At Freida Margolis, we take pride in showcasing talented musicians and creating unforgettable evenings filled with the joy of music.

With influences reminiscent of the legendary Ramsey Lewis, Joe and his jazz trio are sure to captivate your senses. Mark your calendars for Thursday, August 31st at 8pm and be prepared to contribute a $5 koha to support these incredible musicians.
Thursdays at Freida's are synonymous with our beloved jazz trio. This week, we have a special treat for you as Love Square takes the stage, bringing together funky horns, a bank of keyboards, a trumpet, and an infectious beat. Finn Scholes, Nick Atkinson, and Al Deverick are no strangers to the local music scene, and their performance promises to deliver an unforgettable night of frightfully good vibes. Limited tickets are available, so make sure to secure yours and join us on Saturday night for a musical experience like no other.
On Thursday, May 11th, starting from 8 pm, we invite you to immerse yourself in the soulful sounds of Auckland's hottest young jazz guns. For just a $5 koha, you can enjoy an evening of Gypsy Swing Jazz performed by some of the country's finest practitioners. Asher Truppman Lattie on clarinet and saxophone, Phillip Beatson on gypsy guitar, Travis Hill on la pompe guitar, and Djordje Nikolic on double bass will transport you back to the heyday of Django and the 1930s-40s era. Don't miss this opportunity to witness their exceptional talent firsthand.
Every Thursday at Freida's, we create a relaxed and intimate ambiance, allowing you to unwind and enjoy live music at its finest. Whether you're a jazz enthusiast or simply looking for a night out filled with great food and entertainment, Freida Margolis is the place to be.

Reviews
"Walked here after dinner Sunday night thinking great place for a night cap, didn’t realise they were holding ticketed event, nothing mentioned on the outside . Cautiously walked in to have a look only have the a rude guy push us out with no chance for us to say anything. In hindsight wish I heckled. Rude and uncalled for. Lucky the bar down the road was open and very accomodating. 0/10 wouldn’t recommend"
"Entered not realising the bar was holding a ticketed event.Really rude staff member pushed us out. Asked if we had a ticket, then said you need to leave without giving us a chance to say a word. Definitely need to work on how they treat people really disappointing behaviour."
"Not many bars boast an atmosphere like this one, old jazz style with great drink options, the barman really knows what he's doing! Records playing, piano playing, sheltered outdoor area. All round a super spot for a drink!"
"Came here for a jazz night - wonderful vibe, wonderful staff, yummy pizza, yum cocktails. Only gripe would be the small tables that couldn’t fit much food/drinks at once but the place is meant to be intimate! Was a $5 koha for the live music but if you didn’t want to pay that you were still able to be seated outside."
"Had such a wonderful time last night, it would be unjust not to make it known! The staff have perfected the art of hospitality. The baba ganoush was delectably smokey and our cocktails were faultless. An absolute treat, thank you!"
