Six Barrel Soda Company

Properly situated on Dixon Street in the space that used to occupy the old Eva Dixon’s café, Six Barrel Soda Co. serves up a range of soda, coffee and small bites to Wellington locals. The most unique part of the café lies in the making of their soda syrups, with all ingredients and spices hand-prepped and cut fresh for each batch. With seasonal syrups in the works (read: grapefruit and elderflower) they currently carry kola nut, lemon, cherry & pomegranate, raspberry & lemon, lime, vanilla cream and ginger as their staples.

The process takes about 24 hours while they let the flavors combine and intensify, after which the syrups are bottled and labeled by hand, making each one slightly unique. The bottles are currently sold for customers to take away or to make drinks on site in the café. SBSC syrups are stocked in a few Australian cities currently with plans to expand, but only in a capacity that will retain their small batch method. Looking to get your hands on a bottle? You can peruse their stockists here.

i was sad to see that eva dixons was gone last time we were back in nz for a visit. it was always our first stop, usually for breakfast, after leaving the airport. i am glad to see something else so fabulous has taken its place. now we have a new place to visit next time we are home.

and, la boca loca in Miramar is now our first port of call after leaving the airport... lucas and his team do AMAZING breakfasts!
