East St. Hall is a multi-purpose venue for food, art, culture and music at 5 East Street, just off Karangahape Road in central Auckland. The building was once the community hall of a Samoan church, on the corner of East Street and Galatos Street. It is a mid-century modernist structure with an open design, intended as a neighbourhood focal point.
The venue combines a canteen and a bar. The canteen serves pitas and plates inspired by the food culture of Tel Aviv, while the bar pours organic wines, fresh beer, and citrusy, herbaceous cocktails. A sunny courtyard is used in the afternoons, with dinner service following and late club nights later in the evening.
Its website does not state owners, a head chef, awards or function capacities. Bookings are handled by email through a link on the website, so groups interested in hiring the space should enquire directly.
