Play Pokies at Family Bar and Club in Auckland

As a Dubai citizen, I came to explore New Zealand with high expectations, hoping to experience a welcoming and inclusive environment. However, I was disappointed to witness instances of racial discrimination, even at recommended establishments in Auckland. It deeply saddened me when a security guard prevented my entry while allowing individuals of a different ethnicity to pass without issue. Such discriminatory treatment is disheartening and goes against the values of equality and respect. I strongly dislike the way in which people of brown ethnicity were treated differently. It is my hope that steps will be taken to address and rectify these incidents, fostering a more inclusive and harmonious society for all.

Really nice place, they are connected with a bar next to it with karaoke.
They have also a Latin music backyard.
The guards are a bit rude, pushing the people.

In Auckland for this weekend, from Sydney. Tried to get in with my Australian Drivers License and sadly I had to have my passport on me to enter. But the security guide (apparently the one managing the security that night) said I could go to an ATM close by and get him 20 dollars so he would get me in with my Australian ID. Found it sketchy so I didn't want to go. Maybe the owners of the place want to know that those things are happening. Not very good experience as a tourist.

Favourite bar in the city. It's always a good time. Most places charge a cover where this one does not and as there are several areas you get to chose your vibe for the night. There is a karaoke room, one with more pop music and another with a more electronic flare. Drag shows on weekends.

I met my wife here, we hit it off straight away!! It's such a great, friendly and energetic environment to be in. I would highly recommend LGBTQIA+ community to definitely come to this bar. You meet so many awesome and wholesome people!!
