The relaxed atmosphere of The Brick House Restaurant feels just right within this beautiful old historic building, just across from the Royal Wanganui Opera House.

Wholesome kiwi-style meals & desserts are fully prepared onsite, with homestyle roasts, succulent steaks & seafood plus many other dishes. Mains are served with your choice of salad & chips or six fresh vegetables.

Desserts such as apple crumble, steamed pud & custard, pavlova-roll, bread & butter pudding and Brick House’s signature lemon meringue pie, are all prepared fresh on the premises, along with a further selection on the daily menu which changes regularly.

You’ll enjoy a varied wine list, along with beer, spirits, and other non-alcoholic beverages.
Note that drinks are purchased at the bar, and Diners order and pay at the counter, after which the friendly staff will deliver your orders to the table. Staff and patrons alike enjoy this as everyone gets the chance to chat with each other and the casual friendly atmosphere makes for a relaxing time out!

Families will enjoy the opportunity to eat out together at a reasonable price with family-friendly menu options.
Groups can pay all in one account or individually.

The private function room offers seating for up to 40 (or 60 for mixed standing/sitting).

OMG what great value for money. Their food is really tasty and I eat there many times a week. Nothing seems to be a bother for the friendly staff and I recommend to all I can. A business to be proud off,well done.

It seemed like an adventure in a rustic setting but we were confronted by Friday the 13th in culinary form. The food was appalling. Even “safe dishes” like the shrimp cocktail were destroyed; discoloured shrimps that tasted as though they had been soaked for days in raspberry flavoured Raro emerged from the kitchen in a small stainless steel bowl. I will not talk about the steaks as even thinking about the grill top murder committed at the Brickhouse causes me physical pain. On a positive note, the cooking staff do not work behind the bar. I am sure that this is why my draught Tui tasted fine. I was not brave enough to sample the wine list.

This has got to be the busiest place in town!! Went there before a show at the opera house and had a really good meal. The staff were happy and helpful and the steak was superb. My partner’s roast and veges was fresh and piping hot. Lovely home-made desserts also, hard to choose just 1. Great range of drinks and all very reasonably priced. Lovely fire going too. Definately will go back.

We go to the Brick House all the time, sometimes with groups, and we always enjoy the food and the atmosphere. The staff are friendly, the food is great and it is always busy. Food and drink prices are very reasonable.
