About Us
A night out in Auckland is not complete without a visit to a long-standing legend of the New Zealand bar scene, Danny Doolans. Kick-start your revelry with a pint in the garden bar, but prepare for the space to fill up with city socialisers who are in search of some fun. You’re guaranteed a memorable night at Dannys; there’s plenty of craic to go round and live music every night of the week, cranking out anthems to get the whole crowd singing.
And while we’re known for our late night fun, we still take our fare pretty seriously. Traditional Irish favourites and hearty classic meals are on the menu throughout the day and evening, with our iconic Sunday Roast serving as a destination drawcard. However our pride & joy is the delicious Danny’s Steakhouse Grill, featuring a variety of cuts including the showstopper 700gm Tomahawk steak.
Book the Viaduct’s premium function experience in our contemporary underground Cellar Bar.
Located below Danny Doolans and available for exclusive hire any night of the week, The Cellar Bar is entirely yours for an unforgettable event. Staying true to our roots, The Cellar Bar has welcoming Irish-inspired interiors, but with a sophisticated underground edge where your guests can enjoy a private evening of celebration. If you’ve ever wanted to recreate your own legendary Danny’s experience, all to yourself, now you can!
A night out at Dannys is reason enough to get your crew together. Call by for a stout, fill up on pub classics and soak in the craic of Auckland’s favourite Irish bar.
