A Gastropub in the heart of the CBD

The Duke of Wellington. Victor of the Battle of Waterloo. Wearer of snazzy boots. Namesake of the coolest little capital in the world.
What is less well known about the Duke, is that after a long day on the battlefield, he enjoyed a nice bevvy and a hearty meal, in the company of interesting and beautiful people.

So to honour the old Duke, on the very spot that he first landed in what would become Wellington back in 1787, we’ve created The Duke of Wellington Gastro Pub. We provide an array of lovely, local bevvies and delicious, hearty meals, for you to enjoy, in stylish, warm and welcoming surroundings. You just need to gather a few of your most interesting and beautiful friends and head on down to see us. What better way to get there, than via train?!

There are strictly 100 limited seats available for this special evening out - whether you're wanting to treat yourself or spend a relaxed evening with your partner or one of your friends! Get in now to avoid missing out.
