Food establishment in Wellington

“I ordered a box of sandwiches for an event the Lower Hutt team absolutely nailed it in 15min. Thank you to the team that was working as it was urgent and they didn’t complain they just got it done. Really appreciate you guys.”

“An amazing tasty lunch today at Ruby’s. I noticed it seemed like the whole place had improved . . . new outside tables, it felt clean, and the menu had changed. Then I was told it was fairly new ownership which made perfect sense. We sat outside on a beautiful Welly sunny day under an umbrella with my well behaved little dog. The lovely lady that has just moved down from Auckland was so helpful and friendly. She brought a bowl of water out for my dog straight away. Highly recommend, a happy experience with well priced super tasty food . . . you really can’t ask for much more than this ☺️”

“Great cafe. Ordered the new menu item, which was a fried chicken burger, which was absolutely delicious. The chips were also seasoned really nicely. Also had a great convienent location at the garden center. Will definitely come back!”

“Always the best food! Especially at all hours of the night. Lovely owners and workers :))”

“overall it was a delightful experience. The food was well worth it—the curries were rich and aromatic, and their stir‑fried dishes were packed with flavour. Portions are generous. The staff were warm, friendly, and genuinely helpful. As a slight note, the indoor seating feels a bit on the cooler side—quiet and calm, but with a chill in the air.”

“I really enjoy coming here whenever I’m craving something delicious and hot. The staff are always incredibly friendly, welcoming, and smiling when taking orders. The whole environment feels warm, inviting, and just genuinely nice to be around. The food is amazing — full of rich, complex flavours that tick every box for me. The waitresses are super kind, and even the chefs always smile and wave at customers from my experience. For the quality you get, the price is absolutely perfect. Highly recommend!”

“Best food i have ever had , specially malai kofta is yum. Can’t wait to have that again.”

“I have been to this venue twice now. On the most recent visit I had the Thunder burger. I like the atmosphere and the low-key concerts they host. The staff are friendly and efficient. I will continue to attend the concerts and enjoy the food at this cafe'.”

“Delicious French pastry treats, pies, salads, and cafe items. An amazing range of French inspired sweets and a cabinet of savoury rolls and panini that the staff will toast for you. A small selection of salads. Good coffee.”

“Handy of you work in town. Don't get put off by the long queue to checkouts. It moves quickly.”

“Checkout lady I think her name tag said maya was super helpful when I went to the wrong checkout and only had cash, she moved me to another one and was super helpful when I left something behind. She went out of her way to make sure my experience at Johnsonville Woolworths was awesome. Thank you Maya I will be back!”

“Came here for my birthday last night with 20 or so of us and the team handled it amazingly, food was delicious and very prompt and they were very accomodating to allergies which we appreciated immensely. Thanks so much guys”

“The staff were so brilliant: it was really busy pre FIFA game and they were all very cheerful, efficient and upbeat. Lovely people.”

“I went to Countdown Upper Hutt this afternoon. Rachel (stacking magazines) went out of her way to help me look for the item that I couldn't find. She made my day, very friendly staff member. Amazing customer service. Thanks, Rachel, for being so kind and helpful.”

“Went in for a coffee and got served by the small red haired girl. Super lovely girl made our experience enjoyable and made an awesome coffee! Looking forward to returning and getting the same level of customer service again.”

“I was visiting from Canada earlier in 2025 & met 2 gals, Jan and Jill at Cafe 180 Degrees. They were enjoying what seemed like a lovely breakfast. We chatted a bit from our tables & they invited me over. I loved the coffee and the egg dish which I ordered. Jan & Jill & I, then met once a week at Cafe & Bistro 180. I highly recommend the food there (loved the fish and Chips!) & will re-visit the Cafe the next time that I travel to N.Z. Sylvia”

“Great value, service is always faster than I expect, honest and tasty! Haven't tried their pizzas yet, but the coffee and bagels are great.”

“Our favourite place to eat, and we often travel from the Wairarapa just for Tequila Joes!!! Highly recommend the buffalo wings, with the classic buffalo sauce, plus Chipotle beef for main. Awesome selection of drinks, great music, love the staff.”

“Its actually my 3rd time. Their food is consistent when it comes to taste and serving,. You can also get free nachos by downloading the Mexico apps. Super delicious food. Will definitely come back here for moreeee”

“You won’t go wrong with Regals if you’re after authentic chinese cuisine or a fantastic spread of yum cha. They have a great variety to choose from their menu and are often packed, so do book in advance. Parking is ample around the streets however one inconvenience is the lack of an elevator, which might not be accessible for the elderly etc. I’ve also added some videos from chinese new year where they often have the lion dance performance which is entertaining for all.”

“Excellent, right on the water front, so spacious! Staff and food 10/10 loved it!!”

“Directly opposite Parliament, funny caricature statues, yummy food and nice staff.”

“Arrived in Wellington Sunday morning for a movie premiere and decided to have pre drinks, excellent customer service and friendly staff. NZ Actors FREDRICK POKAI & MARRIS COLLINS”

“We regularly come here with the kids, extended family and friends! We love the outdoor but undercover section. It’s warm even on a cold day! We so appreciate the kids area and try to book a table near it! The staff are always friendly, quick and efficient! We have several food allergies with the kiddos and it’s never been a problem here! Kids love it! The only negative is that there is not a dairy free option for kids dessert eg only soft serve. Would be fabulous to have another option even ice blocks.”

“Great American themed bar, with saddle seating at the bar and plenty of cowboy hats to go around! The decor throughout is great and in keeping with the theme and everywhere is clean. I was only visiting for a drink but the bar staff proactively pointed out the happy hour which was lovely. There’s a great atmosphere with the music and prices are reasonable too - one of the best bars on the street for me!”

“Went in on a cold Wednesday for some lunch and had the loaded hash bites. SOOOO good. Me and my boyfriend were raving about it on the walk home. 15.90 I think is very affordable for wagu brisket on hash bites. The meat was tender and the sauces were delicious. Very good customer service too. Very friendly and kind. Definitely would eat here again!”

“Good Sub. Staff was very quick and attentive.”

“We came in as a group of three, and it was just us here. The lady who greeted us had a lovely smile and was friendly. The food was very nice, sauce options very good- food can be a bit lacking but it does the job if you just want a simple meal. The bread that comes table side was very yummy. I loved the theming, wasn’t too loud. Felt very fancy in comparison to Auckland’s Genghis Khan. Thank you for your service! ❤️”

“Very Nice, store. Employee seemed a bit, but that was fine. The spider arrives bearing news, a message for you darling. Knock on the door, and the hawk, and the dog. This is for you. Always and forever, Cathy Jo.”
