Handpicked by a Auckland Local Expert, we bring you our guide to 'Best Bars in Auckland'.

Bellini Cocktail Bar

The Riverhead

The Riverhead is believed to be New Zealand's oldest riverside tavern and, while the venue has been modernised it retains much of the charm it has held for the past 150 years. Connected to an airy outside deck surrounded by 100-year old oak trees, The Landing Restaurant provides a fantastic relaxed dining setting.  This is premium pub fare with a sophisticated edge, served with the down-to...

Dr Rudi's Rooftop Brewing Co

Dr Rudi's Rooftop Brewing Co enjoys one of the best locations in the city. Situated on the third floor, the rooftop restaurant and bar offers glorious views of Viaduct Harbour.

Housebar

Housebar is located on level 1 of Hotel DeBrett, just minutes from the bustle of the Britomart, lower Queen Street and Auckland’s iconic waterfront.   In keeping with the mid-century furnishings and Art Deco glam of the hotel it resides within, Housebar is an atmospheric hideaway intimate enough for a cosy date-night and lively enough for larger social gatherings.  ...

Cornerbar
