Play Pokies at The Jolly Pub & Kitchen Kapiti in Paraparaumu

Went in for a late lunch - great meal mix of burgers and roasts. Was good and enjoyed it all.
Desserts felt a little underwhelming and pricey but the chocolate bomb was quite stunning!
Would recommend and go again!!!

Gorgeous outdoor seating area, lovely staff and amazing food (seriously try the lamb pizza). this place is always a treat to visit.

Tried out the brunch at the Jolly on the weekend! Super tasty and great service as always. Had the sweet potato fritter and it was tasty as usual. The added sweetness of the honey with the fresh coleslaw and avocado topped it off. I would have loved two of the fritters as was left wanting more (the only reason for the 4 stars on the food). Will happily go back as the person on the table next to me had the full breakfast and it looked awesome!

Everyone enjoyed their meals:
Ribs, Steak, scallops, prawns and pork belly, we'll be back again for sure, just need to master the soft runny yoke eggs before our next visit 😉

Big thumbs up for delicious dinner menu and happy professional service

We were surprised and delighted by the stunning food and service presented by the chef and waiter team for dinner on Saturday at the The Jolly pub & Kitchen Kapiti.

The drinks menu covered the bases, and the menu offered some very interesting innovation:

Some examples:

A starter:
CHILLI AND GARLIC TIGER PRAWNS: Lychee, mint, spring onion, tandoori cauliflower, courgette. (.99)

A Burger:
FRIED PORK SOUVLAKI: Yeast bread, lettuce, pickles, nduja labneh, garlic mayo, fries. (.99)

A Pizza:
JOLLY LAMB PERI PIZZA: Lamb, tomato base, mozzarella, onion, garlic, coriander, black pepper, capsicum, mayo, peri-peri sauce. (.99)

A Main
PAN FRIED MARKET FISH: Celeriac puree, wakame butter, curry leaves, shaved courgette (.99)

I had the market fish - a delicious pan-fried fillet of John Dory, accompanied by excellent bits and pieces.

And my wife had the Rack of Lamb - cooked to the perfect pink. We had a fries to share.

We had 2 wines, 1 beer and a rum. Total cost for the meal and drinksexcluding tip given was 1.

More expensive than we had expected before we arrived, but well worth the amazing tastes, and service delivered.

We will be back.
