Went for a spontaneous family dinner, was seated right away and served not 10 minutes after our orders were taken . We have a picky 8 year old that loves the fish and chips , a 10 year old that fell in love with the roast beef , I also had me some beef and the mrs was served the biggest freshest seafood basket we have seen in a long time . Our hostess was awesome and the portions are nice . All in all best place we've been to in Wanganui for a long time

Great casual place for dinning. Staff were friendly and inviting. Ordered from counter and food was delivered to our table. Wait was minimal and good spacing between courses. Food was well presented with a home cooked feel. Fantastic flavors and well proportioned. Very well priced.

Got to hand it to The Brick house they never disappoint. Many occasions we have come here to enjoy good quality homely style meals and it's always worth it.From there 10 breakfast menu which is of course plentiful, to the lunch menu and then dinner.All very affordable prices in my opinion whether you wanting to do a function or enjoy a date night with a loved one. Grab a bite to eat with a friend or colleague they got ya covered there at the brickhouse.Staff are super friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere is lively even when it's a busy time of the day.Gorgeous style to the place and there's plenty of places to sit and enjoy your meals.Child friendly I celebrated my 30th here 3 years ago and had my niece and nephews and they let them play and enjoy themselves as well.There's the option of making a meal a half size because they are very big portions which is great, an entire kids menu as well.

Not gonna lie, best steak I have had in a hot while. Expectations were exceeded. Staff were wonderful, food was faultless. I had scotch fillet [medium] cooked to perfection. Opted for veges so cheese cauli, cabbage, peas carrots, a roast potato and a scoop if mashed potato, added an egg.... perfection.Not sure what this building used to be but it reeked of Whanganui history.Had to post before and after photos lol.Well done Brick House ... Five Stars

Excellent servicethe young apologised for a mistake that was not hers. Made a booking for 5 adults 2 children. While booking a table we ordered ahead as well. Definitely a wise decision. Everything was delicious. The flounder was huge so shared. Portions great. I loved my desert Doris plumb pie. Perfect amount of sweet and sour.
