Review Gales Cafe - Wellington

Wonhyuk Cho
I often visit this café and find it to be an excellent budget-friendly option, particularly for lunch. In a time when food prices are on the rise, this establishment has managed to maintain reasonable prices for both food and coffee. What sets this café apart is the personal touch. The owner often knows what I, along with many other regular patrons, will be eating or drinking, eliminating the need to order. The quality of the dishes is consistently good, and the service is prompt and courteous. This familiarity adds a warm and welcoming feel to the place, enhancing the overall dining experience. The café is providing value without compromising on taste, which is very nice. Whether you're looking for a quick bite or a relaxed meal, this café is a choice that won't disappoint. Highly recommended for those seeking good food at a fair price, with a personal touch that makes you feel right at home.

Great friendly service. Tables and seats to dine in and relax. Food is just OK though.

Lovely couple who owns it. Lovely homely feel and beautiful view to spare ☺️ yummy coffee and yummy meals. Great to just sit relax and look out the windows

I love Gale's! It's the best. Took this picture today of my latte and carrot cake. All of the food that I've tried has been delicious, from the pies to the sandwiches. Very reasonably priced, even compared to other bakeries nearby. The service is always 10/10, welcoming and friendly. Go visit! :)

The food range is standard fare, but very well prepared fresh and tasty sandwiches, and friendly staff. Reasonably priced for central city

My partner and I came to this place to have a nice breakfast and we had it but the best part was the kind barista lady who took our order. That made our morning. Definitely coming back when visit Wellington. Thanks!

Very friendly service. We just needed a cuppa and something to eat in a quiet cafe before catching train.

Extremely great service. Fish and Chip are fine... chips are not the best and fish is just fried fish... but local food is just what it is, right? Anyway, great staff, good service. Recommended

So lucky that this cafe is a convenient 30 second walk from law school because they make the best coffee I've ever had in Wellington 😊 the food is quick, tasty and cheap and run by the loveliest cafe owners I've ever met who know my order as soon as I walk through the front door. Definitely recommend checking this lovely little cafe out 💕

Nice wee cafe kinda in the middle of no where and everywhere at the same time. Opposite mojo and sushi / dairies between lambton quay and the train station. Nice family run business that can cater for business functions too (we have used their services for mornings tea etc in the past). Good coffee and selection of hot and cold foods. I didnt spot anything gluten free but was actually there for coffee. Good amount of seating indoors and out. Good spot.

I have eaten at Gales Cafe on many occasions. It is close to the Railway Station, Parliament and Lambton Quay. I rate it as one of the best coffee shops in town. It serves great coffee . . . has a good selection of cakes, sandwiches, pies, paninis and other tasty food . . . The service is fast and friendly and the prices represent great value for money!
