About Lalaland Lounge Bar Wanaka
Lalaland Lounge Bar is a stylish upstairs cocktail bar and lounge atop a small alleyway venue in central Wānaka. This cozy watering-hole specializes in craft cocktails, local beers on tap, fine wines and spirits – with a playful, “dream world” vibe fitting its name. Visitors step up a flight of stairs from Ardmore Street into a retro-inspired lounge with vibrant decor: think funky lampshades, plush seating and quirky art. By day and into the early night the bar feels like an intimate lakeside cafe, and after dark it transforms into a high-energy nightclub with DJs and live music. Lalaland is notable for its rooftop deck with sweeping views of Lake Wānaka and the Southern Alps, making it a memorable spot for sunset drinks. Signature features include house-made limoncello (and other own-brand liqueurs), seasonal signature cocktails, and a friendly crew of award-winning bartenders who shake everything from gins and craft beers to tropical concoctions. Since opening in the 2010s, Lalaland has become a cornerstone of Wānaka’s nightlife – a place where locals mingle with travelers over creative drinks. In contrast to more mainstream pubs, Lalaland’s lounge setting and view give it an almost resort-like cultural vibe, emphasizing scenic escape and community gathering. It has earned a reputation as an iconic “hidden gem” on Wanaka’s bar scene: travelers rate it among the top nightlife spots, and it routinely earns 5-star reviews for atmosphere and bartending.
Events and Programming
Lalaland’s calendar is built around music and entertainment. Every weekend (and often midweek) the bar hosts DJs and live performers, from house and techno nights to acoustic sets and party jams. On Friday and Saturday nights you will typically find local and touring DJs spinning dance music – the kind of electronic, house, funk or retro beats that keep the lounge buzzing late into the night. In recent years Lalaland has hosted specialty club nights like the Resurgence dance series (a multi-genre DJ event featuring melodic house, trance and techno) and guest DJ residencies. It has also welcomed novelty shows and one-off events: for example, the “Spread the Jam” burlesque and drag cabaret tours stopped at Lalaland in 2020-21, packing the venue with burlesque performers, circus acts and laughter. These variety acts usually needed advance tickets. Many smaller events – such as indie bands or singer-songwriter nights – have cropped up just occasionally, usually without a heavy cover charge.
In a typical week you might see a lineup like: Friday night electronic dance party starting around 9pm, Saturday afternoon or evening rooftop cocktail session (weather permitting), and Sunday evening chill or mix-night with acoustic or DJ music. Some themed parties or DJ nights recur seasonally; for instance Lalaland occasionally hosts Latin dance evenings, disco retro nights or local jazz/art shows. Special holiday events (Halloween, New Year, etc.) may have extended hours. Most DJs and bands are drawn from Wānaka or the wider Otago/South Island scene, so the vibe is local but welcoming to visitors. Patrons can usually check the bar’s website or social media for the latest event listings and find that many dance or DJ nights have no cover (free entry) and rely on drink sales, while headliner nights and production shows have modest ticket prices (NZD 20–30 or more, depending on the act). Ticket pricing reflects the intimate scale: Lalaland isn’t an arena, so gigs tend to be affordable small-club shows. The common theme is live entertainment paired with a full bar – whether it’s a weekend party, a midweek showcase, or a special performance night.
Tickets and Booking
Buying tickets for a Lalaland event depends on the show. For free or open-entry DJ nights and casual bar events, no ticket is needed – just show up at the door or walk in. These nights act like a lounge that starts pumping music late. For events with cover (burlesque shows, headline DJs, festival-style parties, etc.), tickets are usually sold in advance. The bar itself does not have a traditional box office or ticket window, so people typically purchase through local ticket platforms, the venue’s social media, or by contacting Lalaland directly. Popular acts or collaborative events often post ticket info on websites or Facebook, and Lalaland sometimes works with promoters. It’s a good strategy to buy early for marquee shows: Lalaland’s capacity is limited, so well-known events can sell out. Many visitors report that tickets for “ticketed” nights often go on sale a few weeks in advance. In short, day-of walk-ins are fine for most DJ nights, but for shows or themed parties (for example, the annual drag cabaret or special DJ takeover) you should pre-book online as advised. Groups hosting private functions (such as bachelor/bachelorette parties, birthdays, or corporate bookouts) can also make bookings by emailing the management. Room or table reservations aren’t typical for regular service nights, but for tailgate-style parties Lalaland staff will accommodate large groups if arranged early.
Seating and Layout
The interior of Lalaland is an open-plan lounge with distinct zones. The long, narrow floor has the bar along one side and a modest stage/DJ booth toward one end. The rest of the space is filled with intimate seating areas and a dance floor. You’ll find high-top tables and bar stools near the bar, as well as leather couches, armchairs and low tables scattered throughout – all arranged to catch sightlines on the entertainer or DJ. In nice weather, folding glass doors open onto a raised outdoor deck overlooking the lake, so many guests gravitate there for sunset photos and outdoor seating. The deck is equipped with heaters and string lights, making it one of the venue’s most prized spots. Total capacity is fairly small—a couple dozen seats and room for standers. Usually it feels like 80–100 people can fit when it’s packed (standing room included), which helps keep events feeling cozy rather than cavernous.
There are no fixed reserved seats; seating is general admission and self-chosen. That means early arrivers can snag couches or desirable high tables. If you prefer to listen from a seat, head for the back couches or the deck tables, which also tend to have quieter acoustics. The bar-height stools along the counter offer a front-row vibe, whereas the chairs near the middle of the room are good for mingling but close to kickoff of music. The DJ booth is elevated slightly, and the sound system is high-powered; some people stand by the dance floor or near the speakers to really feel the bass. A handful of side tables by the entrance are sometimes used by large parties who reserve them informally, but there isn’t a formal VIP roped-off area beyond that. In practice, a group can ask staff about setting aside a cluster of couches for a special occasion, and the crew is usually accommodating for birthdays or events. Keep in mind the building is long and narrow, so the angles vary: if you want the very best 360° lakeview, the back deck is ideal; if you want to be where the speakers are loudest, stand toward the front of the dance area; to avoid the noise and chat, sit in the armchairs on the side wall near the bar’s center. Overall Lalaland’s layout is flexible – on dance nights a lot of chairs are moved aside to clear space, while on chill nights the furniture is all pushed together. The acoustics are fairly good for a small club space, but it’s loud when music is on, so choose your spot accordingly. One thing to avoid: the outdoor deck can get very windy after dark and is partially open, so if the night is stormy it may not be usable (in which case all seating is forced indoors). But in good weather the deck is a prized, UV-safe vantage point.
Getting There and Parking
Lalaland Lounge Bar is located at Level 1, 99 Ardmore Street, Wānaka. The entrance is up a staircase at the rear of the building. From Ardmore Street (the main road through town), look for the alleyway next to the Paloma Taqueria and walk down into the courtyard behind the shops. You’ll see a sign or neon “LaLaLand” signage pointing to a stairwell on the left side of a small parking area. If in doubt, use a map: it’s right across from the Lakeside Carpark (the old Log Cabin car park) and opposite the ferry terminal by the lakefront. Many visitors actually approach via the water’s edge – a 2-minute stroll from the town pier or lake promenade takes you up to the bar’s back entrance.
Driving and parking: Wanaka offers a mix of paid and free parking near downtown. There is a small rear car park immediately behind Lalaland (the oneoff lot beside the alley staircase), but it has very limited spaces and is mainly for staff or quick drop-off. Street parking is available on side streets like Ardmore or Lismore, but some spots have 60- or 120-minute limits (and campervans are now generally prohibited in that area, by council signs). The nearby Lakefront Car Park (100 Ardmore Street) charges a fee for parking, but is just 50m from Lalaland’s alley – useful if you plan to park all day (it’s open 24/7, with a pay machine). For free parking, locals often recommend the large long-term lot directly north of Pembroke Park (on Dungarvon Street) or the side streets around the Wanaka Recreation Centre, both a 5–10 minute walk away. On popular nights, car parks can fill up, so ride-sharing or taxis may be more convenient.
Public transit and rideshare: There is no local city bus system in Wānaka, but the main long-distance InterCity bus service stops at Lakefront Carpark (100 Ardmore, right below the union building). From there it’s a very short walk to Lalaland. The stop for Wānaka-Wellington or Wanaka-Queenstown buses is effectively at the Log Cabin, so any coach arriving into town will drop you off just across the street from Lalaland’s entrance alley. For travelers flying in, the nearest airport is Wānaka Airport (NZWS) about 12km south; as of 2023 there is no dedicated shuttle or train, so travelers typically rent cars or take taxis between Wānaka, Queenstown Airport or Christchurch.
Taxi and ride-share services do operate here, especially during peak tourism season. A popular local taxi company runs cabs in Wānaka and Queenstown, and smartphone ride-hailing (Uber or Ola) works if drivers are available (Uber Eats is active, so chances are you can get a lift request too). The best drop-off point is on Ardmore Street itself – right by the lane entrance – so tell your driver “Ardmore Street, Lalaland level 1 via stairs.” (The driver can pull into the private lane and let you out at the stairwell.) Note that after late-night shows, the last InterCity bus may have passed, so plan taxis or rides in advance if you’re heading to a hotel.
Inside the Venue
Once inside Lalaland, expect a vibrant lounge atmosphere. Entry is from the rear stairwell; the doormen or bartenders will typically check IDs if it’s an R18 event or late evening night. Security is generally friendly and informal for normal nights, but at big parties you might see a bouncer making sure no one underage slips in with the adult crowd. There is usually one main bar running most of the length of the room (stocked with taps for seven local craft beers, multiple wines and dozens of spirits) and a smaller cocktail “trolley” bar for custom shakes. The bartenders are well-trained – they mix everything from classic cosmopolitans to custom seasonal drinks (look out for menu specials like the cocktail of the week, or local ingredients like Manuka honey and alpine berries). In fact, house-made ingredients (like their famous lemon liqueur and cordial infusions) are a highlight of the menu. Service is walk-up: you order at the bar and the staff usually memorize faces quickly, often chatting with guests.
Ambience: Lalaland’s decor sets a fun mood. The lighting is dim and colourful – party-mode LED uplights and neon signs set the tone, rather than bright overhead lights. Sit down for cocktails under vintage-style pendant lamps, or watch the sunset through the roll-up garage doors by the deck. Music is a core feature: on dance nights expect loud, high-energy beats accompanied by a synchronized light rig. On quieter evenings there might be live acoustic or soft music playing in the background. There is a small raised corner where DJs set up, occasionally with a tiny stage for solo performers. Crowds tend to mingle rather than sit in silence; even seated guests feel the beat. Restrooms are clean and located upstairs – look for a sign on the main floor pointing toward them. Many guests leave their coats or bags on an open rack by the bar or at their seating area (there is no formal cloakroom, so keep personal items close).
Food and drink options: This is primarily a bar, not a full restaurant. You’ll find a few snack options like bar fries or share platters, but full meals aren’t the focus. Instead, the kitchen offers quick bites (cheese boards, olives, chicken wings, etc.) timed to pair with drinks. Many local groups treat it as a “bar crawl” stop – often people eat their main dinner upstairs or at neighboring eateries, then come here for cocktails. If you have dietary needs (vegan or gluten-free), the bartenders often help modify a snack or pour something appropriate; they also have some local ciders and sans-alcohol beers for those who prefer no alcohol. Expect standard Kiwi bar policy: you cannot bring your own food or alcohol inside.
Connectivity: Lalaland may offer Wi-Fi but service is usually secondary to the social atmosphere (some guests turn their phones to airplane mode and just dance the night away). Mobile phone signal is generally strong – you can post pictures of the view or check rideshare apps without issue. If you need to plug in electronics or recharge, there are a few power points around the lounge, but they are in demand during busy nights. The music can get loud, so personal earbuds or earplugs can enhance comfort for sensitive ears.
Merchandise and Extras: On party nights, the bar sometimes sells event-themed merchandise (like branded T-shirts or glow sticks), especially for bigger DJ events. These items are usually displayed on a table near the entrance or at the bar. They also offer branded reusable cups for sale as souvenirs. Keep an eye out for giveaways on big nights; for instance, past events handed out freebies like stickers or drink tokens. This is the kind of place where you might leave with a souvenir cocktail glass or a mix-CD of the DJ set if you ask politely.
Nearby Amenities
Lalaland sits steps away from many of Wānaka’s downtown attractions, which is great for planning a complete night out. For pre-show dining or a coffee, the cafe K\u0101i Whakapai (a minute’s walk behind Lalaland by the lake) is a locals’ favourite for tapas, burgers and craft brews with lake views. Just around the corner on Ardmore Street are the Paloma Taqueria (creative Mexican street food), Fedeli’s Gelateria (amazing artisan gelato and pastries), and Pudding Wānaka (famous sticky date pudding café). If you want more fine-dining before a show, award-winning Kika Restaurant is a 5-minute walk toward the hotel mall; or for casual comfort food, try Big Fig Café Bar & Kitchen a block away.
After Lalaland events end (often after midnight), some options remain open late. K\u0101i Whakapai by the lake occasionally keeps a DJ going into the early hours, and the Federal Diner on Ardmore does a late-night menu as well. Taxis and rideshares can be called right from these venues. If you’re staying overnight, several hotels are within easy reach: The Moorings Hotel and Apartments and the boutique Edgewater Hotel are a 5–10 minute walk north along Ardmore, while the centrally located Ramada Resort (formerly Wanaka Hotel) is two blocks south at the lakefront. Guesthouses and motels (Warwick Green and Alpine Motel) line nearby Lambert Lane as well. If you plan to drink, consider walking or brief taxi rides back to your lodging; R18 rules apply so minors will need adult supervision if on site after dark.
In terms of timing, it’s smart to arrive about 30–45 minutes early for a show. That gives you time for dinner nearby, a pre-drink walkway around the lake, and comfortable seating at Lalaland before the crowd (Wānaka is small so “rush hour” to a bar is relaxed, but the best spots can fill quickly on a Friday or Saturday). Public bathrooms exist in the Town Centre, but once you’re in the bar, their restroom is the only facility – so visitors often refresh at hotel bars or cafes just before coming. Lastly, if you need a small grocery store or pharmacy (for sunscreen or medicines before a long night), these are on Ardmore Street within a couple of blocks. All in all, Lalaland’s location is central and convenient, with plenty of food, lodging and drinking options within a two-block radius.
What Makes This Venue Special
Lalaland Lounge Bar stands out for blending Wānaka’s outdoor beauty with an urban cocktail lounge feel. The view alone is legendary – the upstairs deck looks right over Lake Wānaka against a backdrop of mountains and sky, so grabbing a sunset drink here is almost a local rite. Unlike many bars in a small town, Lalaland put quality cocktails and craft beers front-and-center: house bartenders experiment with local ingredients (like juniper berries from Mt. Aspiring National Park or alpine honey), and all spirits are mixed in-house. This “dedication to craft” gives Lalaland a unique flavour: one review quotes a traveler saying it’s “the best bar I’ve been to” and highlights the stunning decor and drinks.
On the cultural side, Lalaland has hosted memorable moments in the community. It’s one of the few year-round live-music venues in Wanaka, so it supports local DJs and performers that might otherwise only play in Queenstown. Its winter parties help ward off the town’s off-season lull; and it’s tiny enough that these events genuinely feel like neighborhood gatherings. Over the years, the bar’s friendly staff have become local celebrities – one named bartender (“Shannon” was frequently praised in TripAdvisor reports) even received marriage proposals behind the counter. It’s also a Bermuda Triangle for the jet-lagged or adventure-seekers: some skydivers or skiers end up rubbing elbows here after dropping from the clouds.
Architecturally, Lalaland is not a grand historic building but it creatively uses its modest space. It transformed a third-floor warehouse room into a club, adding warm woods and reclaimed furniture to give it mid-century hip lounge vibes. This personal, hands-on decor gives it soul. In short, Lalaland matters because it’s where art, nightlife and natural scenery intersect. Travelers love it for capturing the magic of Wānaka in one place, and locals love it for giving them a reason to stay up dancing on winter nights. Lalaland has even been described as a “home away from home” – it’s built community buzz while remaining unmistakably Wai-tō-u (Wanaka) in personality. In a town known for hiking and nature, Lalaland ensures the indoor scene feels just as legendary.
Visitor Tips and Information
Accessibility: Lalaland is tucked upstairs in an older building and unfortunately has no elevator. Access is via a steep staircase from the car park, so it is not wheelchair friendly and could be challenging for those with mobility issues. They do have railings and reasonably wide steps, but if stairs are a problem, consider calling ahead – staff may offer limited ground-floor seating in an adjacent area (as they sometimes open the cafe downstairs) or suggest another nearby bar. The basement of the building also houses a bottle shop (“Lalas Cellar Door”), but that does not have seating.
What to Bring: If attending an evening event, make sure to bring valid photo ID (passport or driver’s license). Lalaland can (and will) check IDs for any event after 8 pm, and entry is strictly 18+ (New Zealand law requires showing ID every time if you look under 25). There is no cloakroom, so carry only the essentials: a small bag or nothing at all is easiest. The bar is slightly air-conditioned in winter but open-air in summer, so dressing in layers is smart. It gets chilly on the deck late at night, so a light jacket or scarf can make the view more comfortable. For dancing, flat shoes are a good idea – the floor is hardwood and gets lively. Cameras are welcome (it’s a visual spot), but professional photography or video without permission is discouraged. Feel free to snap selfies on the deck or inside; if a photographer shows up for a specific event, they usually notify guests that photography is underway.
Common Mistakes to Avoid: A very common tip is that first-timers shouldn’t park illegally on Ardmore hoping to dash in; you will almost certainly get ticketed. Also, don’t expect to eat a full meal here – if you want dinner, do it at a nearby restaurant first. Some visitors arrive too late and find the lounge packed, so show up early if you want a guaranteed table or front-row spot. ANZ dress is generally casual but tidy – swimwear or just a towel is not allowed, for instance. Lastly, typical Kiwi courtesy applies: manners go a long way. The bartenders are busy and friendly, so ordering one drink at a time and saying thanks means you’re on the friendlier side. Tipping is not required (in fact, it’s uncommon in NZ bars), but you can offer small change if the service earns it.
Experience Enhancers: For a better night, know that Lalaland can get smoky on busy nights (it’s a closed lounge with many drinkers), so if someone in your group is sensitive to smoke or crowds, consider sitting near an entrance or the outdoor deck. Earplugs are a good standby if you plan to dance near the speakers. To capture the famous view, aim to be on deck about 10–15 minutes before sunset. On production event nights they sometimes have giveaways or drink specials (e.g. discounted craft beer flights or shot deals at midnight), so keep an eye on social posts or ask the bartender upon arrival. And don’t hesitate to engage with the staff – Lalaland is known for its friendly vibe, and bartenders often share a good drink tip or chat about local lore.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get tickets for an event at Lalaland Lounge Bar?
Most nights have free entry so no ticket is needed – just pay when you order at the bar. When shows require tickets, they’re usually sold online through local event platforms or announced on Lalaland’s social media. There’s no box office at the venue, so check community event sites or contact the bar directly for ticket links. For big parties, it’s wise to buy early because capacity is limited.
What is the typical price range for drinks and tickets?
Drink prices are moderate for a bar-cocktail venue – expect cocktails in the mid-$10s to $15 NZD, local beers in the $8–12 range, and wine by the glass around $8–12 as well. Snacks or bar food are in the $6–$15 range. Most nights have no cover charge, but special events or performance shows typically charge anywhere from $10 to $30 NZD for a ticket. Check individual event announcements for exact pricing.
Where is Lalaland Lounge Bar located exactly?
It’s at 99 Ardmore Street in Wānaka, on Level 1 of the building. The easiest way to find it is to look for the alleyway beside Paloma Taqueria on Ardmore. Walk down the alley toward the back carpark, turn left and go up the stairs with the Lalaland sign. You end up on an upstairs deck entrance. It’s just across from the Lakeside (Log Cabin) Carpark and very close to the lakefront.
What parking options are there near Lalaland?
There’s very limited parking right at the venue (a small rear carpark behind the alley, mostly private). For street parking, Ardmore Street and nearby side streets have paid zones or time limits. The nearest large lot is the rental-car “Lakefront Carpark” at 100 Ardmore (it’s paid but always available 24/7, and just a few meters from the front entrance). Many locals opt to park a block away for free (for example, on Dungarvon or Sinnott/St Johns Streets just beyond the lakefront pools and park, then walk 5–10 minutes). Be sure to read any posted signs – now campervans generally cannot park on Ardmore all day. Rideshares and taxis are also popular ways to avoid parking headaches.
How can I reach Lalaland by public transport or rideshare?
Wānaka does not have a city bus, but InterCity coaches stop at the Lakefront (100 Ardmore Street). From there it’s just a 1–2 minute walk up Ardmore. Uber and taxi services operate in Wānaka – the drop-off point is Ardmore Street by the alley entrance. If you’re flying in, the nearest airport is Wānaka (about 12 km away) and you would arrange a shuttle or taxi from there. Most locals simply drive or walk from nearby accommodations.
What should I wear when visiting Lalaland Lounge Bar?
Dress code is quite casual or smart-casual. Jeans and a nice shirt or dress are perfectly fine. There’s no strict attire requirement, but remember Lalaland turns into a nightclub vibe at night, so you may want to step it up a bit on party nights. Comfortable shoes are a good idea, especially if you plan to dance (the floors are hardwood). Warm layers or a light jacket are recommended when heading to the deck at sunset or late evening. On rainy or very cool days the deck seating might close, but no special footwear is needed inside.
Are children or minors allowed in the venue?
Since Lalaland is primarily a bar, entry is limited to those 18 years or older (the legal drinking age in NZ). ID is checked for anyone who looks under 25, even for early evening events. On occasion, daytime events or functions (like a family celebration) might include children, but as a rule children are not the target clientele. It’s safest to plan for an adult-only visit, especially at night. If you have any doubt (e.g., a brunch event), call ahead to verify if children are OK.
Does Lalaland have wheelchair access?
Unfortunately, no. Lalaland is accessed only by an outdoor staircase up to Level 1, so there is no lift or ramp. If stairs are an issue, you may need to enjoy the venue’s offerings from outside or choose a ground-floor bar instead. During open hours, sometimes the ground-floor cafe (K\u0101i Whakapai) will shuttle drinks outside if asked, but the lounge itself is not wheelchair-accessible.
What is the age policy and ID requirement?
All guests must be at least 18 years old to enter (regardless of whether they drink). Lalaland follows NZ liquor laws strictly. Bring valid photo ID (passport or driver’s license) if you look under 25 – bartenders will check for any entry after about 8–9pm on most nights. No exceptions are made, so make sure you carry your ID on event nights. If it’s a special family-friendly listed event (rare), rules may vary, but as a rule plan on it being 18+ only.
Can I bring my own food, drinks, or equipment?
No outside food or alcohol is allowed inside Lalaland. It’s a liquor-licensed venue, so you must purchase drinks (and bar snacks) there. Large bags and backpacks are discouraged for security reasons; if you’re carrying heavy gear (camera equipment, for example), best to drop it elsewhere or check with staff first. Recording equipment (like DSLRs or GoPros) is usually okay if unobtrusive, but professional filming requires prior permission. Please note, indoor smoking is banned by law – smoking is only allowed in designated outdoor areas (for example, on the deck when it’s open). Vaping follows the same rules as smoking.
What food and drink options are available?
The bar specializes in drinks, not meals. You’ll find a full cocktail menu, wine list and craft beer taps. Non-drinkers can order non-alcoholic cocktails or soft drinks. As for food, the offerings are light bar snacks – think share platters, chips, chicken wings, and a few heartier bites. They rotate a small menu of snacks or flatbreads. For a full dinner, it’s better to eat beforehand at one of the nearby restaurants. Lalaland’s kitchen is more about complementing your drink with a nibble.
Is there a coat check or storage available?
No formal coat check. Guests typically keep coats and bags under their chairs or in the seating area. On cold nights, the outdoor deck has some coat hooks. During busy events it’s best to hold onto valuables or leave them in a secure car or hotel, as space is limited.
Is Wi-Fi available inside the bar?
Lalaland occasionally offers a public Wi-Fi network for patrons, but the signal can be spotty when the room is crowded. Many people find it faster to use their mobile data. Wi-Fi details (if available) are posted on a sign at the bar or you can ask a server. Don’t count on Wi-Fi for streaming video; it’s best for checking messages or ride-share apps only.
Does Lalaland stay open late, and what are the hours?
Lalaland is one of the few places in Wānaka that stays open into the early morning. On most nights it opens in the late afternoon (around 4pm or 5pm) and the kitchen may close a bit earlier, but the bar stays open until 2:30am. Music events often run until closing. In quieter times or weekdays it may open closer to 5pm instead of late afternoon. Always double-check via a quick call or online update, but expect it to be one of the last venues still pumping at 2:00am.
Can I reserve a table or space for a group?
General seating is first-come, first-served and there’s no online booking system. However, if you have a large party (birthday, work function, etc.), you can email the managers (as noted on their site) and they may arrange a reserved section or private booking. Group bookings often come with drink packages or special menu if planned in advance. For casual nights, just show up early with friends and the staff will do their best to accommodate your group in one area.
