Nice little cafe / restaurant. Has a good location and really friendly staff. They do combination of German / french cuisine. Plates are a fairly good size despite the advice fr the waiter we wished we ordered less The only downside is the space. It can get bit too crowded and cozy. Prices are ok-ish for what it is
Awesome restaurant! We had a dinner there and it was lovely! Great wine selection and beautiful food. The staff was really friendly and knew the menu well.
A nice busy place in the morning. Coffee was quite good, however my mushroom toast looks really fancy but tasted abit underwhelming. The taste was just not there yet resulting in a slightly bland mushroom toast. A bit of caramelised onions would probably have fixed that with slightly more creamy gravy was almost dry with the exception of some oil. Maybe it's just a different style but I did not enjoy the taste as much as the looks.
An old favourite and have been eating here since the 1980s. The Lido is likely one of Wellington's first real 'cafes' with more than fried eggs on toast and instant coffee in the eighties. The brunches are always sorted and coffee excellent. Not sure how many owners it's gone through but I have not had a bad meal here in 23 plus years which is amazing. Today's latte and eggs Benedict is no different.
The Lido for brunch came highly recommended and while the food Avocado on toast with haloumi was OK, it was the service I enjoyed the most. Very friendly and welcoming staff who were attentive and conversational which I really appreciate.
Fantastic re-boot for a stodgy and unwelcoming “institution”. Thank God for all the light that now pours in through the café’s excellent position, and a change in vibe from hostile dive to warm and welcoming restaurant. The upgraded menu is superb, with a broad range of tastes and flavor that best encapsulate Kiwi cuisine as better than the rest of the world at their own dishes. Excellent labneh and dukkah easily beat out Middle Eastern originals, pumpkin and cashew fritters bring comfort food to the table by way of Malay flavours. The drinks list is also impressive with sugar-free fizzies, an inviting array of sakes and even Bru Kvas for the indulgent and intrepid. The beer list offers up the best craft beers from Garage Project, Tuatara, and Kereru among others and the wine list portends to the sommelier’s real love for setting the list. Made true when discussing food and drink with the friendly staff. Go here for lunch and stay on til dinner, the offerings are worth it, putting quality food down at good prices. And enjoy an Aperol spritz while you observe the new clientele, an excellent departure from the grumpy, fat people who used to complain about small portions of chips and busy staff.
I've been going to The Lido for over 20 yrs and i still love it. There's a reason it's been around for so long, which is that it does what it does very well, and is consistent. Service was good, food was prompt and my pancakes with berry coulis and mascarpone were yum-o
Really cute atmosphere and staff are lovely. Portions sizes are generous! Some vegan options and lots of gluten free options. I'll definitely be back.
Such a good breakfast spot. Great service, good atmosphere and fantastic menu. I had the vegan gluten free breakfast tacos and they were great. I am not vegan or gluten free they just looked so good on the menu. Would definitely return :
Wow! Beautiful meal here tonight. We've been coming here for years....it's got better and better. We love the Tapas menu. Its the new way of eating....abit of everything. Tonight we tried cocktails for the first time and they were perfectly made, sweet but not sickly...alcoholic but not bitter and drunken. It's dark and intimate...dark, smouldering glow. After 20 years, the Lido continues to be my favourite Wellington restaurant....actually Aotearoa and that's saying something. Come here and leave your ego and hangups at the door...it's a chill place for very chill people only...
