    We were so happy we came across this underground bar, that we went back the next night! No menus, they will ask you what you generally drink and will suggest something based on your answers. My brother (typical Aussie VB man) isn't a cocktail man, but he had 4 and loved them all. I asked to be surprised for mine, starting with absolutely no preferences. Jasper smashed it, and made me delicious drinks each time. My partner had whiskey neat and enjoyed all of his. I'm so sorry I can't remember her name but she was also providing amazing service and great conversations.
    They also have live music from I think 9pm.
    Definitely a spot to check out!

    A must visit when visiting Auckland, a excellent range of things to see each night at the venue and a wide range of local talent. A safe and welcoming venue and amazing staff and always has cool cat regulars who are always chill and friendly, always a good time and in the heart of the CBD and easy to get too. highly recommend 10/10

    The Classic always has good comedians and there really isn't a bad seat in the house. Having been there several times I recommend the tables for two.

    We popped in after dinner last night. The live piano and intimate space tempted us. The staff were so helpful. I had 2 of the best cocktails ever! Clever recipes. Thanks for your hospitality! We will return when next in AKL

    Dropped in while on holiday to sample some local wines. The find wasn't the wines, it was the hostess - she was just amazing!. After sampling a couple of her suggestions, we then took home a couple of bottles all at a very reasonable price.
    We tasted a number of wines, loved the venue - but our overwhelming memory is of the hostess recommending varietals we never would have thought to try.
    We thought this a real find.

    The staffs are friendly, some of the guests were rude to me though. The bar is small and cozy, everyone was having a good time. The drinks are priced affordably.

    Well done crafted cocktails by knowledgeable bartenders. Worth the visit for some good drinks in a quiet and relaxing environment.
    NOTE: location and business is the same, but name changed to „John & May‘s“

    Great place to go to have a quality cocktail. I went with my girlfriend and Emanuele helped her choose a great shiraz and made me a few delicious mojitos! Would definitely recommend

    We had a great time bowling. Our lane had a spillage an hour before our booking and the staff rung ahead to let us know. To say sorry we were given free arcade cards for half an hour. Very much appreciated and so much fun! Great that you could order food and drinks from your table and get them delivered. Overall a really fun place but be prepared to spend lots of money!!!

    Wonderful little watering hole, with a sophisticated drinks range and brilliant staff. We also had the bruschetta which was absolutely delicious, great prices too for high quality food and drinks!
