“Visiting the city and found an excellent spot for exceptional coffee. On a sunny day, the best place to enjoy it is the outdoor terrace upstairs - quieter, more spacious, and refreshingly open, perfect for a leisurely breakfast and long conversations. The service is warm, welcoming, almost joyous, with staff who appear genuinely enthusiastic, accommodating, and efficient. Though the space is compact, the atmosphere is full of heart. Had a very lovely experience here. Thanks Frank’s and Wellington!”

“Get ready for the hustle and bustle. Lots of people, lots of beautiful fresh fruit and veggies. Easiest with cash but a few vendors are taking money cards. Decent size market, huge variety, best quality.”

“I was researching some computer stores online and looking for a company to build my first gaming pc. PB Tech's prices was the best overall. So, I popped in at the Petone branch and Nick, the sales guy, was friendly, offered some great tips and excellent service. He helped build my rig that was in my budget. Parts had to be ordered and within a few days, the technician assembled the pc. He notified me when it was ready for collection. Great service guys.I will need some extra gaming hardware in the future and will definitely be shopping at PB Tech. Thanks”

We are just visiting the area for a short time so could not buy much but my daughter was pleased to find VerMints (the ginger mint flavour, which I was first introduced to by a friend in the US and they can be hard to find in NZ), coconut water, and Proper Crisps corn chips (which can be hard to find in our home town). We also got some Clipper tea advent calendars for her and her sister later this year.”

“I have not tried many types of wors but I have never had any better than what Basie makes. A South African once told me he makes the best wors outside South Africa, and I can believe it. Start with the boerewors ('original flavour') - and go in on a Friday if you want it fresh instead of frozen. I also recommend the currywors, chilliwors, and garlic vors.”
