Cafe & Coffee Shop & Pub in Wellington

“My favourite coffee shop when I come to Wellington. The service is always great and their coffee is excellent. Look for their other location near The Reserve Bank of NZ of the Terrace. You can also buy their roasted coffee.”

“Went to watch the AB France game here last night . Great bar, good atmosphere, friendly staff and a nice platter to watch the game , would recommend”

“Probably the best Eggs Benedict (with mushrooms) I’ve so far had. Would definitely order again the next time I’m in Wellington 11/10 The chicken bowl didn’t convince me but my partner liked it and was happy. The large hot chocolate had just the right amount of chocolate flavour, just a shame it wasn’t a bit bigger. The flat white was very good and my partner was happy with it.”

“I absolutely love this place! My absolute favorite is the vegan flux bowl. It is delish, filling, healthy, and full of flavor. I recommend getting in early as during lunch hours they tend to sell out quick!”

“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 ☀️”

“Great place, we stopped on our way through Wellington to play a game of pool and have a jug. Great prices and friendly staff highly recommend!”

“Really good chicken and felafel kebab. It wasn't overloaded with soggy lettuce and carrot like a lot of kebab places tend to do. Service was fast and friendly. Atmosphere was typical of a foodcourt.”

“We had our wedding reception here and it was AMAZING! The functions manager, Chyanne has been amazing during the early planning, to figuring out the last minute details. They been very accommodating for guests who had dietary/allergies, and the staff that night were fantastic for making sure our reception was amazing! Would recommend and will come again for outings ”

“​My recent visit to the QT Hotel and Restaurant in Wellington was an absolute delight. The hotel's fantastic location made exploring the city a breeze. ​From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the beautiful atmosphere and the genuinely friendly, professional staff—especially Ray and Anthony, who were absolutely amazing. ​The food was just as impressive. The weekend high tea was an exceptional experience, with every tea and accompanying food item delicious and the service impeccable. ​Breakfast was a definite highlight. While the buffet was decent, the à la carte menu was sleek and memorable—I'm still dreaming about the egg benedict and the delicious mushroom dish. ​Dinner was just as stunning, thanks to a fantastic salmon dish and the breathtaking night waterfront view. As a seafood lover who usually avoids raw oysters, I was amazed by the one I stole from my friend—it was incredibly fresh, and the vinaigrette was a perfect touch. ​And the experience didn't stop there. The room was spacious and tidy, and I absolutely loved the bathtub. ​I was also pleasantly surprised by the value. Despite ordering a lot to try everything, I didn't find the prices horribly expensive. If you get the chance to visit Wellington, I highly recommend a stay at the QT to enjoy the amazing food, service, scenery, and the comfortable rooms.”

“Got hosted by Mark tonight. Wonderful chap, checked on top ups for drinks and food. made sure we were comfortable. Our original server didn't seem like she could be bothered after the order to meal check, but mark ensured we had a good time”

“Came here for dinner on Saturday and the food was delicious! We ordered pretty much the entire tapas menu and nothing was disappointing. The staff were also really friendly :) Great experience and will definitely be back.”

“The staff here were very friendly and accommodating for my friend and I with our babies and they brought over a high chair for us. The coffee & food was awesome and came out so fast. We ordered the full vege grill (don’t mind all that pepper in the photo I did that lol) and the house hash with salmon. I would definitely come back here.”

“The staff and chef were awesome. Lovely young team. Best dory and chips with delicious salad & vinaigrette. Simple food cooked perfectly. Price super reasonable. Thank you so much to the girl who served us (European accent) and the chef, who went out of his way.”

“Recently went in for burger Wellington, my wife had the burger and said it was great, I had the pie what can say about the pie it was amazing could not have been happier with the dish”

“Great coffee and a pleasant space showcasing the charm of the old bank.”

“Had a great family event at Speight's Ale House Petone. Thank you Rory, Karen, bar staff and kitchen for making our evening run so smooth with great service and food was delicious - the Lamb Shanks were a hit! Great customer service our family felt so welcomed and special. We got to enjoy a fun evening just catching up while flow of meals, addtional requests and drinks were served in perfect timing and accommodating our kids meals was wonderful. Thanks again Justin and Speight's team for accommodating our group and organising a set menu. We had a great time, will be back again.”

“I was invited and signed in by a friend and was pleasantly satisfied. Food was great.”

“Lovely last minute dinner on a rainy night. Wonderfully looked after by the team (Riley?) Was particularly good, and made us feel welcomed. All three courses and the cocktail were yum”

“Tried the Apple aloe flavour with pearls & aloe jelly…super tasty, refreshing & had the perfect sweetness & ice levels - would definitely recommend!”

“We rocked up a little late but great service (with a smile) greeted us. Wonderful atmosphere and warm on this windy winters night. Bottle of Cloudy Bay sauvignon blanc topped it off.”

“This is long overdue. Yesterday was Mojo Market Lane's last day. I will really miss their coffees - from Flat White to their Machiatto, I will definitely miss the lovely Asian lady Chef with her fare of perfect poached eggs, freshly roasted Chicken Sandwiches...Always given a royal treatment by the team at Market Lane and always given thoroughly enjoyable and pleasurable gastronomic experience whenever I had my breakfasts there! I hope the lady chef finds a very good employer in another good café! Thank you guys!”

“This restaurant was chosen because it offers gluten-free pizza, in addition to the breathtaking view that captivates both the heart and the eyes.”

“I would say the best bubble tea in town! This is my place to go ! Usually there at least once per week. Lovey staff, can recommend you some combos different from the menu if you ask for their opinion. Things that i really like about this place is the app that makes the order easy. Pay with your phone . How easy ! Dont need to bring your card. The place is aesthetically pleasing. Clean ans inviting. Some of my favorites are Thai milk tea, passion fruit, taro tea. I never had a bad service there . The staff is very attentive. They want you to enjoy the bubble tea experience and come back for more!”

“I have had lunch here on a weekday, and dinner on a Friday night but early. Both times I enjoyed the plant-based food and the atmosphere of the place. For dinner I had the fajita tofu bowl (pictured) - I cannot rant enough about how good and perfectly cooked their tofu is. Verrae nice: crunchy crust and not soggy. Both times I enjoyed having quite a few options to choose my meal from, and how fresh the ingredients are. It’s also handy that this restaurant is right on the beach, and handy for parking and the bus stops. Staff have been very responsive and helpful both times, so 5 stars it is! Will be back to try the other menu options.”

“Love Naomis coffees! Her Latte and Hot chocolate so delicious! Best hot chocolate ever! The milk texture & creamer on point! Had 3 hot chocolate today! Her coffees and smile just made my day! Pls let her know she’s doing an amazing job!”

“I visited this lovely little cafe on a daily basis while staying in Kelburn Castle. I welcomed warmly and have a problem with my request but unfortunately very unfortunate. He watches me treat them with others with the same cheerful patience and the clientele is varied. The food is excellent and the coffee superb. The best little coffee I've ever found.”

“A Nice Smooth Coffee - Top Notch The current staff now making the coffee are very polite and friendly, and the coffee is always consistently good. A handy place for tradies to drop in and grab a coffee and sandwich. Perfectly positioned next to the train station also.”

“We will be forever grateful to Weddings at Foxglove for our amazing wedding. Alley you’re an absolute dream to work with, you made our day so seamless and stress free. I recommend you everywhere and to everyone. Our friends and family are still talking about the food and service. There’s absolutely nothing we’d have done differently, thank you!”

“This pub is everything you could possibly want from a local spot. Great food, great prices, and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps you coming back. The staff are fantastic—friendly, attentive, and always up for a chat, which adds to the warm, relaxed vibe. Whether you're popping in for a casual drink, a meal with mates, or a weekend catch-up, this place delivers every time.”

“Floyd's Cafe is my go-to spot. The staff are super lovely, the food and coffee are delicious, and the prices are reasonable. It's got a nice, chill vibe that I love. Highly recommend checking it out—you won't be disappointed!”
