The Green Parrot Cafe

A Wellington institution. As long as you know what to expect with this place it can be enjoyable. White bread and butter is served to start, not my cup of tea but a tradition they haven’t changed. The servings are large, served with green salad and potato salad. Lamb chops, pork chops and schnitzel were ordered at our table and were all tasty.

Awesome, cosy atmosphere!! Went in on St Patrick’s day but were seated straight away. Their mains portions are huge! Too full to try their yumo desserts. Great service will definitely be back when in town!

We come here a few times a year before our functions at the Amora and it is always clean, welcoming and inviting. The staff is always friendly and accomodating. The food is great value for money, large portions, fresh and delicious! Great family dining or for functions!

Excellently prepared large meals. Steak was cooked to perfection. My wife had the pork chop which was still very juicy. Had friends in from Australia, and they raved about the food.

Service was great. Waitress were friendly and even spoke to my young kids. This place isn't fine dining, and they don't pretend to be either. It's traditional, simple meals. They pride themselves on changing little since 1946. Starters is sliced white bread and butter. On the menu they had bacon and eggs (for dinner), and milk. It ain't a cheap place to dine, but portions are massive. I'll be back one day.
