It was opened as a bar after the construction of the new recreation centre near the central campus, and acted largely as a "sports bar". The walls were lined with honours boards of past students who had represented New Zealand sporting teams, and representative jerseys donated by these sportspeople. The bar was rebranded in the mid-2000s as The Home Bar, and then Don Llewellens, a.k.a. the Don, named after the universities first vice-chancellor, with the emphasis on sport greatly reduced.
