Can't stop thinking about your favourite kiwi pub meal? Our doors will be open again soon, and you'll see we've shaken up our menus as we get used to doing things a little differently around here. Don't worry though, we've still got your cravings covered.

You can learn a lot over a beer, and you can learn even more in our award-winning Brewery Experience.

Our Brewery Experience is perfect for a Birthday, work event, or just a fun activity to do with a group of your beer-loving mates.

For just $30pp, you'll get to enjoy:

• 3 X 300ml tasters of award-winning Sweat Shop brews
• A pint of your favourite brew
• Food matches and social platters
• Brewers discussion with our very own brew wizard Paddy

We are disappointed to inform you our live music events are currently on hold until further notice.

As per advice from the NZ Ministry of Health, we are confident we are currently continuing to operate a safe environment for the health of our customers, however in order to ensure we follow the suggested social-distancing recommendations we believe putting all large group gatherings on hold is the right decision for all.

Our bars have served us well over the years. Now it’s time for us to serve them.

15 of your favourite Joylab drinkeries, meeteries and eateries are now open across Auckland, and ready for you to head down with your mates for a bite or a brew.

We're so grateful for the support which has been shown to us over recent weeks. Whilst this marathon is far from over, we cannot thank you – our loyal customers – enough for your past, present and future support and for choosing us as your first choice local.

Now you can join us for a drink whether you’re dining or not, and we've got some bloody good reasons to #backyourbar and join us for a cold one. Check them out below.

Celebrate the return of your local with these sweet deals on some of your favourite brews.

Grab a bucket of 4 x Heineken or Heineken 0.0% bottles OR a 1.8L jug of Export for just $25 each.

It's the perfect excuse to support your favourite local and reconnect with mates over a cold one. Cheers to that.
