The ViewAuckland Review
Vibe
South Island rustic meets the buzz of downtown Auckland. Lots of pool tables and a huge outdoor deck make it a great destination to meet backpackers and other international travellers.
Service
Genuinely friendly, even down to the offer of using the internet at the adjacent Nomad’s backpackers hostel. You’d think they’d be offering free wi-fi access to their netbook-toting international clientele though.
What's on Tap?
Monteiths rules the roost at one of Auckland’s longest bars, with the addition of Erdinger and Tiger. Headless Draught is a Fort St Union only brew, and the bar also showcases a different Kiwi craft beer each month. Get in now for Tuatara’s hoppy Pilsner.
Feeling peckish?
Loads of well-priced bar snacks – fish bites, ribs, chicken wings – starting at just nine bucks. Snack-sized pizza for $14 and main meals – burgers, tuna salad – if you’re feeling hungrier.
The Bottom Line
Fort St Union is a cut above other adjacent backpacker-focused bars with better food, a cruisier atmosphere, and a wider range of beers.
A Reason to Return
Next month’s guest beer from Blenheim’s mighty Moa brewery.
