Red Light District at 123 Victoria Street in Christchurch is a hidden speakeasy bar accessed behind a laundromat facade, featuring striking Chinese-inspired interior design with beautiful red lanterns evoking turn-of-the-century Shanghai. The quirky venue combines the aesthetic of a secret opium den with an excellent cocktail program, offering unique and thoughtful drinks at good value. Open 5pm to midnight, it provides dim lighting and an intimate setting, with snacks available from the nearby You Hanoi Me Vietnamese restaurant.
