Nice atmosphere, wonderful food for the vegans too, sat outside. Loved it
Very popular place that had people queing to get in. The food was worth it though
So funky.The welcome was amazing and quite bohemian.The food and service were astonishing.A must visit
food was pretty good. but we were seated by a staff member at a large outdoor table for two of us and later asked to move to accommodate a big group after being there 20 minutes. we were moved to a much less comfortable table and our food got lost and forgotten in the process and staff were pretty apathetic about it
The slightly dark interior has a great atmosphere!However, I actually wanted to sit on the terrace, but I ended up choosing a seat inside the restaurant without realizing that there was a terrace in the back...😂Next time I would like to sit on the terrace on a sunny day!Waffle's blueberry was delicious and had just the right amount of sweetness.The bread and burritos next to the cash register looked delicious, so if you're looking for a light meal, be sure to check out the area next to the cash register as well.
Once again an awesome cappuccino and this morning Eggs Bene with Salmon and their heavenly portabello mushrooms.Been here a few times and been impressed with the food and service each time.
Came here to check this place out because the Hobbitses used to love coming here while filming Lord of the Rings. Ended up coming back the next day. The food is fantastic!! The best spot for breakfast in Wellington, bar none.
The huevos rancheros was outstanding. Would love to come back and eat this again. Great coffee, and awesome turmeric latte.Kids menu options available.We sat out the back and loved the heated seats. So much character.Loved it.
Food always good enough when busy. The staff are lovely and very accommodating, especially to the solo diner. Love this place and when the sun is out it is radiating satisfied diner vibes.
A bit upset that FIDEL’S cafe agrees with the government position against WFH. FIDELs cafe against workers rights…. That’s quite shameful
Such a great little place. I can see why it is so popular. Great food and great service. The staff were amazing and the food was delicious!
Such kind staff but the last two times we have come here (one non-busy day with lots of tables free and one busy day) it's been a long wait, not only on coffees and food but also to initially be welcomed and to pay at the end. It's a lovely place if you have the time to spare though!
I LOVE this place the food is amazing great service and pretty fast free WI-FI Parking was a bit pricey though.
Ordered: mighty brisket sandwich, two Fidel's feast, and chicken and waffles. Mojitos, mocha shake.Sanwhich was tasty, Fidel's feast, eggs were cooked perfectly as requested. Substitutions and special requests were perfect and no problem. Chicken and waffles are delish, have ordered before, and came back specifically for this dishStaff were gorgeous and attentive
2024: Had been some what of a regular the last two decades, and not one to post 1 star reviews but had recently experience what Fidel's become. For whatever reason, the lack of service was noticeable.Wait times to be seated, coffee orders taken and to be received, exceeded the 40min mark.Water cups were covered in dust.We didn't even attempt to order food, knowing it was quite the investment on time.Huge let down as I've praised Fidel's through the years.*2009: Delightful brunch affair, with great coffee.****
We had a very nice brunch. Quite busy and a little cramped but good service and excellent food.
Try breakfast burritos at the food counter. The BEST burrito in New Zealand. This cafe is the most favourite place in Wellington!!!! Love this cafe so much.
In my opinion it's quite salty and oily maybe because I am asian.i tried because it was recommended for Thier breakfast but it sort of salty for me . The muffins are great for me and I forgot to take a picture of it as I was way too hungry and I got to say the mushroom tastes so so good for their main course brunch.The pie is crunchy.
The avo toast was amazing! Lovely staff and decorations. I wonder how they came up with the theme.
Very nice Cafe with a decent amount of food choices. The food is very good and the shakes are the best we had in NZ.If you are Wellington, going to Fidel's is recommended.
Best thick shakes in town, although you’ll pay for it at $11. But worth it. We tried their big breakfast and Caesar salad too. Both delicious. Get there early because it does get really busy after 10am. It’s a little cold in winter because half their space is outdoors too. Enjoy!
