Restaurant in Wellington

“Got hosted by Mark tonight. Wonderful chap, checked on top ups for drinks and food. made sure we were comfortable. Our original server didn't seem like she could be bothered after the order to meal check, but mark ensured we had a good time”

“Came here for dinner on Saturday and the food was delicious! We ordered pretty much the entire tapas menu and nothing was disappointing. The staff were also really friendly :) Great experience and will definitely be back.”

“The staff here were very friendly and accommodating for my friend and I with our babies and they brought over a high chair for us. The coffee & food was awesome and came out so fast. We ordered the full vege grill (don’t mind all that pepper in the photo I did that lol) and the house hash with salmon. I would definitely come back here.”

“The staff and chef were awesome. Lovely young team. Best dory and chips with delicious salad & vinaigrette. Simple food cooked perfectly. Price super reasonable. Thank you so much to the girl who served us (European accent) and the chef, who went out of his way.”

“A great restaurant serving delicious food located steps from the Ibis hotel where I was staying. The Mussels were some of the best and the lamb rump was cooked to perfection. The atmosphere is very nice as it seems to be an old bank building. Prices were reasonable. It was however very noisy.”

“Recently went in for burger Wellington, my wife had the burger and said it was great, I had the pie what can say about the pie it was amazing could not have been happier with the dish”

“Had a great family event at Speight's Ale House Petone. Thank you Rory, Karen, bar staff and kitchen for making our evening run so smooth with great service and food was delicious - the Lamb Shanks were a hit! Great customer service our family felt so welcomed and special. We got to enjoy a fun evening just catching up while flow of meals, addtional requests and drinks were served in perfect timing and accommodating our kids meals was wonderful. Thanks again Justin and Speight's team for accommodating our group and organising a set menu. We had a great time, will be back again.”

“We had breakfast for four of us on Sunday morning, service was friendly and efficient. Meals were delicious and coffee was fantastic. A cool setting and displays were very funky. Will be back next time we visit Wellington.”

“I’m sorry but how have I never been here before in my 14 years living in Wellington. Such a cosy nook, blink and you’ll miss it. the last Bastian of a cheap eggs on toast in Wellington if you will. AND mayoral candidate Rob Gouldon was seated there wearing a massive ribbon like a prize- what a treat. I’ll be back a million times over”

“I was invited and signed in by a friend and was pleasantly satisfied. Food was great.”

“We stumbled upon a cool little bar slightly off Courtenay Place in Wellington and ended up having such a fun night. We were drawn in because we heard some really good filler songs playing—these were the tracks they had on between the karaoke performances. We went in around 9 o’clock when karaoke was already going, and within an hour or two the place really came to life. It was such an amazing vibe with great music, a fun crowd, and plenty of energy. Definitely a memorable night out that happened by chance and turned into something awesome.”

“We rocked up a little late but great service (with a smile) greeted us. Wonderful atmosphere and warm on this windy winters night. Bottle of Cloudy Bay sauvignon blanc topped it off.”

“This restaurant was chosen because it offers gluten-free pizza, in addition to the breathtaking view that captivates both the heart and the eyes.”

“I have had lunch here on a weekday, and dinner on a Friday night but early. Both times I enjoyed the plant-based food and the atmosphere of the place. For dinner I had the fajita tofu bowl (pictured) - I cannot rant enough about how good and perfectly cooked their tofu is. Verrae nice: crunchy crust and not soggy. Both times I enjoyed having quite a few options to choose my meal from, and how fresh the ingredients are. It’s also handy that this restaurant is right on the beach, and handy for parking and the bus stops. Staff have been very responsive and helpful both times, so 5 stars it is! Will be back to try the other menu options.”

“We come here a lot to play but my daughters birthday party was at Chipmunks Lyall Bay today. It was AMAZING! The recent upgrades have made the venue so awesome all the kids loved it. The food was great, the party house was great, but the best part was how friendly the staff were- it was so busy and they were still able to make sure we had everything we needed and more! They were so caring and made it such a special and easy day for us. Highly recommend Chipmunks Lyall Bay, thank you guys I am so grateful for help in making my girls day so special!”

“I visited this lovely little cafe on a daily basis while staying in Kelburn Castle. I welcomed warmly and have a problem with my request but unfortunately very unfortunate. He watches me treat them with others with the same cheerful patience and the clientele is varied. The food is excellent and the coffee superb. The best little coffee I've ever found.”

“We will be forever grateful to Weddings at Foxglove for our amazing wedding. Alley you’re an absolute dream to work with, you made our day so seamless and stress free. I recommend you everywhere and to everyone. Our friends and family are still talking about the food and service. There’s absolutely nothing we’d have done differently, thank you!”

“This pub is everything you could possibly want from a local spot. Great food, great prices, and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps you coming back. The staff are fantastic—friendly, attentive, and always up for a chat, which adds to the warm, relaxed vibe. Whether you're popping in for a casual drink, a meal with mates, or a weekend catch-up, this place delivers every time.”

“Floyd's Cafe is my go-to spot. The staff are super lovely, the food and coffee are delicious, and the prices are reasonable. It's got a nice, chill vibe that I love. Highly recommend checking it out—you won't be disappointed!”

“I love this place so much! It's the kind of place where you absolutely know you are always going to get great service and amazing food. We went to try the Burger Wellington offerings, and unlike most other places, it was amazing for my non vegan partner and my vegan self to feel like we were both having the same experience, as there are matching burgers. I would absolutely recommend this place for a great meal out and even more so if you have a fur baby, as they have a whole extra menu, just for them!”

“The service was friendly and attentive, and the prices were reasonable. If you're looking for a fun and memorable experience in Wellington, I highly recommend checking out this rooftop bar. Although the weather wasn’t great they had covered, heated seating areas where you can sit enjoy the view.”

“This is quality sushi. The dishes are fresh and the price reasonable. The train itself goes very quickly so you have to be a little nimble to grab your dish without making a mess. Good variety and made-to-order items available too.”

“The pizza here was delicious, highly recommend!”

“Great food! Always tasty and has a great selection of new pizzas every time we go.”

“Best pizzas ever and local in Tawa! Love their Indian style pizza. Staff friendly”

“Luv this place. The Manhattan is my Fav”

“My first of, no doubt, many meals from here. I had a Curry Chicken Don and it was just delicious. Full of flavour and good value too. There's a great range on the menu to look forward to.”

“The staff noticed I had requested my pizza without cheese from an online ordered and within I uses called to check if I was dairy free to make it in the diary free zone. I am not, I just don't like a lot of cheese. It was kind and thoughtful to call and check just in case.”

“Perfection! Incredibly fresh ingredients executed to a high standard. We had the Bruschetta, Rucola salad, meatballs, arancini, calamari, pepperoni pizza, garlic bread. Highlights: Light, high quality pizza dough Fresh, fresh ingredients, high quality pepperoni and squid Best Arancini we have had, love the little chilli kick. Highly recommended for snack or full meal. Lovely to interact with the owner, and the staff were friendly and attentive. AAA+++ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“5 star ⭐️ all around!! Service was excellent and food was delicious 10/10 recommend. Lots of parking, great value, friendly staff, and most importantly delicious food. Had takeaway too and always perfection”
