beach babylon

undoubtedly & consistently the worst service in wellington. the food & craft beer is great. sadly the service really lets this well positioned establishment down.

came here finally after driving past a million times!
we were greeted upon arrival and told to seat wherever we wanted. service was quick and we didn't have to wait long for food- however our drinks took some time (only one barista on but tonnes of wait staff?)
food was great, love a good brunch!

had the vegan vegan which was delicious and huge! partner had rosti with bacon and halloumi. coffee and service were amazing, we will be back.

very busy on a sunday and the staff didn't cope. the next door table seated after us had their meals, and our order hadn't been taken yet. they didn't notice that we didn't have menus. left after coffee.

solid brunch menu especially if you love rösti! they are often busy weekends but it's worth waiting for a table. the location and atmosphere is great with outdoor seating options for those few sunny days. wanna try their dessert fondue next!

a great spot for drinks in the sun - and they have pimms jugs! most of the snack foods/small plates are a little on the greasy fried side, the fondue is excellent.

a nice little spot for brunch, and as a bonus was open boxing day. they have a variety of options for roti so no need for bread or toast if you wish. the coffee was good

located on oriental parade i like the surfie beach house vibe and the matching music. the staff were friendly and relaxed and we got started with cups of good coffee. i had the breakfast burrito with chorizo extra and this dish is a delicious messy monster. black beans, avocado, scrambled eggs and spicy sausage, the burrito could probably feed two but not today. i staggered out of the cafe happy and full. recommended

velvety coffee, efficient staff, and buzzing with happy customers.
would have liked to sit outside but can't stand the second hand smoke. what a pity this toxic practice is still permitted at a prime beach front location.

went for burger wellington. they had one burger which was - no smoke without fire = a burger without taste" - quite shameful! the gentleman who took order was not that friendly. ordered two and waited for almost 15 or 20 mins. the guy told me it took time because we were the first to order for the day. when they arrived. very disappointing. basically, frozen beef patty which was heated up on a pan, lettuce, 2 slices of tomatoes and one slice of bacon with tabasco sauce. bun was plain, chips were oily and slight cold it means it was cooked earlier and wait for the frozen beef patty to be heated up. i honestly do not know why they even in the list of burger wellington. so i gave 3 out of 10 for their burger. honestly i wouldn't go back there anymore. when we left no staff paid attention to us or said bye so we said ourselves bye bye forever! the food was plain and service was so so. the the burger there and staffs service needs to improve.

i have been to this place a few times now and it is one of my go-to place for brunch. i have decided to take a friend of mine here for brunch yesterday. the staffs were very friendly and the service was really fast for a busy place.  we ordered their buttermilk pancake and free range poached eggs on five grain toast. the pancake was really nice and  beautifully made. i was a bit disappointed with the other dish which is the poached eggs on toast. the toasts were a bit burnt and hard and the poached eggs were super runny.

these guys are rip off merchants.

grossly overcharge for coffee and food is generally rubbish.

place appears dirty,certainly not clean.

a possible health hazard.

don't go/stay away>

this was a great place to eat quick and friendly service with amazing food and amazing drinks this is again a great place to eat kid friendly and great view out across wellington harbor and would definitely go again

love this place. good food. great location and excellent service. i love that pets are allowed. i go here nearly each time i visit that side of the city.

nice cafe. great food and service. reasonably priced food. i went there with a friend from usa/poland and this cafe catered to his dietary requirements.
