Reviews of Queen of Jackson
I can only comment on the drinks. We go here for date nights and always enjoy it. The wine list is a good variety, love the extensive list of cocktails. Even has mocktail options. Our friendly bartender also made the best cocktail for me by swapping out some ingredients on our request. Was amazing!
Had a lovely dinner at Queen of Jackson. It’s very much a sharing plates kind of place. Plates are reasonably priced with a wide variety of options ranging from Asian to South American cuisine. They also cater for a variety of dietary requirements. The food was excellent and we received regular and friendly service. They had a decent tap menu for beers and a great range of cocktails. If you are looking for a great place to meet up with friends for a drink and a meal, you’ll definitely love Queen of Jackson. I know I’ll be back!
Great place with a great atmosphere and an awesome selection of cocktails. The staff are friendly and happy to make your preferred cocktails too (if those on the menu aren't what you're after).
Good vibes, good Kumara wedges! Good cider. Wish they still had Somersby though 😅
Really enjoyed our food. The sauces were flavorful. The batter on our chicken and calamari were light, and they were nice and crispy. The restaurant and toilets were clean.
What an absolutely fantastic place, great vibes and ambience on arrival.
Crafty and unique decor, friendly, inviting staff.
Delicious food that's to die for and vast drink selection. Definitely recommend and will be coming back. It put the cherry on my Cone =)
Great food and service, it all came out really fast
What a surprise! A smart, delicious and tasty tapas menu. Enough craft beers to satisfy the most thirsty beer connoisseur and a hip, urban vibe. Be sure to book a table
Lovely staff and great Rosebud mocktails but kind of disappointing food
Nice selection on menu & no delays waiting for food. Friendly staff.
Lovely evening with great friends. Sort of dark cozy environment. Staff were a lil lost missed orders and a couple meals on the menus were unavailable which upset 1 of my friends overall was a decent restaurant and I would go back.
A Petone regular & favourite, with plenty of tap beers changing by the week and a sweet tapas menu that also changes regularly depending on availability. Head upstairs and check out the rooftop bar in particular!
Great food & drinks.
I ordered the pork belly, churros and a house made mocktail (Elderflower fizz). All were delicious and the perfect size portions.
Service was attentive & friendly.
Would come again :)
This place is awesome! The food is delicious, their dinner banquet is such great value and oh so yummy! Great range of drinks and cocktails and all the staff are super friendly and attentive. Shout out to newbie Blake who did a fab job! We will definitely be returning.
We sat in the rooftop area and the service was fantastic. The meal was excellent and just seemed to keep coming with no gaps. The staff had no problems catering for one of our party of 14 who had special requirements. The only issue I had was it was very noisy and late in the evening when it rained the rain was coming in the patio blind. Well done to all.
Went here for birthday drinks. Lovely lovely staff, especially the woman manning the rooftop bar. (Sorry I didn't catch her name but whoever it was working Saturday 15th/09, you rock!) The cocktails menu is amazing. Honestly, I didn't have one bad drink (and I drank quite a few believe me).
Used to be one of my favourite places but the food has gone downhill since the change of ownership. Changed the thrice cooked chips despite the other staff advising against it. Portion sizes seem to have gotten smaller. Pulled pork tacos are still very good and would recommend those but since going and being disappointed with the changes I have not been back to see if it has improved. Will have to try it again.
Delicious, beautifully presented food. Great service.
thoroughly enjoyed my experience. the seating was very comfortable and food was delicious, especially the dessert - for $50 you can get two mains and two desserts, which is amazing value for the quality of food produced. staff were wonderful and efficient, but seemed slightly tense. additionally the ambience was amazing and there were a wide range of drinks whether you're looking for alcoholic and non alcoholic.
This place is perfect, great for a fun, low key atmosphere, tasty food and great place for catching up with friends. The staff were friendly and efficient and an awesome selection of wines and beers. Particularly wanted to mention they sometimes do a "karma keg" where local brewery Baylands put on a keg and instead of a set price you pay a donation, as much or as little as you like, all money raised going to that days charity, I just think this is a great idea and worth celebrating, drink beer and raise money, well done!
Nice quiet place for a drink and good range of different boutique beers ect. 3 levels available to sit down and drink so plenty of room.
The Queen is just a good place. 1) craft beers on tap, a great range that you can pop in a growler to take home 2) a great place for kids without being a kids place. A afternoon beer with the kids and everyone is happy and welcome. 3) great nibbles and bar food 4) 3 floors with a roof top - heaps of space to find the right spot for you and 5) staff are great. Friendly, attentive and accommodating people. Good times.
I can only comment on the sinks and not the food. The selection of beers are great and change fairly regularly, also a good selection of ciders on tap. Also a great variety of seating areas whether looking for a quiet drink or a bit more lively on the ground floor or top floor.
Vegan gnocchi was really good!! Nice and filling as well. Cool restaurant with a great atmosphere. Friendly staff too.
I don't take photos of my food. I find it weird.
Anyhow. The food was fantastic. The gluten free options especially impressive.
Thank you.
Really disappointed. Back in Welly for a visit thought it would be a great place for a celebratory cocktail with friends. But in the last couple of years Queen has become run-down.All the banquet cushioning is torn and the tables chipped. The staff were still friendly and the food is great, but the cocktails were overly sweet ... only vaguely resembling the real thing. Sorry Queen, but you used to be all class. You are letting yourself down.
Great food. It describes it as small plates but the servings are very generous. We got the $35 banquet. Each serving had 5 pieces (which prevented squabbles!) The marinated sweet corn was a standout but it was all very good. Friendly and efficient service.
Excellent food and superb choice of beers
Amazing food and cocktails. Gorgeous, friendly staff. You gotta try the Ginger Kiss!
Just visited again a year later. All still true! Thanks so much for being so kind and accommodating. Ginger kiss cocktail still rocked my socks off... And don't get me started on that fried halloumi... 🤤🤤🤤
Great location, friendly service, good food although pricy for what it is and the style of pub. Outdoor roof bar is great. Downstairs is quite dark but the booths set up is great for a small groups it provides separation between tables and is ideal for the shared small plates style. Good selection of craft beer and good wine choices.
Best pub in petone. Awesome variable beer selection. Tapas style food is quite expensive for the portion size, but it's very good. Also they're always odd numbers.. like five dumplings, or five tacos... The pulled pork tacos are amazing. Wedges a good cheap snack option though. Service is usually excellent and friendly too.
Such a great spot. Awesome ambience, fantastic staff, and a great place to eat.
Average service, no attention to drinks. Nothing suitable for younger children to eat other than their fries. Unwilling to remove items from their burger Wellington entry (cheese for someone intolerant). Mocktail was a good flavor but tiny volume for price. Beer menu looked intriguing but I wouldn't go back.
Nice and lively place. Rooftop is good. But should have made it like open lounge.
Not bad range of beers. Nice porters and stouts. But staff said sit anywhere but all the tables were reserved, so the only place to sit was in front of the bar. Food was ok bar snacks (small tapas) but expensive. Service was reasonably good otherwise.
The menu looks like standard pub food. It's definitely a level above. Excellent.
It's not often you can order 10 different dishes and call them all amazing! Kudos to the chef and team at Queen. Very fast service with dishes and friendly wait staff. Great place full of life.
Great independent beers but in $10-$12 range, so town prices. Tasty tapas. Garden bar is lovely in the sun, but don't take your kids up there you will be asked to take them downstairs :/
Five stars. I don't do this very often. The Queen isn't just another pub on Petone's Jackson Street. Yes, it sells beers, wines and spirits. And good ones at that. But the killer app here is the food. Tasting plates. Exquisitely melded, beautifully presented and beyond delicious. Good value too. Front-of-house service is also friendly, helpful and well informed. The Queen of Jackson has to be one of the best places I've ever dined. Seriously.
Really enjoyed my experience here. The dumplings were delicious. I'm normally not a fan of spicy food, but these were great. Would definately recommend. Also had their burger Wellington 2017 entry "Trump Tower"
Wide selection of beers, spirits and wines. Heaps of non-alcoholic options for the drivers and friendly staff. Pretty choice setting in the heart of Petone.
Usually at least 5 good craft beers pouring on tap. Food is anyways tasty and more creative than your standard brew pub food. Great atmosphere, different choices depending on your mood, cosy downstairs, quiet mezzanine floor, or covered roof top garden bar for some fresh air!
Funky place with a unique decor, good food (pub food with a nice Asian twist) and good enough service. Tables were a bit too sticky for my taste so I'm hoping they will do better there.
Rating for drinking only as didn't eat. Nice selection of beers on tap and cocktail. Cool building on three levels with two plus bars. Good atmosphere, nice and warm on a cold night.
One of the best spots to eat in Wellington! Menu changes regularly and the food is always delicious! Can never go past the $45 set menu, huge variety of food for a really reasonable price.
Very good shared plates menu...food was very good. Great designer/arty atmosphere...and really very good service from attentive helpful friendly wait staff. We loved this place....not the top bar which wad cold and noisy. Go one down to 2nd level where we ate...much warmer.
Food was nice beers are good too but food is a little over priced for portion size
Very nice Tapa style sharing plates. Had the Angus Dumplings, Duck Liver mousse, Karaage Chicken, Pear Salad, all very yum! For beer lovers, there are a number of craft beers to choose from. The waitress was very nice and friendly too.
Food is flavoursome, simple, delicious. Nice selection of beers, although they pad it out with founders and boundary road. Best foody pubby thing in petone, hands down and a higher standard than most of welly central.
Awesome food! Really enjoyed our visit.. thank you!
Very impressed with the service, quality and price on their delicious food , range of beverages and catering so easily for the 3 of us allergic to dairy today. The roof top bar was a fab spot for kids to play. We will be back
First visit here. Food was a really pleasant surprise - great flavours and a wide range of options. Nice range of craft beers, a very minor niggle might be if they had a more traditional option, like a Tuatara Pilsner or even a Tui/Speights/whatever. Staff were awesome too. This place definitely deserves people to visit it and spend some time. Will be back again.
Food was fantastic and good selection of beers on tap. Group of 11, we all had the $35 Banquet, and went home satisfied. Will definitely go back.
Have had previous great cocktails from here. However, with the recent change in ownership, it would be hard pressed to call this a cocktail bar now.
Very cozy and comfortable place to chill and relax after a long busy day... Staff were alright.
Great spot, maybe the best in Petone. Awesome selection of cocktails, only criticism is they won't make anything not on their list, even the basics e.g. Manhattan. Food was delicious but portions are small for the price.
Pretty impressive menu. Have tried about 7-8 dishes and was overall impressed with the quality and service. Definitely recommend one of the banquets to get a good selection of what's ono offer.
Was booked in to the top room on a hot night for a work function but cool thing is the roof top opens up to let in the cool breeze.
Food menu was good as well as the beer choices.
Fantastic vibe, and great customer service. Despite the finger food dinner dining experience, it is definitely worth it. And with a generous selection of boutique alcoholic beverages on tap, changed regularly, what more could you want.
Wow...wow...wow
Tapas plates with a difference...lovely good and ever so tasty. Something for everybody
Great range of drinks.
Pub grub but with a HUGE difference. We really date the queen.
Birthday dinner for a family member here was a very enjoyable evening out!A great selection of food and drinks!Service was awesome too!
A nice selection of beers, and some half decent food as well. Plates to share is best, and there's some nice selections to choose from which should satisfy most people. Can be pricey, if you get greedy, but nice.
This our favourite place to eat in Petone. The food is great! Tapas sized plates suitable to share between two people, reasonably priced. They do a number of craft bears on tap and have a great range of cocktails if that's your thing. The fat hand cut chips are fantastic! My wife loves the lemon pepper squid and the chicken karaage is my pick.
Just had candied brussel sprouts with bacon & parmisan and that was delish especially for someone who has terrible memories of brussel sprouts from my childhood years.
Good selection of craft beer that changes regularly, and tasty food. It can get noisy downstairs and can be hard to hear people at your own table.
Brilliant spot. Was an average evening and it was nice and toastee inside.
This place was just fantastic. We ate on the rooftop. Brilliant menu and staff. Will definitely go back next holiday
The cider range and service is amazing, the food is a bit hit and miss though. Would get the karage chicken again but not much else
Great share plates, good list of beers ciders cocktails AND mocktails. Friendly, attentive but not obtrusive service. Pork belly for the win!
Food is always great and the selection of beers is good. Lamb meatballs are delicious and the tuna too. Service seems to have deteriorated recently which is a shame.
A delightful surprise with great food, huge selection of craft beer and also wine and cocktail's. The Staff were brilliant.
Tapas style menu different and very interesting choices. Service excellent and food preparation great and prompt .
Great cocktails and excellent nibbles. It's a big open space inside so can be noisy. Top floor is great on sunny days.
A great place to meet with friends for some tapas and cocktails, mocktails, wine or beer. Also a good place to grab some food before a movie.
Lovely staff.good beer selection,food was delicious.tuna especially.I don't live nearby but would definitely recommend
Food drinks great, service could have been much better especially for the price we paid!
I have never actually rated anything on Google before... but queen of jackson is awesome... food u will love... drinks that offer plenty of variety and service better than any I've come across for a long long time ... keep up the good work!!
Great food, nice setup and atmosphere, huge things range of drinks and nice staff.
Great food, good food options, staff helpful. Note it is a bar, so noise is high: adjust your expectations.
Our favourite local for cocktails & sharing plates! Try the ginger kiss!
OMG this place has the most delicious food!
Getting through the 'local pub' feel downstairs leads to great things. Will definitely return :)
A really enjoyable meal of interesting different tastes with the tapas menu. Friendly considerate service. We'll be back.
Fantastic bottomless brunch, food and service was all amazing
Highly recommend the bao buns and pop chicken. Get in there on a Wednesday for 2 for 1 cocktails 👌🏼
Good atmosphere, greeted / welcomed when we walked in. Good clean set up interior was well designed. Went in for burger and beer as part of WOAP.
Tastiest fried haloumi cheese ever.. As it is.. Fired haloumi cheese is pretty rare on a restuarnt menu..
