Pub in Dunedin

“Another nice place to hang out for gin lovers out there, right in the heart of Dunedin CBD. It has a cool ambiance and a variety of cocktails menu. Don't worry if you are not into gin, there are many other things you can choose to drink. The attendants are super friendly. If they are not busy, they will come around to talk to you. Highly recommended place to wind down on Friday evening.”
