About Hummingbird

Hummingbird is a long-established eatery, bar and lounge at 22 Courtenay Place in central Wellington, founded in 2000 and a recipient of a MICHELIN Guide Bib Gourmand. It has built a reputation for contemporary New Zealand cuisine, well-made cocktails and a warm, moody atmosphere.

The offer

The menu, led by the kitchen, draws on European cuisine and is served from mid-afternoon, with the cocktail bar open late. The interior pairs an elegant restaurant with a lounge bar — low lighting, dark-tiled bars, rattan chairs and velvet banquettes — giving the venue a distinctive after-dark character in the Courtenay Place entertainment precinct.

Functions & private dining

Hummingbird has a private dining room that can be booked at any time, suiting functions and private events from celebrations to corporate gatherings. Its central location makes it convenient for delegates and post-conference socialising.

Suitability for MICE

For MICE planners, Hummingbird is a strong option for private dinners, cocktail functions and networking events in central Wellington, particularly where an intimate, design-led setting is wanted. Explore more Wellington venues.
