Great Winter Entertainment At The Oakroom

Situated in Victoria Park Market, one of Auckland’s most historic and treasured landmarks, The Oakroom is a new bar in an old part of town. The Oakroom, formerly a stable in the 1800’s, has been carefully crafted in order to maintain a contemporary feel and enhance its natural and historic features. The architecturally designed fit-out includes a stunning combination of solid oak, natural brick and soft lighting and the view of the park from an elevated outdoor deck is second to none. The Oakroom is conveniently situated at 17 Drake Street, just minutes from the CBD and is a fun, vibrant place, ideal for after work drinks, functions and events with personalised service and friendly staff.

The Oakroom can be hired for private functions and is particularly suited to corporate events with a great selection of wines and food. They offer free venue hire for private and corporate occasions and provide friendly, professional service with a fantastic array of food and beverages to choose from and all of their welcoming and experienced team work with their clients to ensure their event is a success.

The Oakroom holds a terrific jazz session every last Sunday of the month from midday to 3pm which is a great way to spend a winter Sunday afternoon with good food and a relaxing drink in hand. They also have the talented pianist, Mark Bayes playing there between five and eight every Thursday evening, and for more information on these events, please visit the website at http://www.jazzpiano.co.nz .

On Tuesdays and Wednesdays only The Oakroom have a great Autumn and Winter Special going, offering steak and chips for only $15. Diners are served 250 grams of prime Angus beef, served with shoestring fries and topped with salsa verde. This really is a chance to have a premium meal at a ‘shoestring’ price!

As the Sunday Star Times said, “Great spot for group events. Lovely view.”  The reviewer went on to say, “The interior of the bar is a big, open space, just the ticket for group events. Right on the mark is the waitress, who is friendly, informative and has the ability to make one feel relaxed and happy.

“We order and as we put the pre-Christmas world to rights over a glass of rose, it feels a little like being on holiday: the sun is shining, we are up high - almost among the trees - in surroundings that are almost foreign. The garlic bread is crisp pizza and perfect with my "Oak Room take" on Caesar salad: butter crunch lettuce leaves over a white platter with croutons, crisp bacon rashers and parmesan.”
