Where to eat and stay in Tawa

20 cafés, restaurants, bars, hotels and motels in Tawa, Wellington — compiled from open data and public registers. Free to search, and no venue pays to appear.

We hold 20 venues in Tawa — 19 places to eat and 1 to stay. That makes it the 13th-largest of the 111 towns and suburbs we cover in Wellington, carrying 1% of the region's venues.

Of the places to eat, 32% are cafés against a national figure of 28%. Tawa is 4 points more café-heavy than the country as a whole, which usually points to daytime and weekend trade rather than an evening dining scene. The full split is 6 cafés, 5 restaurants, 6 takeaways, 1 bars and 1 pubs.

12 of the 19 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are coffee shop (3), fish and chips (3) and chinese (2). Relative to the rest of the country Tawa is unusually strong on fish and chips and coffee shop — those appear here at a higher rate than the national average.

On the practical detail: 2 publish opening hours (10%) and 5 have outdoor seating. That trails the 23% national average — worth ringing ahead rather than trusting the listing.

Places of a similar size — North Dunedin (20), Miramar (20), Hobsonville (20) and Te Rapa (20) — average 10% accommodation. Tawa runs at 5%, much the same, so on this measure it behaves like its peers.

All of this is derived from open data rather than collected from listings sites: OpenStreetMap for the venues, public registers for verification. No venue in Tawa yet carries the six recorded attributes needed for its own page, so the rest are listed here, because a page with only a name and a map pin on it would be worth nobody's time. A blank field means unrecorded, not absent. Nothing here is scraped from a commercial directory, no venue has paid to appear, and we publish no ratings or reviews of our own.
