Dinner, lunch, breakfast, wonderful coffee, sunny garden, Wi-Fi

Olive is part of the furniture of the Capital's most wonderful, infamous and Bohemian street. We love the art, the attitude and the mild chaos that makes it, and we've tried to bring a bit of that spirit inside - along with the friends, furniture and odds 'n ends we've found along the way.

Olive wakes early and stays up right though dinner, six days a week.

On Sunday we're brunching it up till three. As well as breakfast, lunch, brunch and dinner, you'll find an eclectic mix of cakes and savouries to eat in or take away, and an 'always-on' tapas menu that's not always Spanish! Our sunny garden is growing to twice the size to accommodate the happy olive tree we planted all those years ago. The garden will also sport a new grill and bar, more tables, much nicer chairs and, to top it all, a sail to keep the weather out.

Escape to Beach Babylon cafe & restaurant, your slice of retro beach paradise. At Beach Babylon, we are celebrating the comfort and style of cosmopolitan kitsch, and retrospective beach glamour. Our mantra is simple: great coffee, great food, great service and fantastic times, sunrise to sunset.

Experience our casual-cool dining, local beers and retro fondue.It's your harbour from a hectic life, your shelter from a Wellington southerly.Dine outside or in, with free parking on Wellington's most beautiful street
