No matter the event or the occasion, Good Spirits Hospitality has them covered this summer.
Sip those sunny afternoons away at venues like The Cav and Union Post, or even better, with a Gin Tree in front of you at Botany Commons or The Fox. Looking for something livelier? Dance your nights away at the brand-new Cellar Bar. With such a variety of locations, you’re sure to find the perfect spot with Good Spirits.
Botany Commons
Around here, long lunches evolve into afternoons in the conservatory sunshine, beers taste better in front of the big screen, and family meals are made easy with a kids’ room for the young ones. As evening rolls around, the vibrant space comes alive with locals, music and revelry. Book the function room or look out for special events and entertainment in The Common Room. The vibe might be laidback, but we take our food seriously, from small meals and shared plates, through to burgers, pizzas and our refined Conservatory Classics. For craft connoisseurs, a range of brews await on tap.
The Cav
A Ponsonby institution. Soak up sweeping city views from the expansive deck or cosy up by the fire inside. Come for a relaxed family meal, an afterwork drink or for the vibrant late-night atmosphere that’s a signature offering within the walls of this iconic building. The Cav’s also a legendary sports venue – one of the best bars in the city to watch a match with a likeminded crowd.
Cellar Bar
Book the Viaduct’s newest premium function experience in our contemporary, underground Cellar Bar. Available for exclusive hire any weeknight for an unforgettable event, the Cellar Bar has a full bar, wine and cocktail lists, function catering packages, and space to accommodate Viaduct’s party precinct. Located below Danny Doolan’s, The Cellar Bar also transforms into a late-night party hub to extend the good times for revellers wanting to enjoy the iconic energy and atmosphere of Danny’s on Friday and Saturday nights.
Citizen Park
Step off Kingsland’s busy main street into a city escape where fairy lights and flora combine to create a vibrant space where meet friends and mingle with locals. Rain or shine, our urban garden bar always offers a warm atmosphere for social-seeking citizens. Long lunches, afternoon debriefs over margaritas or relaxed family meals, we’ve got you covered. From bar snacks to main attractions, savour creative twists on some modern American-inspired favourites. And if the cocktails aren’t enough to keep you coming back, each weekend we welcome DJs and musicians to the garden bar and ensure the biggest games of the season are on screen, too.
The Fox
London-inspired pub The Fox offers an affectionate nod to the motherland in the heart of the Viaduct. Unmistakably English but with the edge you’d expect from its harbourside surrounds, you’ll find iconic British bangers on repeat (both the sausage and the musical variety), gin trees and classic cocktails, Anglocentric ales, and a premium pub menu. Twelve big screens are dedicated to all live sports accompanied by a legendary atmosphere to rival the real thing. This cosy corner of the Viaduct also offers an authentic taste of home for those feeling nostalgic for ol’ Blighty or in search of a welcoming social scene, while the Churchill Room is the Viaduct’s best function space, with its own bar and entrance, perfect for private gatherings.
Union Post
Formerly the local post office, Union Post remains a neighbourhood institution as the home of relaxed dining, drinking and good times in the centre of Ellerslie Village. While there’s a nostalgic nod to the building’s heritage, interiors provide a contemporary space perfect for a cold drink with colleagues, a fun family meal, or a night out with friends. Our beautiful garden bar is just what sunny afternoons and long lunches are made for, then stick around as the late-night crowds arrive for a drink. Sitting in the heart of our community, Union Post is a space to pause, gather, share, and celebrate.
