Welcome to the home of Craft Beer in Newmarket, Auckland!

A cool and laid back bar, playing sweet tunes, with ideas and concepts throughout the bar that are just a little bit crafty. From darts, to pool, to chalkboard tables that have tic tack toe (naughts and crosses) lines painted on them so you can challenge your mates, to coasters made from recycled beer boxes, it's all a little crafty.

Kick back and try one of the largest craft beer selections Auckland has to offer. Convieniently located on the corner of Khyber Pass Road and Broadway in newmarket, there is ample parking all around us in the many towers as well as plenty of street parking.
