A night on the town in New Zealand

"No. 1 High Street used to be the infamous Met club, so it didn’t really have big shoes to fill. However, as dirty as Met was it was loved by many so when it closed down we were all gutted and expected something just as manky to take its place. But then No. 1 High Street appeared and we cautiously and warily scoped it out. It is, in my opinion, definitely one of the nicer joints in Auckland. I have only been here on nights out for dancing, not for dinner/lunch as you can do. It has a huge downstairs area for dancing which is very elegant and classy. Then the upstairs bit is available to be hired out for private functions and is the perfect place for a chit chat with your mate. I love the little touches they have put on this place like the piano that the djs play at and the beautiful bathrooms with huge mirrors. This place is very high class."

"Oh how I do love this place. This is everyone’s favourite gay bar in Auckland! I come here with my girl friends to get away from the sleaziness of any other club or bar in Auckland, and it is pretty much the perfect place to go because if you are a girl then you are pretty much invisible here. It can get quite ego damaging after a while however. There are more shirtless men here than at a beach and everyone is just out to have a great time, the vibe is always so fun and light hearted. There is a stage to rock out on and a HUGE disco ball surrounded by other little ones to give it a dancing queen-esque feel. A favourite pastime of mine is taking single straight male friends here and watching them get eaten alive."
