Bethel Woods

Bethel Woods is a rooftop bar and American BBQ destination located at 73 The Terrace in Wellington's CBD, operated by Star Group. The venue's signature feature is its rooftop garden terrace, equipped with a retractable roof and heaters that keep the space welcoming throughout the year. An imported American pit smoker on the rooftop produces slow-cooked meats that anchor an indulgent BBQ-inspired menu, complemented by 16 beers on tap, spirits, and cocktails. An indoor fire, DJ booth, and a lively live music programme — including weekly Friday live sessions — create a vibrant pub atmosphere that draws a loyal following. Bethel Woods also offers versatile function spaces for private events, making it a go-to venue for gatherings and celebrations in the Wellington capital.
