Reviews
"The coffee is great. The breakfast is amazing ( my favorite are the olive works and waffle of the day). However, 1 star off for the lunch menu as there is not much options, mostly salad dish and a bit overprice. Service is ok. Might have to wait for 15-20 mins for a table especially late morning on the weekend."
"An absolute must visit for anyone who’s in the Capital! Great atmosphere with lovely staff and they even have a garden courtyard (basically unheard of in town!). Really like the eclectic, vintage. I had the most perfect poached eggs on a thick piece of buttery sourdough and fresh avocado. Coffee is also fantastic, and they even offer coconut milk. 10/10"
"We had a fantastic breakfast in the stunnng courtyard. Couldn’t fault the food, the scotch eggs and salad were fantastic. Great service and good coffee. Best Bloody Mary I’ve tasted too. We’ll definitely come back when next in Wellington."
"Pumpkin & tofu gnocchi was incredible! Unfortunately chicken thigh disappointing - slaw was soggy in dressing and chicken was over fried. We asked for some hot water to drink and we were pleasantly surprised when they also gave us some thick juicy slices of lemon (for free) to go with it. On a cold Wellington day the covered outdoor area didn’t feel as cosy/enjoyable as the tables inside. Service very attentive & friendly. Rated four stars as gnocchi was a five, but chicken was only a three."
