Visited the Speights Ale House in Invercargill last Thursday evening with a group of work colleagues.
Whilst the standard of food was as also consistent and good, we have to make a very special mention of our hostess, Lilly !
Effectively straight out of school and in the role for only 6 months, she was outstanding!
From the moment we sat down, she had the most vocal of the group “sorted out and under control”…. A very pleasant demeanour and an excellent memory for what everyone was ordering.
A tremendous asset to the business and someone that has a great career ahead of her

Was greeted by a lovely person named Connor, he advised he was new but he gave great service, cant say the same about the female staff who just wanted to chat an giggle leaving Connor to serve the customers as there were people waiting, I will say the food was 5 star and same for connor, personally if not putting customers first is speights new motto, then I will not be coming back and will be passing this on to anyone wanting to go there, this sort of hospitality is not what I expect from speights , hence the reason my low rating

I've come here twice and both times the stand out feature is always the staff. Every single staff member we come across is friendly and attentive without being overbearing. I can in with my parents last night, and our waiter was so, so friendly, as was everyone else who served us. The food is good, the atmosphere is warm and cozy... Can't find much fault in that!
