Best roll/sandwitch ever had!! You could tell the pulled pork baguette had all been made from scratch and contrary to other reviewers the fact that they take the time and care to weigh everything is a good thing! My wife had the El Gringo which was just as good! We washed it down with a glass each of the hot... More

I went there with a few friends that knew the place. They told me I would enjoy it. I haven't been disappointed! Moustaches everywhere (check out the toilets...), and the food is great and affordable! The staff was also very friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend it if you spend some time in Queenstown!

Nice food, but too expensive for what it is. Also the way they weigh every bit of food that goes into your sandwich is a joke. So what if you get a little too much lettuce?? I'm paying for it More

There are few reviews that we find warranting a response. Generally speaking, people seem to be quite happy with our product, however, at times especially in our first year of business, we do make mistakes and for that we apologize profusely. In either case, we appreciate the feedback on both ends. This review, however, we all feel completely misses the... More

Great place! I loved the food. It was fresh and healthy! they make everything from scratch, even their sauces! That makes it 100 times better and much tastier. I don't understand why someone would complain about their prices, they are probably one of the cheapest places to eat in Queenstown!! $12 for a sandwhich but totally worth it! Usually the... More

The food was ok, but nothing special. The place just gave off the vibe of trying so hard to be cool and alternative without succeeding. An ok place to try if you are passing, but I wouldn't go out of my way to visit More

It's a good place for a quick salad or sandwich, don't tend to like eating in though. Very fresh ingredients and nice staff. Delicious soups. Big portions. Good deal for the price you pay. More

I've had lunch a couple of times from Johnny Barrs and it has been okay. I think it is a little overpriced for what it is but there is quite a good choice of sandwiches. It's okay but not my first choice for lunch in Queenstown More

So delicious! It was fresh, healthy, and fast. The place had a great atmosphere and tons of wonderful veggie options. I wish I'd had more time in Queenstown so that I could have tried some of the other wraps. There was also a deal for free internet, which is great for backpackers. It was also very close to the water,... More
