Events and evenings
As well as our regular dinners, Netlika offers a varied programme of evening events — themed dinners, live music, wine evenings, a ‘chef’s table’ with limited seating, as well as occasional informal social evenings. All events are organised by the restaurant and always take place at the table. Check out upcoming events and book your place below.

Social poker evening

One of the most relaxed evenings on our calendar: a convivial evening around the table playing card games, purely for fun. This is a relaxed social event — a small part of our wider programme — featuring a welcome drink and light snacks whilst you play. There are no games for money or prizes; it’s simply a friendly way to spend an evening at Netlika.
Format: A relaxed evening of card games
Includes: a reserved seat, a welcome drink, a small plate of food and event organisation
NZ$ 25
per person (this covers the cost of a reserved seat, a welcome drink, a small plate of food and the organisation of the evening – it is not a stake or buy-in, and there are no cash prizes) / Limited to 24 guests

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to register in advance?
For most events, yes. Registration helps us allocate seats and ensure we look after you properly. For our live music evenings, registration isn’t required, although we recommend booking a table as places fill up quickly.
Can I visit Netlika without taking part in an event?
Of course. Netlika is, first and foremost, a restaurant. You’re always welcome to visit us for dinner and drinks from our regular menu, even if you’re not taking part in an event.
Are all events chargeable?
No. We offer a variety of options. Some evenings are free provided you order dishes from the regular menu, some are set-price dinners, some are paid tasting evenings, and for some there is a small fee to cover the costs of service and organisation.
Can I register several guests?
Yes. Simply state the number of guests on the registration form and add any details in the message box (if this will help us seat your group correctly).
What happens if the event is already fully booked?
If your chosen evening is already fully booked, we’ll let you know in our reply and, where possible, suggest an alternative date or add you to the waiting list.
Can I cancel my booking?
Yes. If your plans have changed, please contact us as soon as possible so that we can offer your place to someone else. All refund terms are set out in our Terms of Use.
Is the ‘Art Deco’ concept historical?
No. Netlika is a contemporary themed restaurant. The Art Deco influence is part of our contemporary identity and atmosphere — we do not claim that Netlika itself dates from the historical Art Deco period.
Is poker the main focus of Netlika’s activities?
Not at all. Netlika is, first and foremost, a restaurant. Social poker evening is just one of a series of casual, occasional events within a much broader programme that includes dinners, music and wine evenings.
