Sprig & Fern Tinakori Road - Wellington

22nd Feb Update

The building work has all but been completed, beer is on it's way to Wellington from Nelson and the taps will be tested this week.  Just the final Council paperwork then doors open...  Like the Tinakori Rd facebook page for the very latest info and news from the new Wellington Sprig.

1st Feb 2012 Update

Can you imagine sitting here with a beer or 3 berry cider watching the Wellington world go by?

The weatherboard exterior has been totally repainted.

Beautifully bright, airy interior with the old stove to add character.

You can just imagine seeing you mates outside through the window and saying "nah, stop for a minute, come in and have a pint"

We will keep you up to date with the renovation work.  Also visit and like the Tinakori Rd faceboook page.

As most people are used to seeing the former Botanic Cafe and Restaurant from the road.



Looking out onto the street from the bright interior.



The former cafe fittings before removal.



A hive of activity as the building gets remodelled to create the "Sprig and Fern" feel - no TVs, no pokies and no pool table.  Just expertly brewed craft beers and good conversation.



GIB Board going up.



The old stove is a real piece of history and looks great with the brick surround.



The name of the old cafe is removed in readiness for the Sprig and Fern name to go up.
