    A funky little upstairs bar above The Kingslander it is good for a quiet drink, but mostly it's best use is for private functions purposes.

    It may seem a little bit off the beaten track but The Ginger Minx absolutely nails that…read moreneighbourhood vibe. They describe themselves on FB as 'a house party at a mate of a mates' and for this very reason Ginger Minx promises never to have a cover charge and offers free Wifi to all of its patrons, which in Auckland is a rarity. With bloody Mary specials, great music and a huge outdoor courtyard this place is ideal for a sunny Sunday session.

    Located just minutes from New Zealand's renowned Eden Park Stadium and a mere $15 taxi ride to…read moretown, the Ginger Minx couldn't be more perfectly situated. On an average night one can share a drink with their in-laws while lounging on comfy sheepskin throws in the outdoor area, or can gossip, mingle and people-watch inside over a cocktail with the girls. The Ginger Minx boasts eclectic funky decor, both indoor and outdoor seating as well as a dance floor, complete with turntables where local DJ heroes like Dick Johnson can be found most nights spinning dubstep and drum n bass beats. The Mexican inspired/street-style decor and photos pinned behind the bar create a shrine-like composition that is an interesting way to occupy the time it takes bar staff to concoct their masterpieces. The Ginger Minx has managed what most bars and restaurants (especially those outside of town) aspire to; it is the perfect blend of familiarity and excitement, young and old, local and exotic - and it is this combination that keeps its patrons coming back again and again. Strongly recommended for both visitors to Auckland, as well as local residents; the fun, comfortable atmosphere means a good time is guaranteed.

    Meeting friends for a few drinks at Grand Central is a great way to both start and end your night…read more As one of the most popular, long standing, trendy bars on Ponsonby Road, Grand Central is the perfect place to meet 'hipsters' and people watch. With a full bar and extensive wine list it caters for everyone, and as a result the bar attracts patrons of all ages and walks of life. Though quite a small venue, live music is frequently played, there is room for a bit of a dance, and there is also plenty of outdoor seating. A slight down side of this however is the seated area is usually full of smokers, so be prepared. Smoking aside, Grand Central is a guaranteed good time. Regardless of whether you sit outside on the comfy couches with a wine in the afternoon or dance the night away while enjoying live music, there is never a dull moment.

    I would like to call Grand Central the Monday to Sunday live music and DJ hot spot of Ponsonby rd,…read morethey have been doing their groovy thing for many a year and pull in the crowd time and time again. Monday nights are a sure bar filler with the Open Mic night, pop your name on the list and wait your turn to sing out or play about three songs. For the rest of the week, you get different bands, musicians, or DJ's to keep the bar sounding and feeling festive. Always open late, and with fantastic friendly bartenders. You can also hire the upstairs function room for say a birthday party or work function. They have a courtyard to sit in if its not raining, which is a new addition, and you can also smoke here or out the front on comfy couches. Pop in for Happy hour after work or check them out on a busy weekend night, always a very colorful scene.
