About Moxies

I’m excited to introduce Moxies Restaurant, a relaxed cafe-style spot tucked right into the heart of Palmerston North Central at 67 George Street, Palmerston North 4410, New Zealand. From the moment you walk past, it gives off that easygoing energy that makes you want to slow down, grab a seat, and stay a while. Moxies is the kind of place that works just as well for a quick coffee catch-up as it does for a laid-back meal with friends, and that flexibility is part of its charm. The space feels welcoming rather than polished, with a casual vibe that suits morning visits, midday bites, and unhurried evenings alike. If you like options, you’ll appreciate how effortlessly Moxies fits into your day, offering outdoor seating when the weather plays along, dine-in comfort when you want to settle in, and handy takeaway or delivery for those busier moments. The menu leans into crowd-pleasing variety, so whether you’re after a quality coffee, a quick bite between errands, or a table filled with small plates to share, it all feels easy and approachable. Drinks are well covered too, with beer, wine, and other alcoholic options sitting comfortably alongside coffee, making the place feel versatile without trying too hard. What stands out is how inclusive the offerings are, with vegetarian and vegan options woven naturally into the menu rather than treated as an afterthought. As someone introducing this spot, I’d say Moxies shines because it doesn’t force a single dining experience on you; instead, it adapts to how you want to eat, drink, and spend your time. That relaxed confidence, paired with a central location and genuinely cafe-style atmosphere, makes it a reliable go-to for locals and visitors who want something simple, social, and consistently enjoyable. It’s especially appealing if you value places that feel familiar on the first visit, where service options and menu choices quietly support everyday routines without overcomplicating the experience.

No hate to other spots in Palmy, but nothing beats Moxies! Every time I agree to go to another cafe, I regret not just going to Moxie. The chef is top tier. Every time I order the pork belly burger, the pork is cooked to perfection, and the burger is spilling over with melted cheese. After being impressed for the millionth time, I’m only now deciding to write a review, and I can’t imagine how many other people loved the food and staff but never wrote one. Hats off to the Moxie team, because y’all know how to feed us well. Thank you!

Dined in at Moxies and it turned out to be one of the better brunch experiences my family and I have had. We ordered the Bad M.F Breakfast, Lamb Buttie, Seafood Chowder, and Waffles, something for everyone, and everything was packed with flavour. The seafood chowder was one of the best we’ve ever had, and the big breakfast nailed the classic done right. The waffles were perfectly crunchy on the outside and soft inside, and the homemade bread in the Lamb Buttie was a standout. The only minor critique would be that the hollandaise had a bit too much vinegar. Overall, a great spot with a diverse menu, generous portions, and nothing over $30 amazing value for the quality. Highly recommend
