BIN44 Restaurant & Bar

Food was fresh and delicious! Great service, we were well looked after by the staff. We also found it really easy to order our food and drinks (and pay) from our table outside using the QR code specific to our table! Outside beautiful sunny day! We will definitely be back again. Thank you! P.s. note that chicken wings will indicate 6, but you may (like we did) get only 5. We queried it and was told that they measured by grams (weight) of the chicken not by numbers. It would be great if they were to update it to say by xxx grams rather than a specific number of chicken wings - will be more clearer. Other than that, everything was good and wings tasted delicious!

Scenic Waterfront Views: The outdoor seating area provides direct views of the harbor, perfect for enjoying a cold drink on a sunny afternoon. Indoor and Outdoor Seating: Whether you prefer the lively indoor bar atmosphere or the fresh air of the wharf, there are plenty of spots to settle in. Reasonable Pricing: Despite its prime location, the beer and food menus are considered well-priced for the quality and portion sizes offered.

Went for brunch on Sunday, I got the pulled brisket breakfast with added Hollandaise. Portion size was good and the food tasted great. Loved the brisket and the beans. Excellent service from Gabby! He made sure we were well looked after.

A rainy Monday night in Wellington saw us stumble on Bin44. The food and drinks were appreciated after a flight across the ditch; however, the staff really made the experience an absolute success. The bar staff that patiently walked me through the selection of craft beers (Brave Brewing Tigermilk IPA was a clear winner for me) and the friendly and easygoing wait staff made my first experience of the Nation capital a most positive one. Thank you to the 16Feb staff for your efforts; well done.

Had the smoked meats tasting platter - best ribs ever. Delicious honey chicken burger. Great range of beers.

Booked via First Table and decided to choose something other than my usual antipasto platter order. Went with the chicken parmigiana but would have liked to have had more of the tomato based sauce covering it all as it was quite dry. The beer tasting paddle is always a hit although a little on the steep side at $30. The fish and chips and onion rings were a little dry and over battered and the onion rings were quite oily. A softer batter would be nicer. Food made with love shows on the plate, so keep this in mind for next time. Service from one waitress was a little rude but the second waitress who took over was a lot nicer, thank you for our little chat. Overall, a few things to improve on here and it will be perfect.

On 20/12/25 at 3:15 pm,It was our first time visiting this restaurant and we accidentally ordered a large set of pork rip and chicken wings and we immediately requested to change it to a set for two people. However, the male staff member spoke very rudely and raised his voice, making us feel insulted and racially discriminated against as Asians. We canceled our order and left. We will not be returning. This was very bad service. This was the worst dining experience I have ever had.

We had walked around the waterfront looking for a place to grab a quick bite. We came across Bin44 and decided to give it a try. Laura was very pleasant and answered any question we had before ordering drinks. We also discovered they have a $26 lunch menu that had exactly what we were looking for. The Perro pizza and fish & chips were both very tasty. The selection of beers was also quite extensive with many options to choose from.

Great spot on the harbor for classic fish and chips and a glass of outstanding NZ Sauvignon Blanc. Outdoor dining was perfect for the sunny summer day

Elliot is a legend - the best service you could ever ask for and the best cocktails imaginable. He makes the experience at a great place so much greater - thank you we will be coming back - a lot!!

Service was ok but the food is great. Would recommend reserving a table/ booking. It is a busy spot!

A nice dinner spot with plenty of tasty beer to choose from! I ordered the Asian beef & prawn salad - so many colors and textures - it was very good! We also got a pizza - the bbq sauce looked to be a fruit topping but definitely tasted bbq - it was decent. I'd say this is a great place for brew and apps after a hard days work!

This is a very popular restaurant and bar at Queens wharf. You may expect a "pub" style menu but its offerings are better quality than that. The food is good and as it's popular the service can take a while. But it's a really nice place. My companion and I enjoyed the Hummus, served with mountains of bread and they were very flexible in making me a Salad that was converted from one of the menu items. I was very appreciative of that. Overall it's a good place to have lunch weekday or weekend - it's relaxed and I'll be back. Thank you.

Amazing food and wine, but terrible table service! I was left to find my own table, wasn't sure what was going on when I waited for a fairly long time to even get a menu, only to then be waiting around - and looking around - for wait staff to take my order of any kind! Again, when time to get the bill, it was very unclear whether I was meant to go up and pay or have the bill.. No one seemed to want to wait or serve However the food was absolutely amazing and a good glass of wine too, so it was unfortunate that poor service kind of left a little to be desired!

Solid modern atmosphere, greeted at the door quickly. Beer list goes on for days! Had the Wild & Woolly- little brown kiwi. American Express friendly, classic music. Seafood chowder- lite flavor chowder with fresh seafood in good portion. Rotating beer list leaves plenty IPA for the brew connoisseur. Lamb Papadelle- satisfying lamb stew taste with nicely cooked flat noodles. Would order again on a cold day. Friendly service- informative and courteous wait staff. Cons- none to really note. Lite the candle next time maybe? Enjoy your meal- good restaurant choice for the night.

Service was appalling, food was poor quality, pork belly swimming in apple sauce out of a can, pizza was rubbish, Steak was poor quality, table was filthy and unclean. We didn't get what we ordered. Shockingly over priced food. Worst meal I have had in a year. Irish manager couldn't give a toss and was disrespectful. NO ONE IN THE RESTAURANT HAD THEIR VACCINE PASS CHECKED. Do not eat here.

The service was a little sporadic (but friendly!), very slow at first then actually got too fast with several people tending the table. But a great location on the wharf and fun, classy atmosphere. Beer and wine lists are both extensive with some wonderful local options. I had the market fish and it was cooked perfectly. If you are out and about and feel like getting a tiny bit fancy, stop here and get a great meal.

Just had dinner at Bin 44. We had the cheese platter and sticky pork ribs. Absolutely delicious and the staff were wonderful, very friendly and obliging. We finished off with the Brownie base cheesecake, again, delish!!!!! Will definitely recommend!!!!

Who ever thought adding bolognese to hummus has no tastebuds. Also it is not flat bread as stated omenu but under grilled stale pita bread.

Delicious food. Tomato pumpkin soup was scrumptious, and lamb pie was also great. Chocolate mousse was a perfect end to the meal. Friendly waiters and good atmosphere.
