Casino & gaming floor
A proper gaming floor inside the venue — machines, blackjack, roulette and a private poker room — with the full drinks list brought to you and the dance floor still within earshot. Entry is 20+ and there is no door charge to walk in.
The machine lounge opens with the doors. Blackjack runs Thursday to Sunday, roulette on Friday and Saturday, poker in scheduled midweek sessions.
A low-lit lounge off the side bar, spaced seating and a service button at every bank.
Blackjack Thursday to Sunday, roulette on weekends, low-stake tables early on.
Cocktails, taps, wine, zero-alcohol and bar snacks without leaving your seat.
The casino
Most casino rooms feel like they were sealed off from whatever else is happening in the building. Ours was not. The casino lounge sits off the side of the main room, through a doorway rather than down a corridor — close enough that your group can split up for half an hour and find each other again, far enough that the speaker stacks are not sitting on top of the tables.
Walk in and the machine lounge is the first thing you reach: warm lamp light, spaced seating, no harsh overheads and a service button at every bank. Past it, the dealer tables run along the far wall, with blackjack open from early evening and the roulette wheel brought into play as the room fills on a Friday or Saturday. The poker room sits behind its own door with its own service, for people who want a game rather than a crowd.
There is no membership, no sign-up and no door charge. Bring photo ID, walk in the way you would to any other part of the venue, and play as small as you like — the low-stake tables exist precisely so the floor is not only for people who already know what they are doing.
Open from doors until close, every night we are trading. Spaced seating, warm lighting and table service, so you are not standing at the bar with a drink in each hand.
Blackjack with our own dealers Thursday to Sunday, roulette on weekend nights. Low-stake tables open first for anyone still learning the game.
A separate room with its own door and its own service. Scheduled midweek sessions, and the whole room can be booked out for a private game.
A service bar inside the lounge covers the full cocktail, beer, wine and zero-alcohol list, plus bar snacks from the kitchen well past midnight.
The lounge side of the room, through to the casino floor
On the floor
Six parts to the gaming side of the venue. Table openings move with how busy the room is, so if you are coming in specifically for one of them, ask us before you travel.
A low-lit room off the side lounge with our gaming machines, set far enough from the speaker stacks that you can hear yourself think. Seats are spaced, the lighting is warm rather than harsh, and there is a service button at every bank so a drink comes to you instead of you queueing for it.
Dealer-run tables open in the early evening and stay open until the small hours on Friday and Saturday. Blackjack runs most nights, with low-stake tables early for anyone learning and our dealers happy to talk a first-timer through the hand before the cards come out.
The wheel is the social end of the floor — a group can stand around one table, play small, and still be ten steps from the bar and the music. We open it as the room fills on Friday and Saturday and keep it running while there are players on it.
A separate room with its own door, its own service and no sightline to the dance floor. Midweek sessions run to a published start time, and the whole room can be booked out for a private game as part of a party or corporate night.
A service bar sits inside the casino lounge so the full cocktail, beer, wine and zero-alcohol list reaches the floor without anyone walking back across the venue. Bar snacks come through from the kitchen on the same run, right through to late.
Birthdays, stags and work nights can book the poker room or a reserved section of the casino lounge with a dealer, a drinks package and a host. Tell us the headcount and the budget and our events team will put the night together around it.

Your visit
It works the same way the rest of the venue does. There is nothing to sign up to and nobody takes your details at the door — just ID, and then the floor is yours for as long as you want it.
Good to know
Gambling is entertainment, not income. Decide what you are spending before you start, stop when it is gone, and never chase a loss. Our team are trained to watch the floor, to offer a break, water or food, and to decline service when that is the right thing to do. If you want help holding to your own limit, tell any member of our team — we will take it seriously and we will not make it awkward.
Free and confidential gambling harm support operates in New Zealand, for the person gambling and for family and friends. Ask our duty manager in confidence, or read our responsible gambling page.
Table openings move with the room. Send us a message or call the bar and we will tell you what is running on the night you are planning to come down.
Private gaming
Birthdays, stags, leaving dos and work nights can take the poker room or a reserved section of the casino lounge with a dealer, a drinks package and a host looking after the group. It works on its own or bolted onto any of our party packages.
Tell our events team the date, the headcount and roughly what you want the night to be. A dozen people around a poker table with a bottle on it is a different evening from twenty people moving between the lounge and the dance floor, and we will price it for the one you actually want.
Prices in NZD. Final availability and details can be confirmed with the bar team.
The poker room, set for a private game
Casino
A gaming machine lounge that is open from doors, dealer-run blackjack from Thursday to Sunday, roulette on Friday and Saturday nights, and a separate poker room running scheduled midweek sessions. A service bar inside the lounge covers the full drinks and bar snack list.
No membership and no booking. Walk in with photo ID and the floor is open to you like the rest of the venue. The only thing worth booking ahead is the poker room for a private game, or a reserved section of the lounge for a group.
No. There is no door charge for the casino lounge and no minimum spend. On selected guest-DJ and themed nights a door charge may apply to the venue as a whole, and we will tell you before you arrive if you ask.
Entry is 20+, the same as the venue itself, and our team check current photo ID on every visit — a New Zealand driver licence, Kiwi Access Card or passport. There are no exceptions, including for guests who are part of a private booking.
Yes. The casino lounge has its own service bar and a service button at each bank of machines, so cocktails, taps, wine, zero-alcohol drinks and bar snacks all come to the floor. Our team will not serve anyone who has had too much, on the gaming floor least of all.
Not at all. Low-stake blackjack tables open early in the evening for exactly this, and our dealers will talk you through the hand before the cards come out. Nobody at our tables minds a first-timer asking.
Set your limit before you sit down and treat it as the cost of the entertainment. Our team watch the floor, offer breaks, water and food, and will decline further service or help you set a limit if you ask — see our responsible gambling page.
Yes. The poker room or a reserved section of the lounge can be booked with a dealer, a drinks package and a host, either on its own or added to a party or corporate package. Send our events team your date, headcount and budget.
