The Halligan is a cocktail and wine bar on the second level of a heritage building overlooking St Patrick's Square in the Auckland CBD. The room looks out through arched windows, and the website says it was once part of a motor house. It opens Tuesday to Saturday from 4pm until late. The bar is brought to you by the team behind Bistro Saine, and the website also names Hotel Indigo Auckland as a partner.
The cocktails start from the classics and then take their own direction. Examples on the website include a whiskey and nigori sake drink with peach cordial and a maple and peach foam, and a tequila drink with cold brew and pistachio ice cream. Originals are $22 as at 2026, and the lower-alcohol spritz and a 0.0% mojito are $19 and $17 as at 2026. The list also has spirits from around the world, wines, beer and a non-alcoholic menu. The bar's team is run by a bar manager, who leads the drinks list, and a venue manager.
