My big sister first introduced my husband and I to this cafe and my first impression was mmmmmmok what is this place? It didn’t take long for me to become under it’s spell. As we lived in Timaru back then we were not able to visit often but as we made trips north we made it our destination stop for whatever meal of the day it was. My sister is no longer able to come with us but she is with us in spirit and we continue to go to Midnight Expresso because culturally in my opinion it is the place to go. I love it and I am quite surprised that my husband always suggests that we go. I haven’t mentioned the food yet or the coffee. The best. Always consistently great. Once again We LOVE IT.

This place has become my local, I turn up in the later hours of the night at least once a week even though it’s about twenty minutes’ walk from my house.

I love the food, especially the fact the delicious all-day breakfast goes on until the kitchen closes at midnight. The person who complained about chips earlier clearly came on a bad day, because I’ve always enjoyed them a lot.

Tasty and varied counter food is also available, and their coffee is some of my favourite in the city.

The staff always seem very chatty and friendly to me, though them shouting out the orders can get a little annoying.

The main drawback with this place is the music choices, which vary and can be occasionally annoying (once sat through my cake and coffee at 2.30am tensed up at awful dubstep.)

Awesome place for vegan, vegetarian food! Of course there are meat varieties available for the rest too..

Funky paintings, sporting waiters/waitresses, cool music (too loud at times) and a great selection of snacks, meals, drinks and dessert. It can take a long wait as one person handles everything from taking orders to serving food at this cafe.

Would recommend the vegan/ vegetarian who find it hard to get egg-less cakes to try this place.

Usually my favourite late night cafe in Wellington, but tonight I left feeling severely disappointed. There was a measly selection of cakes and the chocolate cake I did select was dry and tasteless.

I also ordered the chips, which are new on the menu. This was quite possibly one of the worst things I have (half) eaten. They were so greasy and oily, I had to pat the oil out with my napkin only to discover more oil. They were soggy and the potato was not cooked properly. The kumara chips were even worse, they were soaked in oil and left a very disgusting aftertaste. I would definitely not recommend.
The cook tonight needs to know how to operate a deep fryer, I would think that chips would be a relatively easy thing to make.
