including this really clean. Would come back for a longer visit .

😠 I picked up a glass bottle and put it in the only rubbish bin they had at the back of the counter. They kicked me out because i am not allowed at the back of the counter. Was just trying to help. I guess it’s to each their own, if you help you get kicked out. They prefer bad people leaving glass to...

🫤 Expected quite a lot from this place. The only thing we as a group didn't enjoy the most at this place - MUSIC! It was horrible! The DJs seemed to be professional but the song choices could have been better. There should have a mix of both EDM and club songs. It felt like we had to get HIGH in order...
