About Hawthorn Lounge
Found at 82 Tory Street in Te Aro, Hawthorn Lounge is a bar that has become part of the Te Aro dining scene. It sits right in the heart of Wellington, within walking distance of the centre.
Diners come here for pub food and drinks. If it is your first visit, look out for classics of the style such as steak and chips. With 134 pub & bar dining options across Wellington, this corner of the local food scene is well covered.
Hawthorn Lounge opens 5 days a week and is closed on Mondays and Sundays. The earliest start is 5 pm on Tuesdays, and the latest finish is 3 am on Tuesdays. Night owls should note the late closing on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. In total it trades for about 50 hours each week.
As a rough guide, expect to spend about $20–$40 a head at a bar like this. The neighbourhood is a busy food area – there are at least 10 other places to eat within a kilometre, so you have plenty of options for drinks before or dessert after.
