Pravda - Elegant Bistro Dining

109 Customhouse Quay Wellington Central Wellington City Wellington 6011
Pravda, literal translation 'The Truth'
Pravda, literal translation 'The Truth', nothing could be more honest about Wellingtons coffee culture. Set in the heart of the city amongst the hustle and bustle of share traders, commuters and visitors to the Lambton shopping precinct, Pravda. Located in an elegant building of yesteryear, with towering vaulted ceilings from which hang chandeliers of crystal. Stony faces of Russian presidents past stare out from the tapestries, in stark contrast to the warming friendly atmosphere.
The menu includes classic European style dishes, that you would expect of a busy modern bistro. Home to Wellingtons own Immigrant Son Coffee, Pravda combines the simplicity of a Italian caf with marble topped tables, warming tones of dark wood panelling in the bar where Lenin's bust watches over proceedings to the relaxed informal dining of its banquet style dining room.
Pravda set amongst the sights and sounds of a capital city while availing you some respite from intrusions of a modern world amongst the charm of a bygone era. Pravda, as the name implies offers the honest simplicity of bistro food, freshly roasted coffee, wines of the world and the welcome of an old friend.

This is truly a fine dining experience- lunch version!we had the lunch mains. Both have smoke salmon. We thought it would be just like the smoke salmon you get from the supermarket. But it was not! In fact, the smoke salmon they served was so delicious. I think they make their own smoke salmon. The skin can be easily removed from the salmon. One of them has potato cake. Its crispy outer layer and soft inside blended well with the smoke salmon. The poached egg was well cooked with soft egg yolk. Such luxurious lunch was a highlight of our day!

I dined at Pravda for the first time a couple of weeks ago with my Dad and 3 of his friends for a late lunch. I ordered the smoked salmon potato cakes and they were delicious. Our waitress was lovely and the service was fast. I was a little tipsy (and late) heading back to work afterwards but it was worth it!
