‘Great food, beverage in a historic-themed atmosphere at an affordable price’ is our point of difference, and we’re only two minutes over the hill from the Octagon.

Enjoy the Tramshed Bistro menu at Cableways, with its friendly English-style bar.

The relaxed atmosphere features visual cablecar memorabilia, relating to the nearby site of the old steampowered wheelhouse that provided the power for cablecars to transport locals between Kaikorai & Roslyn in the late 1800s and early 1900s.

Pride of place, is the ‘No 93′ tram out front, an original restored Roslyn cablecar, where the saloons either side can be enjoyed by our patrons for dining/drinking pleasure.

Generous servings of no-frills pub tucker served quickly. No problems there. The prices are not over the top and the staff work hard to provide a good experience for the punters.

Dunedin is not renowned for hot weather and it might be unfortunate that we chose one of the hottest evenings of the year for our visit, however I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect a popular eating establishment to provide a heat pump or two for the comfort of its patrons, even if it is needed only rarely. The stifling heat completely ruined the experience on this occasion and it was worthy of two stars at best. I’ve given it three stars because having been there before I know it’s usually a good pub tucker establishment.

Their website confirmed special Roast on Fridays 12-2. . . Well, we arrived at 1:35 to find a “Roast sold out” notice. They sure didn’t look “busy” at the time – MAYBE this was a one-off, but I’m not going back to find out. Grrrrrr

A popular haunt in Dunedin. Great service and good food. Prices reflect the food. Decor is superb. Be warned though it is popular and therefore can be busy. You shouldn’t be disappointed.

This bistro restaurant is great. Portions are huge and delicious. Service is also pretty quick and prices are just right. A must try for anyone who likes pub bistro dining.
