In many parts of Europe, the late afternoon snack is a daily ritual. In Wellington, it is finally getting its moment. For one Friday night, Amuse Snack Bar leans fully into the tradition, turning its pintxos offering into a lively, snack party celebrating kiwi tapas. Expect a rotating spread of 10 to 15 pintxos built on Amuse’s sourdough baguette, topped with combinations like bacon and egg tortilla, pork belly with persimmon relish, seared tuna with kawakawa aioli, and classic gildas. Snacks are served quickly from the yellow window, ready to eat, with sticks tallied at the end. Drinks stay close to the theme, with New Zealand vermouths, Spanish reds, and house cocktails designed for grazing. Drop in, eat well, and stay as long as you like.
