حانة The Eagle

So many great experiences here. Come along for the only gay bar Auckland has to offer. Welcoming, friendly, and great value. Come as you are and always promises a good time.

A lively place with a good atmosphere where everyone is free to be who they are; they have a jukebox where you can choose your own music.

My all-time favorite bar in Auckland. Good drinks, fair prices, and excellent service. Great for meeting people and having fun, no matter the day of the week.

Amazing place with an incredible team! I always have so much fun there and end up meeting great people every time. The prices are very reasonable, the drinks are good, and the atmosphere is super safe and welcoming for anyone who just wants to have a fun night out. I’ve taken many friends there and they all love it. Definitely one of the best spots on K’Road, much better than anywhere else around!

Boring and the manager was dull and rude.

Love being in this place!

Being European and white, I'm lucky to have never experienced racism in my life, but I have to say that I had a very bad racist experience here because I'm not a native English speaker. It came from a Kiwi employee with short, red hair and a very foul mouth. I ordered a Red Bull vodka, and then while she was pouring it, I asked one of her colleagues, who was very friendly, for a Smirnoff Black (a popular drink in New Zealand). There was a misunderstanding because they thought I didn't want the Red Bull vodka but the Smirnoff Black, when in reality I wanted both drinks. The Kiwi colleague's reaction was to get angry, yell at me, violently throw my glass and the empty Red Bull can at me, and shout at me again, in a derogatory and condescending way, reminding me that I was in New Zealand and that I had to speak English (a very racist attitude in a city like Auckland). I spoke to her two other colleagues in Spanish, and they understood me perfectly (one of them wasn't a native Spanish speaker). Everything was fine. Until the grumpy Kiwi woman served me, I think she didn't make an effort to understand me because of my accent, or perhaps she wanted to belittle me for not being a native English speaker. I've been in Auckland on vacation for less than a week, and she was the only person who didn't understand a word I said. Every year at my job, I serve many Kiwis who are on vacation in my city (in Spain), and it never occurred to me to treat them badly for not knowing Spanish. With basic English, we understood each other perfectly. Aside from this unpleasant woman, I highly recommend the place. You can choose the music, and the atmosphere (Latin) is very good. I'm writing this review in Spanish so that non-native English speakers can avoid this person.

It is alright, i was here with my cousin. He met some girls and he showed me a nice woman on tinder on the coromandel island, so we will plan our travel to go there. I am not gay bjt i think this coukd be a bar for gay people.
