Always enjoy the coffee. Was disappointed with the Fish and Chips. Batter was soft, with no hint of crispness. Appeared like Fozen Fish in batter heated up in Microwave oven.Plate filled up with Salad Leaves and Lettuce. Chips all hidden underneath. Trying to eat salad had it falling off the plate on to a table not particularly clean. Previous customer dishes, 3 cups, teapot and plate with half finished Lemon meringue pie not cleared until coffee arrived. Just one of those days. Normally excellent at previous visits.

Ordered eggs bene - lots of spinach but not much salmon despite the extra charge for that. Good coffee!

Our favorite cinema in Wellington. We always choose to have a longer drive to this cinema. Meals and beverages are amazing as well.

Food order took a really long time. The upstairs theater had a water leak in the ceiling that was dripping into the middle seats. People had to move, and employees where coming in and out during the movie to clean up water and put in buckets which still had a drip sound. Super distracting and no offer of a refund. If the food order were faster (just warming up two sandwiches) and the theater wasn't leaking water with lots of disruption then it could be a good theater. The sofa seating is comfy.

The side of chips were hand made and cooked to perfection. The pumpkin ravioli sauce was ruined with lard fat being in the sage butter. Technical error here and needs to be addressed. Lamb pasta tender but a little too much pepper for my taste. This may have mellowed if the meat sauce had been cooked for longer. Menu has potential but technically let down at the last minute. I would recommend this place. The pizza’s looked great. Value for money. We will visit again and maybe can lift this rating. A little disorganised at the front counter.

I love this place. The food & snacks are so reasonably priced for a theater and it’s a really fun atmosphere to get dinner & see a movie. The food is really good (though I’d love to see more vegan options) and the popcorn/drink combo is reasonable (plus the popcorn comes in a cute little box & the soda comes in a glass!). Tuesday night movies for 10 is such a good deal. And the people who work here are really friendly. Definitely recommend for a night out.

Great spot if you are used to the cinemas closer to central Wellington, easy to get to on public transport and nice comfortable seating in the theatre. Would recommend!

Good cafe with a short but interesting menu, excellent coffee, and fluffies or ice cream for the kids. Our two year old grandson loves it
