Woof!

Woof! is a queer-owned and run bar in the Ōtepoti CBD. Established in 2020 by Josh Thomas and Dudley Benson, Woof! has become a hub for the LGBTQI+ community, their friends, and their allies.

Our kaupapa is about providing a safe, fun, welcoming place for our people, and to advance the visibility of the rainbow people of Dunedin. We do not tolerate racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any kind of bullying. Genuine hospitality is important to us at Woof!, and we appreciate the different people that come to us as guests, and the support they give us.
