I live across the street and they are so friendly. I usually go a few times a week when I wake up to get a coffee but today I had the mushrooms on toast. One of the best things I’ve ever eaten!

I’ve visited this cafe twice now and absolutely love it! The vibe is the best part. The cafe is decorated entirely with knickknacks and thrifted pieces, and the windows let in a lot of light. The service is decent, and there are food options ranging from snacks to full meals. Most recently, my partner and I ordered flat whites, a cheese/spinach scone, and a chicken/mushroom filo. The barista offered to toast the scone and add butter, which elevated it to delicious! The filo was also insanely yummy. We spent about $24. I’d highly recommend giving Preservatorium a try!

Me and my wife often visit here almost every weekend. Great coffee, food and service! Place has a great vibe with antiques scattered throughout giving it a cool Wellington feel ☺️

Favourite place to go get a scone as I’m being sent down there everyday to pick up for me and my friend. Great food! Highly recommend :)

Eclectic atmosphere in this quiet hangout just beyond the central business district of Wellington. I ordered the eggs Benedict with ham. Very good but read the menu wrong and thought it came with hash browns. Instead the eggs are served ON hash browns instead of a crumpet or English muffin.

Friendly staff and great food in a really comfy feeling room. The cannery breakfast has to be one of the best big breakfasts in all of Aotearoa, served with great Turkish bread. Strangely no payWave or ApplePay, just old school EFTPOS inserted or swiped. And possibly cash, whatever that is.

Very lovely cafe with retro decor and a relaxing environment. Flat white is smooth and strong and the brunch offerings are delicious. Highly recommended!

Enjoyed the surrounding and style. Felt like I was at Grandparents home for breakfast 😀. Good food.

I adore this place. They have free wifi, and the ambience is lovely, which makes it a great working cafe in Wellington.
My cabinet favourite is the Steak and Mushroom pie, I reckon it's the best steak pie in Welly!
The cooked breakfasts are bloody good too. A hidden gem atop Cuba St 💛

I love the atmosphere here. The decoration is beautiful. $6 for a mocha and a warm chocolate muffin in Sat morning. Sweet!

Great food with reasonable prices.

I am a fiend for creamy mushrooms on toast and these guys served up one of the best I've had. Please never remove it from the menu. Only things that could've been better were that the food took a bit too long (20+ minutes) to come out for 2 people on a Thursday mid morning, and also the poached eggs which I added on to my dish were a little bit overcooked.
Nevertheless I will for sure be back for the mushrooms.

Great casual ambience. Plenty of seating options. Food is cafe typical and everything was perfectly cooked. Great coffee and friendly staff.

Gorgeous atmosphere with eclectic decor. Always something new to notice. Very nice food with decent portions for the price. The staff was all friendly and approachable

this place screams ambiance 🕶. Smells amazing like a coffee scratch and sniff sticker. The most scrumptious workers. Would like to rip my heart out and put in on the table as a tip. Family friendly and the kids menu will treat you broke students well. Prices for all. Will be back again to experience this carnival of a time. 🤹♀️🎪🎪🤽♂️👑💟💅. Enjoy (if you will) cowabunga

Mum & I needed to get out of the wind & found this wee gem of a place. Friendly helpful team, with delicious looking cabinet food as well as the menu to order from. We both had the Eggs Benedict one with Bacon one with Ham, equally delicious!!!! Also nabbed a slice of Ginger banana loaf to have later on with a cup of tea. Definitely recommend a visit to Preservatorium!
