This is, hands down, one of the best bars in Auckland. All of their drinks are world class and would highly recommend 👍
Update - my favourite bartender left so it might not be the same place without him 😪

Great service and great environment. Good vibe that makes you feel like home together with a great cocktail menu, added to their experience and knowlede to make changes under your demands, makes it a Must in Auckland. Thanks to Creigh, Addison and Sean for some great nights.

These guys were really talented, gave good recommendations for non-alcoholic as well as alcoholic cocktails and it was a pleasure watching them prepare it. Guess it's like art, and they do it well. Taste explosion...

Loved the atmosphere and engagement with staff, who are very knowledgeable. Amazing gin selection. Great place to take visitors.

Gorgeous, delicious, and extremely creative cocktails in a sexy, dimly lit setting. Clever menu with cocktails arranged on a flavour map for when the inspiration is lacking – although the bartenders are also really helpful when it comes to navigating the drinks list. The Ponche de Leche is a winner. So is the open fireplace.

If you're looking for an upmarket Cocktail lounge for your next date, special occasion or just because you need damn fine Gun Cocktail, John & May will keep you decadently buzzed. They have the finest and most technical mixology in the City which is only amplified with AMAZING service, chilled ambience and a swanky bar bustling with what appears to be scientist's mixing up some crazy good cocktails. I have the cheese platter and fried chicken to line the gastro, the portions were perfect for 3-4 people, food quality was fresh and top notch. Liquors and spirit's we're equally high end so expect to pay a little more, you won't be disappointed as these are pretty strong cocktails, so you'll get more than your money's worth 😉
Notable cocktails to mention had Forest Gin and X-Gin

Great new place, with some really interesting cocktail combinations. You have to try the X-Gin (Cacao) and the Forest Earl Grey Gins, really special and delicious! Food is big enough to share and great value for money, drinks also pack a punch. Romantic setting great for date night or even bigger groups with the booths. Hidden gem with the entrance next to Queen's Ferry on Vulcan Lane
