At Cobb at the Railway Station, the menu stays classic fish-and-chips, served with an easygoing pace. Sides support without crowding the star. Pricing lines up with the offer. Portions are generous yet well judged. Breakfast plates are tidy and satisfying.
Wish we had read reviews before visiting. We came here with our family after hearing about the robot service, which was very cool. Unfortunately the meals were a disappointment with a mix of hot and cold mains, and smallish meals (dinner). Wait staff were great but sadly a lost opportunity and we won't be back.
Cool little place to go for dinner, the staff were lovely and the robo staff were fun to watch. The food came very quickly even though they were super busy with graduation happening. We had the pork roasts, the meal was very nice but half of the veggies were rock hard and half were nicely cooked other than that we enjoyed our dinner.
We were gathered for a birthday and the service was impeccable, a young guy who looked after our large group well. The service was so quick and the food was excellent. Another Dunedin restaurant that I would come back for.
The food and the vibes keeps me coming back and recharged. When you’re tired from work, have a meal here and for sure you will feel replenished. The food serving was big and delicious. The vibes and atmosphere was fantastic. This month of the year, cherry blossom by the window with your amazing meal feels perfect!
Amazing place if you have children or a large group. The staff were all wonderful, including our robot waiters! We were a group of ten and all our food arrived promptly and everything correct. Prices were pretty steep for some of the meals but the food was still alright for what it was.
This place is amazing !!! The service was great, the atmosphere was relaxed, warm, and tidy. The steak was cooked to how it was asked, the fish had a great batter and very generous on proportion. Their chicken and bacon burger was also an amazing option. Great tasting batter on the chicken, good size and plenty of bacon. There's also a very cool waiter, you need to visit this place. Very much enjoyed it and have been back a few more times.
Exceeded our expectations for the most part! The Chicken Schnitzel & Battered Fish and Chips were amazingly delicious and were of very decent quantity in these inflationary times!! The drinks were absolutely on-point. However, the Weka Wings could be a bit better in terms of the crunch, taste and texture. Overall, 4.5/5 - friendly service, good food, nice drinks and amazing view from the window seats!
Wonderful customer service. The ladies were absolutely lovely & going above & beyond to make sure every customer was enjoying their time at the restaurant. My food was so delicious & very affordable!!! I really wanted Cobb bread which was a little disappointing when they didn’t have it, please advertise if you don’t have a meal so that customers know; although the ladies were lovely towards me about it. Also the BellaBot delivering food around the restaurant was so cute!!! I love how this restaurant is very futuristic! Will definitely return when I’m back in Dunedin & highly recommend visiting this restaurant.
Update 12/9/19 Seated and greeted quickly and warmly and served very promptly. Happy with the service of the staff! Spiced squid: very tender and crunchy on the outside yet not dripping with oil! Was likely too salty, and had a slight tang but not at all spicy. Really good savory herb flavour and made really well and complimented with a mayonnaise and lemon wedge. Would recommend this appetizer! 4/5 Lemon caper fish: not as tender as I hoped but certainly not dry and still held a lot of juice. It was paired well with the lemon pieces which were chewy enough to be eaten while alongside the fish. Not a bad choice but not something I'd go for on the daily. 3/5 Honey pork belly: the sauce was really tasty, tangy and sweet and the meat soft with the right amount of fat and lean. The lean meat wasn't dry as the flavour seeped just enough that it didn't make it bland. A good choice! 4/5 Sides: both dishes were accompanied with a small side salad and potato gravy which were standard, nothing special to mention. Overall had a good time, definitely come where for a good helping of pork belly with the first table special, that's what I reckon is worth! Very interesting ambience with cowboy west furnishings, some grass shrubbery, a children's section and a fish tank. Can't say I love it but it is interesting to look at, but was slightly dim and made it hard for me to focus. Ordered the Cobb carnivore with first table discount which includes angus beef steak 200g, ribs approx 4-6 pieces depending on size, fries (swapped for seasonal veg) and salad. Asked for angus beef steak to be medium and it was quite tough and a bit dry around the edges, the centre was softer and more tender but there wasn't enough flavor to combat the chewy-ness of the meat. The ribs were pretty dry and there wasn't even a lot of meat on the bone, the sauce was barely there either and not very succulent. wasn't really impressed with the salad either, it was bland and quite tasteless, and as for the seasonal veg it was just a few pieces of steamed broccoli, cauliflower and carrot, think that speaks for itself. Really mediocre, not really worth the full price let alone the first table discount in my opinion. 2.5/5 However, the saving grace of this meal was the honey pork belly which my friend ordered. It was a very generous portion of two thick cut pieces of pork belly with a very decent fatty to lean meat ratio. It was very tender and tasty, the honey flavour although not rich was enough to combat the fatty pork, but some parts of the lean meat was still quite dry. 4/5 for the good first impression. The flavor of everything and quality of meat can definitely be improved on. Booking through first table is a must, and although I wasn't impressed with the angus beef or ribs, I would like to try the pork belly again in the future to see if the quality is consistent.
OMG, what a magical place, so beautiful and tastfully decorated, incredible happy friendly staff, delicious food, I cant say enough of what an incredible time we had, THANK YOU SO MUCH, FOR A WONDERFUL NIGHT..
