Bars/Clubs in Wellington

There are other bars than Blend Bar (own by Nomads) in Wellington worth visiting, trust me!

Sandwiches-the one and only club for international performances/djs within house/ electronica/drum'n base etc. The cost is about $20, but worth it big time. Check out their homepage for updated events and guests. End of Courtneyplace next to the Embassy Theatre. Open until 5 am.

Matterhorns-a nice relaxed bar during weekdays, frid-sat more of a mini club. Outdoor terrace for smokers and a nice and friendly group of waiters/waitresses. Good cocktail list. Located on Cuba st, between Dixon st/Ghuznee St.

Havanna-this is the place where you can dance to modern salsa and great jazz/soul music. They roast their own coffee for plenty of cafes in town, such as Fidels on Cuba st. You can easily smell the flavours of coffee during daytime if the wind is right. Located on upper Cuba st, around the corner from Southern Cross restaurant.

Goodluck Bar- this is the bar with no sign and is secret to those who haven't been there before. Not too many people and a friendly athmosphere.

Red Square- the favourite club around Courtney place with long queues and halv naked girls. Small and packed with nice people and a tiny dance floor. If you can't get in, try Maya next door.

If you like mainstream music, R n' B, hip hop and drunk students, visit Shooters, Jet Bar, Coyotes or Big Kumara.
