It took longer than I expected, but it was well worth the wait. I received the most beautifully fresh, attractive and delicious dish ever. Along with the usual melon, there was grapes, apple, kiwi, pineapple, strawberry with pomegranate seeds and passion fruit. The accompanying yoghurt had honey drizzle too. Just fabulous. On a second quick visit, I got a Garden Salad to take away - it was beautifully fresh, once again. Delicious - thank you.

Every sandwich is reasonably priced too! You can also get an assortment of pre-made items in the cooler if you're in a hurry. There are salads, a pie case with a good selection, and real Italian sodas on offer too. Customer service has vastly improved since my first visit in 2017. Nowadays, whether slow or busy, it's always a good place to grab that perfect lunchtime sandwich!

Pies were $10-12 NZD and since we were there mid-afternoon, there were only two options left. There's not much to the ambiance here since it's mainly an ordering counter for to-go, but we did find patio seating outside. Service is counter service. This was our first hand pie in NZ, and it ended up being at the bottom of my partner's "Hand Pie Rankings" for all of the ones we ate during our NZ trip. We got the creamy chicken pie and found it to be mostly gravy/filling without as much meat or substance than we'd hoped for. Can't speak to the food on the restaurant side, but the interior and decor in there is cute!

When checking out the menu I ordered the green smoothie and the French toast. When our food arrived, they actually brought out a different dish however I told them I ordered the French toast they were extremely apologetic. It seemed to be a little of language barrier with accents. The French toast was delicious- it was warm and comforting, the topping was crunchy but strawberry mousse was smooth. We went up the pay and the man apologized again and removed my Smoothie from the bill. Highly recommend! Sweet people and friendly atmosphere.

It is great for a nice dinner to sit down and enjoy a meal. We ordered quite a few appetizers and entrees to share as this was our last night here. We started with some raw oysters, smoke fish croquette ($9.50 each), focaccia bread ($9) with artichoke dip ($12), seafood chowder ($30), and the beef tartare ($28). Our favorites were probably the oysters and the focaccia bread with the spread. The oysters were fresh and we enjoyed trying them all. The focaccia bread went great with the spread as the bread was warm and the spinach dip was a nice cool dip to match. The bread was also perfect to dip in the chowder. For the entrees, we ordered a side of green beans ($14), fettuccine ($27|$37), Lumina Lamb Backstrap ($19 per 100g), and the Japanese wagyu ($85 per 100g). Our favorite out of everything was the wagyu. The lamb was delicious but it's not comparison after you have a bite of the wagyu. The Wagyu was cooked perfectly. The meat was not too thick of a piece to cut. The green beans were a great side to go along with the meal. The almonds added a nice crunch to the green beans. Overall, we enjoyed our meal very much. We felt that this restaurant was a perfect way to end our stay in Wellington!

Today, I had a fantastic smoked fish sandwich, with a fresh slaw. My wife's salad was great. And, the side salad of broccoli, almond and feta was perfectly cooked and prepared. My wife often says that the sign of a good restaurant is how well it does vegetables. These were perfect. Try the kombucha to drink. It is a delicious and fruity fermented iced tea. It is homemade here and I am told that it takes days to brew. It is wonderful. So come up the stairs and relax. It is well worth it.
