Mystery bar!

Submitted by The Masked Barfly on Wednesday, 07 May 2008.

Yes, I know it's an old concept, but I couldn't resist. Also, this isn't so much a bar as a café, though it does sell wine. And it feels more like being in a friend's living room, if you had a friend with lots of sexy mid-Twentieth-Century furniture and nice views.

Rather a nice place to sit in the sunshine (presuming you can do so without freezing your antennae off) at the weekend and watch the world go by. But where is it?

Ooh, oooh, oooh ...

It's the cafe/reception area of the new Ohtel on Oriental Parade!

It is indeed. It looked like it was just going to be a private reception area, but now it's open to the public. On a fine day (remember them?) it's a good spot to sit outside and enjoy the view across Waitangi Park.

Hmm...this post seems suspiciously like the Mystery Bar posts that used to run on Wellurban.

Yes, I gave the Mystery Barfly permission to use the phrase.

Although the Mystery Barfly tends to take without asking quite often.
