Kelburn Village Pub

We (family of four) all enjoyed our meal at the Kelburn Village Pub.
The Tapas were excellent and the venison fettucini main was very good.
We didn't stay for dessert as it was getting very busy being a rugby test night.
Sinead (hope I got the name right) was really helpful.

This pub style restaurant was a perfect escape from a rainy day. Great tunes were playing, friendly staff who accommodated all dietary needs without fuss, lovely food .

During our short stay as visitors to Wellington we made a decision on an otherwise cold and wet Sunday afternoon to make a booking through first table at the Kelburn village hotel. After a wet, chilly but picturesque trek up the hill, we arrived to a cosy environment and a warm welcome by the hotel staff. We nestled in with a pint of craft beer, and on completion were shown to our table. On viewing the menu we found the choice both varied and pleasing. We found all the dishes we ordered were cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. Our decision on the night was 10/10. A special mention to the beef fillet with truffled potato croquettes, melt in the mouth perfection.

A pleasant experience in a relaxing environment. Staff friendly and helpful. Would go back with first table.

The Steak sandwiches was simple a bread roll, with some pieces of steak and a few diced mushrooms.

But worse was to come; my daughter discovered a big bit of plastic in her pancakes. And when I reported it to the chef had to ask if she should continue eating it ('no' was the answer). And finally - some 20 min later - I had to ask when he replacement meal was going to come. 'We didnt think you wanted one' was the reply. What the hell?! In what world is it OK to leave a kid with a meal that had foreign objects in it to continue eating it.

Don't dine here. Ever.

This was a lovely venue and the food was just as lovely. Only disappointment was that there was not enough of the beef to go around those in our group who wanted to order it. As we were dining early in the evening I would have expected enough portions of selections on the menu to be available to diners.

Very cosy setting for a warm brunch. Delicious food. Chose tasty vegetarian option.

Fantastic place. Lively atmosphere, great staff who were friendly and attentive. Food was quick and great quality. Would recommend

Disappointing. We arrived 10 mins early as we had a booking and was told that they were not opened yet and to wait outside. It would've been nice to have been offered a seat to sit inside until it officially opened as it was cold outside. Most the meals were very salty. The rice risotto was luke-warm and salty. The chicken dish was lovely though. My daughter did not like the hamburger, took a couple of bites and didn't eat it. We would not dine here again as we did not feel welcomed when we arrived and the food was average.

We were at Kelburn Pub on Saturday evening and whilst the Pub was busy, with all the tables full and lots of people in the bar, we were well looked after. We started with the Garlic Bread, which was hot and had just the right amount of butter. For mains I had the fish of the day – pan fried Tarakihi served with a pea mash, potatoes and fennel. My friend had the couscous salad – which was beautifully presented. Both dishes were very good and I would definably order them again. The cheese board with a soft brie and a tasty cheddar served with walnuts, a paste and gherkins was a great way to finish the meal.

Yummy pub food. Delicious cocktail (rum, creme de cacao, spiced chat and toasted marshmallows!). Casual out of the city dining experience, good place to meet friends.

Had a great time at the Kilburn Vilage Pub. Meal and service was superb. Staff very friendly. Will definitely come back next time we in Wellington.

10/10

Food were delicious and presentation is great. Definitely we will come back and recommend this place.

Wonderful service and wonderful food.

One of the best meal experiences we've had

Very nice food, (beef fillet, pork belly and wagu beef burger all beautifully cooked, followed by the cream brulee and Raspberry truffles= delicious )
Tasty Craft beer
great friendly service, busy lively atmosphere -would go again

Great casual atmosphere, the food was good and so was the service.

Wonderful as always. Attentive staff, delicious food, quick service. One of my favourite dining spots in Wellington

I booked in using the generous First Table offer. Staff could not have been more helpful and considerate. My friends organised a birthday cake for dessert, and the Kelburn Village Pub produced the most devine Tiramasu cake. Nice friendly atmosphere, and really enjoyed the fact that it wasn't very noisy and one could easily follow the conversation. Will be back.

What a great little pub! Food was fantastic. I can safely say I had one of the best steaks I've had in Wellington. The wait staff were amazing and provided great suggestions for food allergy requirements.
Good wine selection also.
All round great atmosphere, service and food.
Will be back for sure.

Delish food, great service.

Had a great dinner with the grandchildren. Service was excellent and will definitely return

Food was excellent and our waitress just lovely.

Great food and service - an enjoyable dining experience, thank you

Since we started our first table experience (we’ve been to a few restaurants) we have been so disappointed with our food!! When we left KVP we were full from the 3 courses we ordered. The food was amazing, the service was perfect (thank you server) the atmosphere was chill. Everything about your place was on point.
We definitely will be dining with you again

Really enjoyed our experience at the pub, as Kelburn locals who are soon to move suburbs we were excited to head along before we move, and it didn’t disappoint. Really interesting dishes coupled with a lovely homely setting made for a fantastic night. Thanks heaps!

Excellent service and food

We had a really perfect evening dining here with our out of town guest. The service was friendly and professional and the food amazing! Would definitely recommend it and will be back for sure. Go for the market fish or the sirloin both of which were cooked perfectly. Do you know that momentary sadness that comes over you when you are coming to the end of a perfect dish?...we didn’t want in to end!

Had a booking for 5.30pm. Service was great, food arrived promptly. I had a steak sandwich. My husband had pork belly. We had sides of polenta chips, green beans, and edamame beans. Delicious. would go again.

Lovely meal, in a lovely pub! Definitely would consider returning.

Really nice food and great service! Would definitely go back. (Although we had to pay extra for some aoili which does annoy me a little bit)

The food was really good and so was the service! I would definitely come back

A very relaxing meal in nice surroundings with good wine and food.

Lovely place to have dinner. Great food, reasonable prices, excellent service and great selection of wine.

This pub is really buzzing on a Friday so don't expect a quiet intimate dinner. Parking can also be a little tricky so allow plenty of time to find a park. However once you are seated with a menu in hand, things get infinitely better. The truffle marscapone is to die for. I am told the chef is Italian. If true, this is reflected in the menu, with the fettucine and the mediterranean beef salad (both delizioso) and the hazelnut pannacotta (divino) as well as that marscapone on ciabatta which was, for me, the highlight of the evening. Molto bello!

Excellent service and tasty food made for a great meal out with our family of 4, including kids. Menu is limited but food was great. Happy to see a kids menu with good options.

Happy to find they have a kids menu. Excellent place to relax on a sunny day.

Lovely restful place with all the amenities. Great service and the food is very good.

Lovely food and table service

We had a great meal. Great beer selection

Amazing night. The staff were lovely and very funny. The food was incredible. Overall a great experience.

First time using First Table. Lovely meal at Kelburn Village Pub and great friendly and helpful waitress.

Exceptional service and really nice food

Very yum food!!! Good selection as well, lovely staff with good service, would definitely recommend and visit again :)

Very pleasant night. Four for three course meal and drinks.
Enjoyed the ambience and the service was great.

We were very pleasantly surprised with our visit to this venue. The food was delicious and presented well. Exceeded our expectations in every respect. Thanks for the great night. Wine selection was great too. Top marks.

Great food and service!

An enjoyable and tasty meal. Service was prompt and staff were friendly.

Lively atmosphere, great table service, food was great except for the chicken burger (tiny piece of chicken, not much else inside and way too much tomato sauce). Wished I had gone for the beef burger like the rest of my table which they loved. Calamari was also much enjoyed.
