Bar pub in Wellington

“A good place for beers after work, good selection of beers thar are regularly updated. Expect it to be busy if its straight after work, with it being quieter a couple of hours after. Don't forget to sample the beers if you aren't sure whether you like it, staff are helpful and knowledgeable”

“I frequent Panhead Tory fairly regularly as I live near by. Always love the beer and appreciate trying something different than their standard can range. Food is very good too. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.”

“Not sure why, but every time I attend a gig here, this kid in booty shorts tells me I'm too drunk to be served. It keeps happening. Quite annoying because every time I want a beer I have to leave the premises, go to Hotel Bristol, order from a grown-up, sink my drink in like 90 seconds then head back to San Fran, hoping I haven't missed too much of the set i've paid good money to see. I'd recommend some staff training.”

“Hidden gem in the heart of city, might take a while to find the entrance at the first time but totally worth taking the adventure! No menu offered but warm gestures by the bartender with his wide knowledge and play magic to the create the tasty cocktail based on your preference. Love everything here, such a great spot to enjoy a peaceful quiet time at the balcony overlooking the busy street”

“Been on my bucket list like forever, finally got to try it for the first time!! And oh my lord I should've come here earlier.... Food was great, staff awesome, coffee good. Had the scrambled tofu and it's so flavorful! Will definitely be coming back!”

“✅✅✅✅✅ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Deeeeeelicious!!! High quality ingredients, prepared to a high standard, presented authentically, and with perfect condiments to heighten the Vietnamese experience. Would recommend for: -Corporate entertaining -Date nights -Solo treats -Small gatherings The only thing to elevate this to flawless would be to have a mixologist to tie in the Vietnamese flavour profiles. We wouldn’t have left, and the bill would have happily been tripled.”

“What a cool little bar. Locate the sign on the street and walk up the stairs. The entrance has no real sign, there is just a closed door and when opened reveals a funky bar. Cool atmosphere, would be great in winter on a cosy winter night but we enjoyed it on a hot summers night. Just stopped for one drink but wish we could have stayed longer.”

“Since John took over, this pub has gone from strength to strength. He's added so many features (doggy biscuits and beers, kids play area, lots of board games, weekly food trucks, weekly quizzes) that have made it not only a family friendly, local pub, but also a destination. Offering some amazing beers, wonderful staff will take you into their care and ensure you can kick back and relax. Dog friendly, kid friendly, social team friendly, it really does offer do much! Thanks for everything team, we love you!”

“Excellent vegetarian burger options, the Albert was super delicious! Great giant curly fries. Quick friendly service.”

“Awesome pool hall vibe here. Went there when it was quiet, but there are so many tables here that it must be awesome when it is full.”

“You might need to sit outside or at an open area at night. When cold, take a warm jacket in case you need to sit in these areas. Food is delicious. Had WoP”

“Nice local pub. Drinks were good, staff were friendly, and the food was fast, hot, and tasty.”

“Good meals. Crispy chicken stack and fish and chips are great. Burgers are large and delicious. Crispy chips. I eat here far too often, very good.”

“Went to see the doors cover band, which was fantastic. It's such a great venue. As I have a spinal injury, I got there early to get one of the few seats available.”

“Great place to enjoy a beer on the bar seats. Good customer service asked for a 'good hazy', and that's what I got. He even cleaned up my sushi rubbish for me, which is pretty damn good. Beer was $13”

“Nice place to hang out and have a drink. Bartender is really cool.”

“Had the big brekkie and it was mean as. Everything was cooked spot on and the portion was solid. Good flavours, good vibes, and decent value for money. Sweet spot for a weekend feed, I’ll be back for sure.”

“Been here many times. Excellent pizza, and their hot chocolates are a spiritual experience - best in Wellington. Absolute must for anyone whether you're a local or from elsewhere!”

“Love their food! Hidden gem in Linden.”

“Absolutely loved this restaurant! There was a 12$ special from 4 to 6PM the night we went. The service was exceptional and there was such a nice atmosphere. The pasta plate did not deceive and I would strongly recommend this restaurant.”

“My partner and I usually go out once a month for dinner to restaurants around Wellington and we were delighted with this place! I have a gluten intolerance and the staff member that served us was super accommodating! I absolutely loved the cocktails, I had a tropical one with an ice block and a toasted marshmallow screwer. My partner had a yellow curry and I had the Bangkok Street Noodles and they even gave me some peanut sauce as I could have soy sauce and it went perfectly well with it! I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone and will be back! Thanks for a great night and experience!”

“OMG the "Pasion Ardiente (Burning Passion)" cocktail is the absolute BEST! Can ask for it to be less spicy if you want. Have never had such a delicious cocktail before, apart from my usual Pina Coladas. 1st time here, can't wait to come back. Great staff, atmosphere, and food looked amazing. We just came for drinks this time.”

“We hosted our book club in the upstairs room on a Monday night and Colin was super helpful, so accommodating and it was a good central spot for those working in town, while still feeling like we could escape for a couple of hours! We worked our way through a few of the non-alcoholic beer and gin offerings too; appreciated having options for those driving.”

“A great place to chill and enjoy the crowds (or army of suits). Very easy to get to, via bus or rail. Food was great beer was too only downside no Stella. Will come again soon :)”

“A place I'd walked past and never been in so, let's do it. Was bigger on the inside than I thought. Has a downstairs with pool tables, who knew. If you're a pokie machine person they have them. A few nice beers, an outside area. All good.”

“Big shout out to E, excellent service, he really raises the atmosphere! He needs a raise!”

“Great food—the chicken burger is fantastic and the portions are large. Convenient parking and lovely service from our server, Sharron. Will definitely return!”

“The owner is amazing. Always makes the customers feel so welcome. Best pub in Tawa.”

“QT Wellington is a fantastic stay. The service is warm and genuinely friendly, especially the team at the restaurant, which makes you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. The location couldn’t be better — just across from Te Papa museum and right in the heart of Wellington’s vibrant waterfront. I also loved the artsy atmosphere throughout the hotel, from the lobby, the bar to the rooms, which gives the place so much character. A great choice if you want both comfort and a creative vibe.”

“Coffee is A++ and I’m a coffee snob, was nice to finish a good coffee. I had chicken wings, while they’re were a tad oily they were still tasty and a decent serving! Had a chips on the side and that was also a decent serving and were very tasty, bonus points for not having dry wings. Partner had the chicken burger which he really enjoyed. Overall a really nice experience, the lady who served us was super polite and had fab hospo skills - very welcoming. Fire was also on so we were toasty warm. We will back back in the summer ☀️”
