Freida Margolis

Tucked into the heart of Grey Lynn in a building that once housed a butcher shop, Freida Margolis is a much-loved corner bar known for its laid-back charm and loyal local following. Unpretentious and full of character, it serves an excellent selection of wines, craft beers, and classic cocktails—all best enjoyed to the backdrop of spinning vinyl or live music. The space has a cosy, vintage vibe and regularly attracts jazz musicians and piano players who make good use of the upright piano. Whether you're there for the sounds, the sips, or the sense of community, Freida Margolis delivers a casual and soulful spot to unwind.
