“Kilbirnie Park is a versatile and well-maintained green space in Wellington, perfect for both recreational activities and community events. The park boasts spacious fields that cater to a wide range of sports, including rugby, soccer, and cricket. These fields are regularly used by local clubs, schools, and casual players, making it a hub for sports enthusiasts of all ages. The park also includes an athletics track, which is ideal for runners and athletes looking to train. One of the standout features of Kilbirnie Park is its family-friendly environment. There’s a well-equipped playground that’s perfect for younger children, offering a safe and fun space for them to play. The park’s wide-open spaces also make it a great spot for picnics or leisurely walks. It’s dog-friendly, so many locals enjoy taking their pets for a stroll. The park’s location is very convenient, being close to Kilbirnie’s shopping area, bus routes, and other amenities. The nearby Wellington Regional Aquatic Centre is an added bonus for those looking to swim or relax after some outdoor activity. While the park is generally well-maintained, the fields can become a bit muddy during the rainy season. Overall, Kilbirnie Park is a fantastic community asset, offering something for everyone—whether you're there for sports, family time, or simply enjoying the outdoors.”

“Lanes was a great spot for a quick bowling session and some drinks! We had some free time before heading to the airport, so we stopped by for a game of bowling—some of us grabbed drinks too. It was a great time! The place has a cool vibe, with retro games adding to the fun. The bowling lanes also have a unique touch with blue lighting, which gives it a different feel compared to most bowling alleys. The staff were awesome as well. Would definitely recommend stopping by if you have some time to kill and enjoy some retro games!”

“Great food. Lovely garden centre and gift shop. They have a big range of plants and gifts.”

“We were served by a lovely young lady in the paint department who helped us find the right paint to match the small sample we gave her. She was very professional and went out her way to find what we needed. If we could remember her name we would recommend people go see her.”

“Patrina went above and beyond, I'm in debt for how awesome her and staff were! Daughter 6 years old bday asked for toy called Furreal Friends Snackin' Sam The Bronto, and she was super helpful in agreeing to help, while I arranged a courier to be shipped for Auckland. I really appreciate her help in making my daughter's day. And she provided the toy at a discounted rate, which was a nice unexpected bonus. Highly recommended, thanks! :D”

“Nice trail with beautiful scenes”

“Hello, I came in the other day and met a worker named Joe he was lovely and helpful thank you so much Kmart for your amazing customer service”

“Frequent visitors to this store because of how well catered it is for kids. Our 3 year old had an accident at Bunnings Petone on the weekend and the staff were so incredible - knew the process,everyone helped accordingly and followed up with a phone call later that day and a gift sent via post. Couldn’t have felt better looked after and cared for - thank you team !!”

“It's a huge outdoor playground with an older kids area, younger kid locked and fenced area, and an accessible toilet. The facilities are well maintained and all functional. The toilet and the playground are clean and tidy. There's ample free off street parking right at the entrance of the park.”

“Staff are bubbly and very kind - man behind register literally singing songs and cheerful. They had many well known branded clothing and it was not ridiculously priced. Store is very clean and changing rooms are spacious. Doors automatically open which is helpful when walking out with your hands full of items purchased :)”

“Good indoor play for kids. Nice friendly staff too.”

“Perfecto. Staff were awesome. Some noise inside by inconsiderate guests arriving late at night but no noise from outside at all. Location perfect, we flew at 6am. Have stayed probably 4 or 5 x now and have already rebooked for my next trip.”

“Really helpful staff and good range of fidget toys.”

“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.”

“Awesome store good prices large sizes available in store 3xl”

“Just want to say thank you so much to the young girl on security this afternoon around 5pm. She was super helpful, i had my baby as well as a full trolley and some chairs and other items to carry to my ute. She willingly helped me without having to be asked and did it all with a smile on her face. Big ups to her, 10/10 customer service.”

“Great place to buy all your stuff from groceries, clothing. Homewares, toys even printing as warehouse stationary is inside”

“Good open late so always go shopping here after work”

“Brilliant experience with the Porirua Rebel staff - so very helpful! One item we were after wasn't available, and they helped me order it online with free shipping.”

“Short & not too steep walk from the Khandallah pool. Park bench to sit, take in the views & say things like "gee that's a nice looking place" & "wow I wish I lived there!"”

“Today I witnessed a verbally aggressive man try bully the only staff member in the store. The staff member handled the situation well. The aggressive man left before the police got there. The salesman was calm and cool afterwards. He's a credit to Toyworld.”
