Seashore Cabaret

One of THE best spots to eat in Wellington. Service was good, food is top tier, nice atmosphere inside was warm and welcoming. Plus the ocean views were gorgeous

One of our favourite places with family and friends. Great food and nice having the beautiful sea views while dining.

I really liked this place. The view is great and the menu looks good. The coffee has always been good. This morning I met a friend for breakfast, we got our menus, coffees came super quick. We had a bit of catching up to do so hadn't even looked at the menu when asked for our order. We asked for a bit more time. Waitress never returned. Never made eye contact. Finished coffees. Sat and looked at the staff to try and get their attention. We were basically ignored. It wasnt that busy. I wasnt going to order at the counter, and wasnt going to call out, so we paid for coffees and left. Was really looking forward to steak and eggs. Two stars is generous, based on past experiences. Hospo is all about service, a cafe can't survive in this economic climate on reputation and kiwiana kitsch.

Super cool space that you would never know existed above the storefront. We ate too quickly to take photos, but had the Thai beef salad, big breakfast, and the standard two egg plate. My son had a salted caramel milkshake that he said was wonderful. They have a full soda bar and coffee bar along with amazing pastries. It’s a little loud inside. The view is absolutely amazing even on this cloudy day. This is a fun place to eat with great food!

My first time coming in here years.nThe atmosphere was very loud however, this was due to all tables being filled.nI ordered the Bernaise Steak Sandwich x2 $26 each , kombucha $6.50 , Lemonade $5 & 2 donuts $6.50 - 7 I can’t remember.nThe steak was VERY thin, tough & dry. The steak was also grey it was giving minute steak. Salad was like those bags u get from the super market.nThe bread it was on also very thin and also NOT toasted. The value was not worth more than $15 -18. I advised a staff member nearly halfway through thinking I could handle it, as I mentioned to them I am on a time crunch I’ll just continue eating it.nIn both drinks there were specs of coffee grounds.nThe donuts were not issues and surprisingly very nice.nThe waiter gave me 2 $4.25 coffee vouchers $8.50 and didn’t seem apologetic which is okay as it’s not their fault. I was not satisfied when paying, so I asked rather than receiving coffee vouchers can I please have the drinks removed from the tab or something due to the food.nThe staff were nice and sincere!! Which made the experience better despite the food being below average.nDefinitely would not come here again which is unfortunate as I was bringing my mother out for a special breakfast. Both left disappointed and headed out to another place to eat. Total I paid $66.30.
