The Thirsty Dog

Karangahape Road pub hosting live gigs from poetry to live bands.

The Thirsty Dog is a down-to-earth watering hole with a laid-back feel featuring live music and yummy food. We host everything from poetry to punk, live bands, quiet jams to quirky jazz, ukuleles, Ulysses and everything in between! We may be small but we pack a mighty punch with a delicious range of craft beer on draught, Guinness good enough to rival the homeland and a wine selection you wouldn’t turn your nose up at.

We aim to provide superb service and a place that anyone could call home. All this is held together with a gorgeous team of friendly staff. What more could you ask for?
