Food establishment in Wellington

“Great store for homeware, price on the expensive side, great range and selection, from cooking, baking, to kids cutlery. Awesome place for gift ideas too. Highly recommend.”

“The only place I know that makes Kedgeree, a lovely moist rice dish with smoked fish - it is superb, definitely 5 stars. The photo doesn’t really do it justice. If I lived in Wellington I’d come here all the time. Great coffee too.”

“This is my first decent foods in NZ since visiting for ivermectin a week already. The portion size is big, the poached eggs were perfect.”

“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 wonderful birthday lunch at Picnic! I cannot thank Picnic Cafe enough for an absolutely fabulous 70th birthday lunch! It was Wellington on a good day and the roses were in full bloom. This is such a fantastic venue for Welly locals and especially for visitors. The service was outstanding with the manager and his staff graciously, attentively and very efficiently accommodating 26 exuberant family and friends. It worked beautifully for the group that each could select what they wanted for lunch and the atmosphere was relaxed and, well, picnic-y. It couldn't have been better! Highly recommended. Thank you to Paul Lester and J Paul and Picnic! Mary Dec 2025”

“Super delicious sweets, the lemon cheese cake is awesome like everything. The taste is incredible, coffee has a great strong taste. I love the shop. Staff is very friendly”

“A spacious supermarket with parking in the city centre. You can shop comfortably. The historic building next to it was also very nice. Thank you, New World!”

“Thank you for your help today finding a good whiskey and cigar combo customer service is outstanding!!”

“This place has a huge amazing selection of alcohol. They should do some taster sessions as some of the unusual products. Great staff member and knew his stuff.”

“I am a regular customer here for my weekly top up of the amber bead. There are a couple of handy parking spots. The staff are unfailingly helpful and cheerful and I've got to know them quite well.”

“Great service and great prices! They're the only bottle store I know of that carry Yankee Bourbon Co. brand spirits. What's so great about that? All their 1 liter spirits (vodka, rum, gin, whisky, etc) are just $30! And 37% at that; not bad!”

“Absolutely amazing! The staff are lovely, kai was top quality, you will not regret eating here. As a Maori the environment and energy made me feel right home!. ✨❤️ Gorgeous ocean view whilst eating was just a bonus☀️ Ngā mihi nui ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“The most beautiful kebab that I have in Wellington and Porirua area. They have choices of falafel, chicken, or lamb. You can also have it combine for extra dollar.”

“Our dog suddenly passed away this morning, we got in contact with these guys to arrange for our furry family member to be cremated, they were so kind and caring. We just want to say thank you to the receptionist who took good care of us and spoke some very kind words. It was hard for us to leave our girl but we knew she would be in good hands. You made our day a little better after our loss. Thank you so much”

“Great place with helpful staff and a huge range of produce and food charts.”

“The side salad for the toasted sandwiches and paninis is an absolute banger. It's so fresh and compliments the cheesiness of the toasties. Also the location is great with a good view of lambton for people watching and the staff is lovely.”

“Just moved to Wellington and this shop is amazing, they have all sorts of Mexican groceries, corn husks for tamales, mole, pipián or adobo, nopales or piloncillo, they have EVERYTHING!”

“nice place and we could buy the indomie, please provide us with indomie kari ayam more :)”

“There are 2 dairys (convienamce store) that sell food items in Hataitai. Milk, eggs tea, bags ... all your common things. This is the bigger of the 2. Also they sell beer and wine. A Lotto counter is there as well. Staff are friendly. Some things are expensive like meat, but if you are in need of something quick and don't want to go to Kilbirnie supermarkets this is convenient.”

“The atmosphere at this cafe was great for brunch and the food was delicious. The black pudding extremely delicious! The staff were externally friendly. I disagree with previous comments about small portion sizes, all the portions were generous Just a note that I think things are unsalted intentionally but this wasn't a big issue at all, plenty of salt on the table”

“Greeted by a lovely guy who was very friendly. Decided to sit outside despite the overcast weather instead of waiting for an inside table which turned out to be a good decision. The food & coffee was great. The staff were very helpful. Will definitely be back.”

“Every two weeks I'm at The Arborist for my BX Networking meeting and am about to have my son's 21st birthday celebration there. Everyone is lovely to deal with and the atmosphere is wonderful! The food and drinks are yummy. You can't go wrong at The Arborist!”

“The BEST store in Newtown! Amazing selection and so affordable”

“Visited Eastbourne on Saturday just for some ice creams for my grandchildren, and received THE BEST, customer service I have ever experienced in my life from the woman with the blonde ponytail and heavy eyeliner. Will definitely be back again.”

“A new find for us and we'll be back! Excellent coffee, friendly service, heaps of cabinet food options plus a small blackboard menu. And they now how to do proper crispy bacon :)”

“hiiiiii i saw this cafe on tiktok. i got a french toast and omg they were being generous w the portions but i was able to clear the whole plate. if i were u i’d order 3 bowls of their poached eggs !!!!!!”

“We were welcomed in by the owner, an awesome lady from Sicily Italy, she complimented us and made you feel welcome. Service and food just sooo good. Highly recommend and would love to visit again.”

“Second time visiting this place. Excellent food, and always attentive service. Had chicken and chorizo epanadas, bread with crushed tomatoes and basil, slow cooked lamb, salmon, paella croquettes and crema catalana”

“Have visited this café many times in the past and it's always been good. Their drinks are nice and hot and the cabinet and cooked food is great. I think the scones are especially nice here. I have never had an issue finding a table but it does get popular for business meetings, so if you go around lunch time it may be busy”
