King Oyster - Fusion Funk

Ooh la la, looks like your Friday night plans are sorted - not even the viral apocalypse can keep these bivalves at bay so brush those pesky barnacles off your shell, polish the pearl and dive on in for there are few crustaceans (or fungi) more regal than the King Oyster.

The 3 conservatory-ruined molluscs emerging from hiding in their crusted armour are:
- Oscar Laven - Saxophones
- Blain Fitzpatrick - Bass
- Jacob Randall - Drums

Hashigo Zake's Friday night music events are presented with assistance from Kererū Brewing.

Since 2009 we've been doing what we think is important for a bar, even if that means defying conventions. That starts with selecting a diverse range of beer styles for our taps while keeping big, corporate brewers out. As a result we've been named the best bar in Wellington by the Society of Beer Advocates and the best bar in New Zealand by ratebeer.com multiple times. Our electronic menus are updated with product and other information in real time. We maintain an environment that's safe for all our customers and staff. In the COVID-era that means ensuring good air quality thanks to ventilation, air purification and CO2 monitoring. We put our atmospheric underground location to good use and host superb music and comedy in our lounge.

We open at midday every day. Our location is 25 Taranaki St, Te Aro, Wellington, New Zealand.
