Welcome To Cartel

Step into the foyer of the old Post Office at 224 Symonds Street and head downstairs to the basement, where you'll find Cartel; one of Auckland's best-kept secrets. Now, far from the original boiler room, Rococo patterned silk wall panels and sumptuous leather couches welcome you in after dark.

Cartel; a former winner of Auckland’s best bartender and best cocktail list at the Lewisham Awards is the kind of place you'll want to stay for hours. The delectable cocktails, extensive range of fine wines and single malts and outstanding bartenders are just some of the reasons you'll find it hard to leave this hidden city escape until the wee small hours of the morning.

For those who have a particular favourite tipple personalised bottle keeps are available.
