Sweat Shop Brew Kitchen

Located in the historic Victoria Quadrant of Auckland, this extravagant establishment features a large bustling bar, on-site boutique brewery, live music staging, the private and intimate Velvet Room, relaxed dining and one of Auckland’s largest outdoor decks. The heritage site and former clothing factory is influenced by the iconic Rosie the Riveter – an iconic American woman who worked in factories and ship yards during WW2, today a symbol of equality and bloody hard work. We are proud of our heritage, striving to be the hardest working bar in Auckland. As Rosie would say, ‘We Can Do It!’
With an unparalleled range of event spaces catered to with our American influenced menu, Sweat Shop Brew Kitchen is the ideal venue – be it a birthday, business or bachelorette bash. Big or small, we’ll put our blood, sweat and beers into making your next occasion a good one.
