The Churchill Auckland

Located on the 20th floor of the "Four Points" by Sheraton Hotel, The Churchill is a rooftop gin and cocktail bar that offers spectacular panoramic views of the city.

With a focus on gin and cocktails, The Churchill offers close to 200 different gin varieties from around the world, as well as beers, wines, and spirits.

You can start with their exclusive "10/10/10" menu to create your own custom gin and tonic by selecting from 10 different types of gin, 10 artisan mixers, and 10 different pairs of botanicals if you're new to gin or choose from the extensive gin list if you're an expert. Not sure what to get? Ask the staff. They provide exceptional knowledge and amazing service.

Feeling a bit hungry? A delicious and sophisticated shared plate style menu is available, including food items like a charcuterie board for two, fresh market oysters, red wine braised lamb sliders (or charred chicken tikka sliders), and golden gin truffles for dessert.

The elegant decor creates a sophisticated lounge ambience that is ideal for after-work drinks, aperitifs before shows, or a night of cocktails with friends.

Like their slogan says, "Gin with a View," the Churchill is clearly the best place to enjoy a drink with a view. Just keep in mind that, because of its popularity, waiting a little while for a table is not unusual.
