I love Ancestral for its mix of Asian cuisine. It also has a neat little back bar that uncovered the concrete seats are heated, so you can order a cigar off the menu.

ZEALANDIA is the world’s first fully-fenced urban ecosanctuary, with an extraordinary 500-year vision to restore a Wellington valley’s forest and freshwater ecosystems as closely as possible to their pre-human state. The 225 hectare ecosanctuary is a groundbreaking conservation project that has reintroduced 18 species of native wildlife back into the area, 6 of which were previously absent from mainland New Zealand for over 100 years.
They have great family pricing and also some special night visit sessions for those who want to hunt out some night owls.
