Parrot Jigger -brewery-bistro

Wow! My partner and I decided to try the Parrot Jigger for dinner tonight. Being a Monday night it was extremely quiet. And being a pub, you expect normal pub fare. But no! Our meals were exquisite! My partner ordered the pork belly, and I had the ricotta spinach stuffed chicken. Everything was perfect I kid you not. The presentation was amazing. My partner also made the comment that every part of the meal was the same temperature hot. Usually you'll get cold veggies on your plate or something. Not here. Speaking of veggies... I have NEVER enjoyed carrots so much in my life! Beautiful!We walked away absolutely blown away with our meals. Very VERY impressed. Will definitely be going back! We eat out quite regularly, but that was the best meal we have had in ages.

As only just moved to Lower Hutt from wellington, I've become a regular at this bar. The great selection of craft beers is why we first went . They definitely do the best steaks, always being cooked perfectly and their pizzas are delicious to nibble on!!The staff although young are very friendly, always refilling our glass! the deck will be great in summer time

Had dinner here last night. Food was amazing and presented really well. Service wasn't as good as expected Looked like she would rather not be there. Lovely place for a night out and the chocolate treat at the end top it off. Thanks guys!

Went for lunch with my 5 year old son. Standard food pub, good prices and fast service. Kids menu was standard but he enjoyed it all.

About 13 of us, 8 adults and 5 childen arrived without booking for lunch. We were told that we should have booked because there were so many of us which is a fair call but we would have been put in the Function Room shut away from the main area which I would not have liked. Because there was another large group already in the function room they moved the tables around in the 'dinning ' room adjoining the main area which I preferred. The food was resonably priced and adequate. The childrens meals were $7.00, mini hotdogs, chicken nuggets and one other choice I can 't remember and chips which the parents in the group found acceptable. The Pizzas were a good price at $10, about three people had the big breakfast, $18 and they were disappointed with it. I had the steak with bernaise sauce, $20, which was cooked to perfection, only wish there was a bit of salad along with the chips. Service was Ok, I think the staff were very busy and I will at least book next time but ask not to be shut away in the function room
