The Auckland is a local community pub not far from the seafront. On the Netley Road side there is a wonderful ‘Longs Brewery’ Victorian tiled frontage in a striking mix of colours (photos 1 & 2). This was the original pub with just one bar. There is more Longs tiling at the Bold Forester not far away.
At some point the pub expanded into the building next door fronting Auckland Road. This is a real contrast, also quite old, but with a plain beige-painted facade in front of a pleasant garden (photo 3).
Live music is popular here with acts appearing a few times a week.
