The ''Hillcrest Tavern'', located on the corner of Clyde and York St's, was once a great venue for live bands. Opening in 1969, until 1984 the pub was known as ''The Tavern Hillcrest'', but to students at the time it was more commonly referred to as simply ''the Tavern'', or for a time ''H-Block'' - a block [[the University of Waikato]] has had on its building plans since its inception (between G-and I-blocks), but still lacks to this day. By the 1990s the bar changed its name from ''The New Hillcrest Tavern'' to simply ''The Hillcrest Tavern''. By this time the terms ''the Tavern'' and ''H-Block'' had largely faded from the student vocabulary, being replaced by ''The Hilly''. Into the late-1990s, ''The Hillcrest'' was becoming less popular with the student population, who began to migrate into the city in greater numbers. <br> | The ''Hillcrest Tavern'', located on the corner of Clyde and York St's, was once a great venue for live bands.
