Cinema in Napier

“Thank you to the lovely young girls who handed my car keys in that I had left in the bathroom at the cinema and handed into the helpful staff.”

“Very moving museum with good exhibits highlighting the history of Napier earthquake and of the Maori in the area.”

“Comfy seats and theatre warm. Ques long and could have done with more staff.”

“I really love going to the Hastings Focal cinema and cafe it is a awesome and good place Very Polite and kind service from the staff excellent clean up fantastic yummy and delicious food popcorn etc. and I just finished watching the Special advance screening of Final Destination Bloodlines with other People and the Movie was so good I want to watch it again. HASTINGS FOCAL CINEMA AND CAFE for me is the best one Let everyone know if I was star rate I gave it a 5 if it was more it will be a Big 10 star rate for me keep up the service staff.”

“Had a great night at the old mill in Napier with friends for the Murder Mystery night, great vibe, great venue and amazing food!”

“Cute little theatre, run by an awesome group with a wide range of plays”

“Fabulous little place, excellent atmosphere, fun production, friendly home town entertainment .... and we're new to the area! :-D”

“The best music venue I know. JR is an absolute legend with sound. Lucy is the best hostess and dressup officianado in the land. My second home. Great vibes, great sound, grear music, comfy couches and interesting people. Never a dull night. I love this place.”

“Although full restoration of the Municipal Building is incomplete, the Opera House, Foyer and Atrium conversion (to a fully operational function centre) restore the complex to a functional state capable of hosting large events and conferences. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and organised, willing and able to assist from planning to execution of your event. The Opera House acoustics remain world class, the upgrade has improved audience comfort while retaining its Art Deco era appeal. From a technical A/V perspective I did notice a small amount of noise from the venue power supply, but this was easily dealt with.”

“We had an amazing evening yesterday at the dinner and show to see Sister Act. Our first time but will definitely not be our last after watching this talented cast and the enthusiasm which was put into this show. The dinner was spot on and the wait staff incredibly friendly. Thank you all.”

“What a fantastic show-Pricilla Queen of the desert - cast and production were top notch and the enthusiasm and energy put forward was great. Please look at either 1. Replacing the seating or 2. having them re-foamed/covered..they really were v. Uncomfortable. The seats are well past their use by date !”

“Lovely small town theater experience. Great staff, great space, and all around a lovely facility.”

“Delightful little theatre with very comfortable seating. The screen is a decent size and the picture is always clear. The sound can be easily understood according to my hubby and for those, like myself who have difficulty hearing, there are headsets available. I use these in place of my hearing aids. There’s a reasonable selection of drinks including wine. We have not tried the pizzas which need to be ordered 20 minutes prior to the movie. Highly recommend checking out a flick here.”

“Went to the Heathers production, absolutely loved it, cute little theater and staff were lovely, coffee/tea and slices provided at intermission included in ticket price. Look forward to seeing future productions at this place”

“Great venue with fabulous stage. Dressing rooms and make up rooms are very good.”

“Thank you, Dave and Rachel for making us feel very welcome and made our stay in Napier really enjoyable. Great accommodation with comfortable beds. Highly recommend and will definitely be staying here again when I'm next in Napier.”

“The room and hotel were wonderful. Beautiful views, large modern clean room and a very responsive staff. It was in a great location with many dining and cute shopping experiences adjacent. The staff responsive and communicative and very helpful when I had trouble making calls on my own. They also provided a guest laundry service which was necessary after biking. I would highly recommend it and would come back again.”

“The perfect place to see a movie. Cheap, affordable with a great atmosphere and the staff are super friendly. Grab a bite before or after the movie at the restaurant located in the cinema building or you can get some munchies for the movie itself. Either way it's a great local experience and my wife and I feel so privileged to have a cinema right in town.”

“They have an awesome show on until 24th of November 2018 so get your tickets at eventfinda of door sale for razzle dazzle”

“I recently had this amazing platter, and it was absolutely delicious! The combination of grilled halloumi, falafel, rice, and the creamy sauces on top was just perfect — rich in flavor, fresh, and beautifully presented. The hummus and tzatziki were authentic and full of taste, and the bread was soft and warm, perfect for dipping. The manager was incredibly friendly and welcoming. He made sure everything was served fresh and checked in to see if I was enjoying my meal — a nice personal touch that made the experience even better. You can really feel the passion for good food and customer satisfaction here. Definitely a place I’d recommend to anyone looking for a hearty, flavorful Mediterranean meal and genuine hospitality. I’ll be back for sure!”

“Absolutely awesome service and advice from Azaria at the hastings store Highly recommend for make up and skin care”

The kitchen at Opera Kitchen takes a coffee-and-cabinet path and lets the food speak. Service moves quickly through the morning rush. Music and pace keep a casual tone. Team members keep things friendly and on task.

“Helpful and friendly staff. My purchase was carried out to my vehicle.”

“Fantastic service! I popped in on Sunday to speak to someone about a chair that my mother purchased - I believe it was faulty. We dealt with Tammy (who I believe was from the Hastings Store). She was brilliant to deal with, made the whole exchange process so simple, straightforward and painless. She was also extremely helpful in expediting this quickly, as our circumstances meant that time was in short supply. All the other staff were super helpful too. Can't thank you enough, Tammy, my Mum LOVES her new chair!”

“Amazing service here. Needed a replacement dishwasher and the team were able to recommend options that would fit in the same space, and get the right one for my budget. They also came and removed the old one and replaced it with the new one! I won't go anywhere else for appliances again, these guys are a 10/10 for customer service.”

“Janice was extremely helpful, and pointed me in the right direction straight away. Keep up the good work Janice!”

“Outstanding service. A Refreshing Change! My sister had a fantastic experience at Noel Leeming Napier today after a disappointing attempt to shop online with Bose. The team not only sorted out some Bose headphones quickly and efficiently but also sorted out an excellent price without hesitation. The manager went above and beyond – offering the kind of genuine, old-fashioned service that’s so rare these days. It was such a refreshing change! I’ll absolutely be shopping at Noel Leeming next time I’m back in the Bay. Highly recommend.”

“Great store! Ray was awesome to deal with and extremely helpful with my tech purchase. Highly recommend.”
