Outdoor pool in Wellington

“Really impressed with the service provided by the kitchen/laundry department. The Häfele flat pack cupboards and drawer units, and the Elfa shelving system turned our laundry from drab to fab. Now it's an awesome space with marvelleous storage!”

“We love the cafe in this Mitre 10. Their fries are much better than all other Columbus Coffee in town. Apart from the cafe, we look for interesting plants there as well. It never let us down.”

“5 star review for the lovely young Pasifika woman (apologies I didn't catch her name but wanted to make sure she was identified) who assisted me on the 25th of June around approx 5/6pm with my dehumidifier. I brought in my dehumidifier (almost at 2 years old) due to electrical faults and concerns, wanting to check my warranty and if I could get some help. Initially I was assisted by an older lady who misunderstood my request thinking I was after a return/refund, after I had specifically asked for some help with my machine that had sparked when I plugged in & was wanting to know if it was still under warrant and/or if someone could help fix it. She then proceeded to tell me I needed a receipt even after I showed my online contact with Mitre 10 noting the staff could call the shipping store upon arrival to assist and get the receipt details as it was an online order, but she told me to ring the store myself. As I went outside to grab the machine from my car & brought it back in with my daughter, I hear the woman telling the young lady I was after a refund/return which was in fact untrue, I quickly corrected her and this is where the young lady came in and helped me out. As I purchased online there was no physical copy but she was super helpful as I showed her the email contact with Mitre 10 & online details i could provide, The young lady got the initial staff member to call up the shipping store and was just super helpful and sorted it out fast and efficient. Great customer service, attentive, listened to what I needed and I was able to get a replacement as I was still within my 2 year warranty. The difference in service was visible & I think shes a great example of perfect customer service. Thank you very much to this young lady- approachable, super helpful and super happy with the outcome.”

“Great fun for the whole family. Slides, hot pills, sauna, steam room, waves, basketball hoop. Lots of fun”

“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.”

“Great venue, very polite young men manning the door last but not least congratulations to all the dancers”

“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!”

“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.”

“Nice trail with beautiful scenes”

“Love this place. I have raced model power boats here for many years on the river, a great challenging piece of water.”

“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”
