About
My Bar on Durham Street East in Auckland's CBD has carved out a solid reputation as one of the city's more approachable craft brewery and bar destinations. With a 4.5-star rating across 544 Google reviews, it's earned its stripes by doing the fundamentals well—serving quality local and imported beers in a welcoming space without the pretension that can sometimes dog the craft beer scene. The venue punches above its weight for consistency, offering a rotating selection that keeps regulars coming back and gives visitors genuine reason to stop in.
Expect a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere that works equally well for a solo beer enthusiast, a group of mates, or couples looking for an easy evening out. The bar itself is compact but never feels cramped, with enough seating at the counter and scattered tables to find your groove. Most visitors spend 1–2 hours here, though it's easy to lose track of time over a few good pours. Staff genuinely know their product and won't push you toward the most expensive option—a refreshing approach in central Auckland. The venue suits anyone who appreciates beer without needing it to be a whole scene.
My Bar sits perfectly within a Durham Street crawl, walkable from the surrounding bars and restaurants that make the CBD increasingly vibrant after dark. It's a solid anchor point if you're exploring Auckland's craft beer culture, and worth the detour whether you're a serious enthusiast or just after a good drink in good company. Year-round it maintains form, though summer evenings draw the after-work crowd—arrive early if you prefer a quieter experience.
