Australian-born mini-golf bar Holey Moley has landed in Auckland, adding some friendly, booze-fuelled competition to the average night out. Created by parent company, Funlab, Holey Moley brings together a mini-golf course and the humming atmosphere of a bar, turning traditional putt-putt into a sensory labyrinth for kidults.

Found along the Viaduct in the building formerly known as The Nightingale, the first-of-its-kind Auckland venue sprawls across two storeys and boast 27 themed holes. Visitors can tap, tap, tap their way through rooms themed around The Simpsons, E.T., The Flintstones and The Hobbit, complete trick shots across miniature buses as part of an Evel Knievel-themed hole and navigate around obstacles in nana's living room.

The vibrant space also boasts a bar on the top level overlooking the waterfront. Called The Caddyshack, it serves craft beer and an appropriate pun-laden cocktail list that includes the likes of The Sugar Caddy, Putta Colada and the Waiheke Island Iced Tee. A full-service kitchen also boasts a menu of pizzas, burgers, hotdogs and bar snacks. Our eyes are veering towards The Dirty Birdie burger starring Korean fried chicken, and the Holey Fries which come topped with burger sauce, guacamole and barbecue sauce.

Teeing off from Thursday, 11 October, Holey Moley Auckland will operate seven days until late. Reservations are now being taken.
