Reviews of Classics Museum
J. S.
Classic cars and memorabilia of years past remind us where we came from. What grandad might have driven or even dad. If not... it doesn't matter. It's a must visit.
M. T.
A very interesting museum to visit, so much to see. Those old classics are fantastic. Will go to visit again. A small sample of the range of cars, bikes,etc
K. J. v. R.
So cool, a very nice collection of old vehicles, bikes and memorabilia. And a nice themed diner.
S. K.
I was very surprised to find out there was a classics museum near Auckland! This was so worth the money. Recommend to everyone, whether you like cars or not!
R.
Beautiful place, you can spend an hour looking at these amazing cars. We went an hour before it was closing so we only had an hour but I think you could stay longer. There's a nice just before you enter inside the Cafe. The cars are beautiful. Staff was really friendly and awesome and you could get a student discount as well. Lovely place if you love cars ❤
D. D.
Loved this place and huge credit to the curators well presented with classic automobiles and memorabilia from early to mid century and a very cute 50's themed diner.
A. C.
This is a must for any one to visit at least once a year, why? Because if you go back again you will see what you missed the first time around. This is a fabulous museum for anyone interested in cars, machinery Oil company's and more. I just dream of owning some of the items here. The chance is there as they have a swap meet every year and that's a beauty also
J. E. R.
Awesome cars bikes and etcetera 👏💪😎
S. C.
Fab range of cars in pristine condition. Was a car for everyone to want on their bucket list! Really enjoyed waddling around after eating burger, shake & fries next door!
T.
Fantastic collection of old cars and automobile memorabilia.
Absolutely worth a visit, and easy day trip from Auckland, or stay overnight on the grounds if you have a camper.
Cafe there to make life easy.
Highly recommended if you are into old cars and history.
H. P.
Awesome personal collection of vintage cars maintained to a very high standard. Not too much written information and not too crowded/crammed with too much stuff. Can get round in 90 mins or less depending in how interested you are at looking at all the cars. Even had blankets to borrow if you get a bit cold! Other collectors items too e.g petrol signs and car badges. Cool diner attached to the museum also which is 50s themed.
C.
Well worth a visit if you're in the area! Second time I've been and found plenty of new and Interesting things!
A. M.
Amazing collection of vintage cars. I must say I was taken back in time ( too bad you and just climb in one of these beauties and drive away).
Everything is themed and wrll arranged for you to have a pleasant time.
I recommend taking a drink after the visit at the retro cafe just for a comfortable booth and good tunes.
K. F.
Lovely for a family outing. The staff were very friendly, patient and accommodating. We sat outside with our dog and they brought her a bowl of water which is so appreciated. The food was great, especially the milkshakes, jackfruit burger and fries. Would definitely go again!
S. F.
Wonderful. We'll worth going thru. Thank you
F. A.
A very beautiful museum with a very nice extensive car collection. Very enthusiastic owner. Bring your Dutch guilders and quarters for the pinball-machine. Hours of fun of car history and technique.
D. C.
Brilliant display and variety of vehicles.
A lot of interesting motoring memorabilia. I and my 5yo grandson throughly enjoyed the experience.
k. k.
Back to the past enjoyed every moment i spent here and didnt miss to take some snaps check it up
L. J.
Loved the place.... Great display of cars and related materials
l. e.
Visit was outstanding. Was invited out back to where they do the restoration and met with the owner. Looking forward to revisiting to see the outcome of the projects they have almost finished.
A. P.
It added an extra excitement to the visit. I am not much into cars but it still bring that oomph! Out of me...😊
T. P.
Swap meet in Hamilton Sunday 22nd first time in the last two years its been on good turn out bloody awesome
S. B.
We loved this site. It was so intimate and incredible being around such a stunning collection. There was so much old school memorabilia as well as cars, toys and a hand full of bikes. There is also a diner there that looked really snazzy :)
E. K.
Amazing museum with whole lot of ancient classic cars and bikes. You r definitely gonna enjoy your visit even if you don't know anything about automobiles
K. R.
Absolutely amazing staff, had my daughters 1st birthday here, would 100% have other events here, dinner food is amazing
H. I.
Great collection of cars, good American style food Hamburgers, Fries, Hotdogs drinks and other selections... nice atmosphere friendly staff
C. C.
Absolutely wonderful. I popped in to ask for directions and despite not knowing where I was talking about the lovely lady on till took time to search it and locate it for me. I went back afterwards for lunch and was overjoyed to realise they don't just know what FODMAP dietary needs are they also had food I could eat. Was very impressed
H. R.
Best car museum I have ever seen.So clean & well presented. A credit to the owner who shares his passion for all to see. Had a lovely chat with the owners Father in law who was very informative & friendly. So clad I didn't wait in the Diner as first planned when my husband & son went in. Enjoyed every minute
J. C. C. R.
This museum it's such an amazing place. The cars, motorcycles stickers and all the history is completely breathtaking and unforgettable. Totally recommend.
L. S.
This is a 'must see' attraction! And give yourself plenty of time because there is an amazing amount of items to see. Brilliantly presented with amazing attention to detail. And the diner was top class as well. Super friendly staff. Deserves six stars.
K. T.
Amazing place, well set out and immaculate cars, every 5 min it was" wow i had one of those"
f.
Love the set up,old rock stars are always a hit with me
S. P.
Lovely collection of old cars next to a beautiful diner that takes you back in time. Well worth the visit.
S. M.
Great day trip from Auckland to Hamilton. Allow an hour inside the Museum. Great variety of cars and automotive memorabilia. Very reasonably priced entry. The cafe/restaurant was excellent. Clean, tidy and the staff were very friendly. Food and drinks arrived quickly and when we first arrived it was busy; so the service was outstanding. The all day breakfast's we ordered were perfect as was the coffee. The only negative for me was it was quite in the Museum (a bit of the Rock n Roll music from the cafe would for me have been welcome) , for some that may be a plus.
w.
Absolutely wonderful place to visit I will be going back again and again
M. K.
Great collection of old rare cars, very educational. Steep price, $20 for an adult!!
P. B.
Great place. Been wanting to come here for a while. At last I made it.
W. S.
So much to see. Wonderful cars & memorabilia. Amazing place.
R.
Well worth the visit. Cafe is awesome with fantastic food, Well done.
R. R.
1st time going there and loved it, my son into enjoyed going and seeing the old cars, model cars and just all the stuff there.
W. S.
Loved this museum not normally one for a motor museum but loved it
S.
Fantastic. Beautiful collection of cars. Well kept too.
A. T.
Fantastic on site 50's style retro-diner with fabulous food and excellent friendly staff. Museum is very interesting but a bit small. Had a great time nevertheless.
M. G.
Awesome spot. Really liked the petroleum displays, some of the best I have seen! Definitely worth a visit.
M.
Really worth a visit. Good family event
I. M.
Good themed dining. Great atmosphere. Then a trip down memory lane looking at items from yesteryear. Unfortunately, showing my age I remembered using or seeing too many of the items on show. Give it a go you will be pleasantly surprised.
R. N.
The museum its self is small but very concentrated. Lots to look at but doesn't take very long to get around. This is not a problem in most cases exept there is a large price which I personally belive is not worth entry ($20) entry in most cases for 30 - 45 minuets of time spent there. Not particularly worth it. The diner joined to the museum is equally overpriced, I was sorely disappointed with the $7 milkshake being the same quality as a $2.50 one you can get at most dairys. The food was average but desently expensive for what it was. I would of enjoyed my time here much more if the cost was far lower and equal to what you would expected.
n. v.
Very nice place, highly recommended if you're into classic cars
R. K.
I had the great pleasure to visit this wonderful Classic Museum car display, on Wednesday 21 July 2021 with a group of 60's plus. The number of cars on display in such excellent condition is amazing. Some cars I had never ever seen before, as well as many from my younger days, which brought back many memories. I can certainly recommend this Museum to everyone.
S. B. W.
Very interesting collection of cars. Well worth the visit. Lovely 60s style dinner Caffè as well.
R. J.
Incredible collection of beautifully restored vintage cars and automobile paraphernalia. Filled with nostalgia. Definitely worth having a look.
V. H.
If you enjoy seeing classic cars and related items this place is amazing with some really interesting vehicles including quirky stuff like Isetta, Messerschmitt, NSU Rotary and Goggomobile. Also old Cords and Packard's as well as some more familiar American and European makes. Most in pristine condition. Amazing collection of bonnet ornaments, oil pumps and cans and signage. Some real memories from the past when car's had soul. Retro Diner at entrance is like something out of Grease or Happy Days!
A. B.
OMG what an awesome place to check out some really cool car collections & memorabilia
L. S.
Wonderful place, i wonder why we dont have it in guidebook. we stayed also for milkshake - no WiFi for customers :(
L.
Wow it's a must to see,& stay for coffee or tea,gr8 scones & 🍰.👍
p. n.
It's a cool place even for someone who's not an automotive enthusiast like me
A. M.
Dazzling display of classic cars, motorbikes, scooters, bicycles, pedal cars and car related stuff. The old ornate petrol pumps are a highlight. $$ admission fee but under 5s are free so all up not too spendy if you're trying to entertain little ones on a rainy day.
The adjoining café is a definite asset for parents - my kids played independently for ages in their large fenced play area, and the food is tasty. Bathrooms are nice, including a good change table. We came and went from the museum to the cafe three times for food and bathroom breaks and nobody minded.
What would make it 5 stars? If they made the museum a little more engaging for children, or lowered the admission fee.
g.
Went when it was very busy in the food area,long wait to get into the museum it self
P. P.
The Cafe is awesome and fantastic value and brilliant food. Great displays of the cars. Well worth a visit. Entry to the cars is a little bit pricey, but I don't regret spending it.
M. C.
An amazing collection of well kept European cars. This is a def must see when in Hamilton!
V. E.
Great place to visit. Good food. Loved the old cars
H.
Good vibes and decor, food on the other hand is mediocre in my opinion.
A.
Always enjoy coming here. But shame there's no toy cars for sale anymore
C.
Let down badly by lunch. Service worst ever experienced
M. S.
Beautiful collection of old cars and memorabilia, well worth a visit if you are a car fan!
C.
Didn't see museum, restaurant was ok but wouldn't go back.
T.
Lovely food. Will be back. 👍👍
A. A.
Having been born in the 40s it was such a thrill to see some of these cars again, especially the American classics which have been beautifully restored and displayed. This is a great place to visit and take tourists. The cafe food is very good too. Unfortunately a member of staff at the counter was not courteous to anyone, otherwise it would have been a five star experience.
D. P.
This is an amazing place to visit for anyone who has a passion for cars and auto memorabilia. What a fantastic collection. I spent an hour and a half in here and still skimmed through it enough to have to come back for more. Its lucky there was a cafe next door so the wife could get something to eat and drink while I was still in the Museum. I'd recommend visiting this place and will be back sometime.
K.
Great to see collections like this. A good variety of exhibits. Well maintained cars. Lovely diner was a welcome start.
K. F. (.
Absolutely fantastic! Good food, good service and great ambience. The car museum has so much more than just cars and my daughter & I had a blast. Being from the United States, finding a retro theme restaurant... was a lot of fun. My daughter is very retro minded and just got married last year at a drive in theater (1st person to ever do that in the United States). This was a special find for us.
C.
Always enjoy coffee meal tbere.
J. C.
Enjoyed the cafe in the foyer and the museum - groovy place to visit!
R. A.
Alot of history here, will bring you back to the classic old days!
S. W.
Well worth the visit!!! Great for all ages..... Got the bling that young people love and the good quality memorabilia for older folk. Luv the mesdaschmit!! How on earth did Ed China and co hort fit in that!
The diner is devine!!! Got muscles in the shell in the seafood basket..... Elvis looks stunning in the corner, as dies tge cke girl by the dukebox!!! 👍👏
R.
Unqiue experience.
Not too much too say but amazing throw into the past.
Highly recommended.
K.
Been to classics a few times ! Such a cool concept and idea. Love seeing all the old cars! Amazing how things have changed. Will be back!
P. D.
Museum is great. Well worth it and plenty to look at in there. Unfortunately Elvis had left the building in the diner side of things. Poached eggs were sort of not poached but hard boiled. Though it was maybe only just mine but had a look at two other guests that had the same hard boiled poached eggs left on the side of the plate. We found a fly in my daughter's meal and we were offered a replacement but declined. Full refund was given for that meal which was good.
E.
A great spot to visit with kid!
G. N.
Very good and friendly staff. Had a lovely lunch with great friends from Auckland. Owing to the weather we are going to stay an extra day.
j. D.
Car museum was awesome 5/5stars
Cafe had an awesome vibe and style 5/5stars
Drinks 5/5stars
Food sorry guys but it’s a 1/5stars for us, we didn’t feel so well after eating. “Couldn’t cut into the bread, mushrooms smelled off, eggs were well over cooked for eggs benedict“.
D.
Was so great to see so much of my childhood in one place
J.
Amazing place got lost for hours
k. g.
Lots of shiny motor memorabilia. Be sure to check the old garage workshop. Also a large range of oil containers through the decades, some over 100 years old. Much more to see. You may even see a type of car you've driven.
M. B.
Me and my Gf stopped in on the way to Wellington. We mainly came to look at the cars, but also stopped at the Dinner for breakfast.
The place is amazing. So many beautiful cars and so many collector items. We spent at least a couple an hour walking around the different exhibits and cars, which wasn't really enough time to appreciate it all.
M. H.
Very interesting collection of old cars and related items.
J.
Awesome little spot to stop, have a look around and grab a treat. Really liked the diversity of the collection and classics. Doesn't take long to see and is organized nicely.
R.
A wonderful experience. Those cars are well kept and its wonderful to share the history with people. the restaurant is wonderful. A trip well worth it
B. B.
First time ive been, brings back memories of the way things were. They have items which we used on our service station garage, so lovely to see the model of my first car I brought, a Morris low light 😃
J.
Really fun trip out with the family. It was really cool to get that tangible insight into what life was like during the 20th century.
T. T.
If you have the love for motor enthusiasts, it's a must see. Right now Hamilton motorcycle club is celebrating its 100 year birthday, so to speak.
Fun fact.. Donald Bruce mclaren who happens to be the uncle to the late Bruce McLaren and won the Tauwhare hill Climb in 1939
T. K. J.
Absolutely loved the damn collection. Beautifully kept vehicles and parts in an absolutely stunning condition. We accidentally got in through the wrong entrance when they were moving cars and saw the whole place..then we realised the entrance was through the cafe..we nevertheless went and told we wanted to pay and leave. They rewarded us with a fifty percent discount for our honesty...did anyone say honesty was not always good..
A. R. K. D.
Even if you're not into cars I reckon you will get a kick out of this place. Very retro, like a time machine. We had the entire place to ourselves. The kid loved it. Didnt eat but coffee was not bad. Customer service was a tad meh. Overall 4 star for the experience.
P.
I visited the Bel Air conference room at the Classics Museum, it's a spacious meeting room with good audio and visual equipment suitable for video conferencing. Recommended.
C. O.
Really enjoyed this place, beautiful vehicles, hood ornaments and badges, oil cans and bottles, fuel bowsers etc. Well laid out and lots to keep you interested. Could be a bit more labelling and information on the badges and hood ornaments (not everyone is going to recognise them all!) and some of the non-car related memorabilia but that would be the only real complaint from me. Great place to spend a couple of hours on a wet Saturday afternoon!
C. J. H.
Beautifully restored and well kept vehicles among other historic relics. Definitely worth a look, there is sure to be something that will wow everyone old and young including the misso.
J. T.
Great museum with a lot of history. The only thing it was missing was more place cards about the history on some of the items. They were great to look at but would like to know more about these things to really appreciate it even more. Each car had it's own place card which was nice to see and read about the car.
S.
Go there it's amazing
A. N.
This museum is more than just a car museum. It contains a significant collection of all kinds of motoring related memorabilia as well as the usual car parts and various vehicles. The collection really is impressive with it filling the large warehouse and the mezzanine floor above. One my visit we made it extra fun by dressing up in 1950's era clothing and enjoyed the diner food available at the attached cafe after had spent a couple of hours wandering around.
G. E.
Had a really fun time here. The attached diner is infinitely better than a Macca's if you need a pitstop and the museum itself is super interesting. The cars are nearly all restored to "concourse" standard and are all owned by one guy. Lucky man.
R. W.
An amazing collection bought back memories of my early days in automotive industry. Must see for all people with time to stay overnight with rv's. Will return.
D. U.
Enjoyed a cuppa here. Haven't been for a very long time. Nice change. Good coffee
K. C.
Great selection of cars, good coffee and food. But $20 per person for entry to the Museum is VERY expensive, you would probably get more visitors to the museum if the price was more reasonable. Loved the retro American diner theme.
J. D.
was not sure at first , we took two of our grandkids, aged 8 and 10 .boy and a Girl. Had such a cool time. Unbelievable amount of things. A must to go.
C. D.
Good display of older vehicles including American and English classics. Large amount of old signage and oil company pricy tins and petrol pumps. Probably the most organised collection around.
Small amount of motorcycles and limited production small vehicles.
Cafe is large and good is fine.
D. G.
Good music. Good coffee. I've only tried a couple of squares with coffee and have been happy with the quality. I like that the jukebox is going with old hits, not too distracting but got us toe-tapping at times.
J.
Awesome museum with diner attached.
V.
I really enjoyed wandering around - looking at these Amazing cars - not so interested in the car/engine parts - it was nice to read the informatio too
L. W.
Great little museum & fantastic food
J. R.
We could stay here for days and still find more treasures.
O. S.
Best collection of American and British classics.
G. O.
Visited on the last days of Hamilton Motor Cycle Club's Centennial celebration 2021. I could have stayed for hours. Will certainly return!
r.
Great motorhome stop over 15.00 per night . Awesome very large saussage rolls came with salad 7.50
P. G.
The diner for breakfast was a great start to the museum. The museum was incredible, so much to look at and the cars were smick. Not expensive to go in either and no time restraints- The special display of around 50 bikes are a collection from members of the Hamilton Motorcycle Club and the Waikato Classic Motorcycle Clubs.
r. t.
Fantastic place for vintage car lovers. Interesting to see some items of the past displayed... such as Telephones, Radios, Cameras, Picnic sets etc..
A. C.
Easy to find. Flat ground to park. Have diner open early for breakfasts. Near the Highway...bit noisy. First time we had been there to stay
W.
Awesome display of old cars and memorabilia
Y. G.
Nice diner. Amazing play area for toddlers. Good collection of classic cars in the museum. Recommended.
S. B.
Good size museum with interesting collection of cars and memorabilia. We'll worth a visit.
J.
Such an awesome experience!
s.
Some cars brought back memories. Good collection and not just the cars petrol signs etc. We enjoyed our time 😀
T. C.
Awesome collection of all things classic! Not just cars, I am kind of obsessed with Fallout and the 40s - 50s so was right up my alley! The only thing the museum was missing was music 🙂 Definitely will return in the future!
J.
Just epic....
Beautiful meals... Excellent value .. excellent customer service..
A must do in Hamilton..
D.
A lovely place to visit and look through. Had been to the cafe before but first time to the museum and glad we went, kids enjoyed it too.
B.
Awesome museum, cool place to visit, dinner lovely and clean, food really good, great prices. Well worth the trip.
K. D.
A place all should go visit, great food and just cool eye material
S.
I can not rave about this place enough!!! It is a must see!!
Well set out and by far the best collection of automotive memorabilia and cars I've seen.
C. B.
Good display of car, a few special cars. Memorabilia is anazing. $25.00 is a little much. Half price on the monthly swap meet. Probably time Classics need to think about an extension.
P. B.
Its free parking but no toilets
Nice cafe free WiFi new building being put up at rear but does not disrupt. Campers
Campers must be self contained.
Take all rubbish away when you .leave
U.
Been here a few times. A must see in Hamilton especially if you like cars. Great collection of not just classic cars but also other very interesting items like classic gas pumps and hood ornaments
V. A. M.
Awesome little spot, and beautiful vintage cars and bikes, and the food was delicious
r.
There is a good selection of top class classic cars. Any car fiend will be impressed at the variety and quality, $20 entrance fee. Plus there's a good Cafe at the entrance.
A.
An awesome small car museum.

Stayed over night and visited the museum in the morning. The collection of cars, motorbikes, the fuel pumps and stories are amazing. Well worth it but only issue was not enough time to view all.
T.
Awesome place to eat and look around the museum I 100% recommend
N.
First Sunday of the month 8 - 10am with lots of classic cars, car boot sale, museum and great coffee and a feed. What could be better.
l.
Lots of old cars to check out, some history of vehicles good for families and anyone into cars. Has an old fashioned look diner too

Absolutely jam packed with cars, car parts and memorabilia. An amazing place to have a look and see the ideas of the time. Will be coming back to check out the things we missed on the first round
E.
All good

Looks to have great food we were just passing through on a motorcycle ride so kept going but must come back. Had many choices for gluten free.

Set behind a 1950s style diner, this hidden gem is worth a visit. The cars are amazing!! Go, you won't be disappointed.

Absolutely worth visiting. Loved it and the diner
Y.
Very nostalgic and a requirement for anyone that loves old cars. Make sure to take your girlfriend on a date and have a meal at the café. Hats off to the people who put this together.
J.
Absolutely fabulous! Must see and a great tribute to Tom Andrews enthusiasm and love of classic cars and motoring history.
1.
Amazing for the classic cars enthusiasts!
it brought me to a different era
yet they might consider re-pricing the entrance fees, it is a bit too much
Y.
I love it here because we can stay for free in our motorhome. Also the diner is great. Nice food and friendly staff!
R. H.
Stopped to stay the night in Caravan as they allow NZMCA members to park there. Had lunch in cafe, enjoyed the 50's atmosphere.

A must go place if you in Hamilton City limits whether you are fan of cars or not. Anyone visits here will not regret their visit for sure! This place has a huge collection of vintage cars and items as their exhibits.
K.
Great outing! Good varied collections beautifully displayed and the cute diner serves honest food with good value for money!
K.
We had no idea this place even existed until browsing the information in our hotel room. After spending a few hours wandering around the museum, taking lots of photographs, and dreaming about taking one or two cars home.
M.
If you love old cars and collectibles, you might need to look at the museum.
S. S.
