About this place Dirty Little Secret

Dirty Little Secret is a rooftop container bar on the eighth floor of the Hope Gibbons Building on Taranaki Street, inspired by Melbourne laneway bars. It is a mainstream nightlife venue run by New Zealand Venue Co, drawing a general crowd for sunset drinks and DJs, but it is welcoming to LGBTQ+ patrons and hosts a recurring Drag Bingo night. It is included here as a gay-friendly option rather than a dedicated queer venue.

VISA WOAP. Pretty disappointed with the service, all the servers didn’t seem to care about actually serving us. Our WOAP burgers took over an hour to come and when they did they came cold. The burgers also seemed way nicer online, I would honestly give it a 3/10 considering it’s meant to be a WOAP burger it just seemed like a shitty one on the normal menu. Very disappointed.

Food takes over an hour to arrive and they don’t tell you beforehand. For simple fast food as well.
