Play Pokies at Waxy's Irish Pub in Invercargill

Warm and comfy on a cold night lovely staff nice wine great chips but the rest of the 0 meal was marginally edible

Large party of people. Were received nicely by staff and gave orders but it took over an hour before getting food. Said printing issue. I didn't know they printed our food. Disappointing because we heard they were good and staff were great.

Waxy's Irish pub is an institution in Invercargill. A very popular spot for a few drinks with friends or a good hearty Southland meal. Meals are tasty and overall pretty good. The seafood chowder is actually creamy and delicious and full of seafood, a bargain for the price compared to other restaurants near by. The pasta and bangers and mash were nice but averge, the loaded wedges were also very run of the mill and frankly disappointing. The chicken tacos are a treat and went down well.
Service was the biggest downfall, waitress seemed new, distracted and seemed stressed with her workload which meant simple items like soup spoons with the soup were missed. However 5 people and a drink 9 bucks. Very reasonable.

Good size toy box for wee ones and very accommodating of children. We did have a long wait and found some of the staff a bit forgetful but they were very apologetic especially seeing as we had a little one with us. They were busy and most likely understaffed which we understood. Great sense of humor with the dry southern kiwi vibe. Being locals we loved it. Highly recommend the waffle pudding ??'?

Nice and clean js a tad dark. Had tacos without the slaw and side of chips for lunch, as it was easier on my gut lol came in 3 ate the other one, flavorsome and light. Would have again
