The Bottle-O Dixon Street is a liquor store in Te Aro, Wellington, operating under liquor licence #49D/OFF/16/2025 and run by Maatru Enterprises Limited. As part of the Bottle-O network, the store stocks a wide range of beer, wine, spirits, RTDs, port, cider, non-alcoholic drinks, confectionery and snacks, and gifts, with shopping available in-store.
The wine range alone spans red, white, sparkling, fortified and cask wine, running from everyday drinking brands like 19 Crimes, Banrock Station and Bay & Barnes through to well-known New Zealand labels such as Allan Scott, Babydoll, Ata Rangi and Amisfield — covering a broad span of styles and price points under one roof. Beer, spirits and RTD sections are organised as their own departments, and the store regularly runs specials across wine, spirits, beer and RTD categories, alongside gift cards for those buying for someone else.
As with any licensed liquor store in New Zealand, customers must be 18 years or older to purchase, and the store promotes responsible drinking as part of its operations.
The Bottle-O Dixon Street sits in the heart of Te Aro, Wellington, offering the kind of broad, one-stop liquor selection typical of the Bottle-O network. The store operates under liquor licence #49D/OFF/16/2025 and is run by Maatru Enterprises Limited, with shopping available in-store at its Dixon Street location.
The range covers the full spread of what you'd expect from a well-stocked bottle shop: beer, wine, spirits, ready-to-drink beverages (RTDs), port, cider and non-alcoholic options, plus confectionery and snacks and a selection of gifts, including gift cards for anyone buying on someone else's behalf.
Wine is broken down into red, white, sparkling, fortified and cask varieties, and the depth on the red and white sides in particular spans a wide range of price points and styles. On the more everyday end, brands like 19 Crimes, Banrock Station, Arrogant Frog and Bay & Barnes offer approachable, familiar options across reds, whites and rosé. Further up the range, the store carries respected New Zealand labels — Allan Scott from Marlborough, the Babydoll range across Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Rose and Sauvignon Blanc, and premium Pinot Noir from both Ata Rangi and Amisfield, two names well regarded within New Zealand's wine scene, particularly out of Central Otago and Martinborough respectively.
That breadth — from budget-friendly cask and everyday drinking wine through to sought-after single-region Pinot Noir — means the wine wall alone can cater to a casual midweek purchase or a more considered bottle for a special occasion.
Beyond wine, the store organises beer, spirits and RTDs as their own dedicated sections, each with specials that rotate regularly — the store's site specifically calls out Wine Specials, Spirits Specials, Beer Specials and RTD Specials as areas worth checking before a visit. Port and cider round out the alcoholic side of the range, while non-alcoholic drinks are available for those not drinking, alongside confectionery and snacks for anyone picking up something to go with their purchase.
Because a liquor store's inventory and specials shift frequently — new vintages arrive, promotions rotate, and stock varies — the most reliable way to see exactly what's currently on the shelf or on special is to check in-store or via the store's specials page directly, rather than relying on a fixed list.
The Bottle-O Dixon Street is located at 94 Dixon Street, Te Aro, Wellington 6011. It keeps slightly different hours across the week: Monday runs from 12pm to 8pm, Tuesday through Saturday from 10am to 9pm, and Sunday from 1pm to 8pm — worth noting since the store opens later and closes earlier on both the start and end of the week compared to the midweek stretch.
As with any licensed liquor retailer in New Zealand, customers must be 18 years of age or older to purchase alcohol, and the store promotes responsible drinking as part of how it operates.
For questions, current stock, or specials, the store can be reached by phone at 04 385 0924 or by email at [email protected], and it maintains a presence on Facebook for updates. Shopping at this location is in-store only, so customers looking for online ordering and delivery would need to check whether a nearby Bottle-O branch offers that service instead.
