Jack Hackett's Irish Pub 7 Dixon Street, Te Aro, Wellington 6011

"Had a meal & drinks here ladt night with some out of town friends. All fancied the WOAP burgers. They were all sold out. Fair enough, it happens. We quickly all decided on chicken burgers or fish & chips. Fish & chips were good (although the sauce was anything but Tartar). The chicken burgers, which were strips of chicken, were over cooked. One of the chicken meals, mine in particular, was terrible. So dry it was like eating rope. My meal came at least 10 minutes after my husbands, both were the same burger & ordered at the same time. The server aplogised, she didnt realise the meals were together! We've eaten here several times now & it's always been ok. I don't like to waste $ on eating out, so I won't be back to eat again unfotunately. Disappointing."

"Been coming here for years to enjoy the Tuesday quiz and the atmosphere has always been fun. The staff are super friendly but often make silly mistakes, I see this place as a good place to get a drop and have never minded and they’re always quick to make amends. Recent changes to the menu don’t fit with the bar and there isn’t a crumb of value for money in sight. The new food doesn’t really taste that good, I had the chicken burger last week and it was dry and the portion size was tiny, got a portion of fries to tide me over this week and they were unsalted and undercooked. Bad decision to make changes as the food used to be pretty good. Our group has started thinking about finding somewhere new to quiz on tuesdays. Would not recommend coming here if you’re planning on eating."

"Cool place for a quick bit to eat. Steak was cooked to perfection, chips were delish and salad was nice and fresh. Service was excellent. Have been a few times and will continue to do so :)"

"Excellent hospitality, Excellent food and drinks..menu has a good variety, I throughly recommend the pub specials which you access ordering online while you sit in the pub, don't worry if your not tech savvy the staff will help you every step of the way. We had the med-rare steak meal,cob loaf,burger..alot of tradies eating meals, a good indication meals are fast to the table and great value..Highly recommended ,mushroom sauce with the steak or the garlic butter hard to choose both lip smacking good!!"

"Hearty food, maybe a bit too much salt. Excellent service. Great location in the middle of the dining and entertaining part of the city. High and low tables, couches, outdoor smoking area, a stage for a band, even a door man to keep the overdressed out. Good range of beer. Irish themed."
