With so many herbal remedies, botanical tonics and plant-based wellbeing rituals on offer, Wellington Apothecary is an absolute treat. Tucked away on Cuba Street, this calming sanctuary is a welcome reprieve from the city’s hustle and bustle - a place to slow down, breathe deeply and discover something that helps you feel good, inside and out.

The atmosphere here is exactly what you’d expect from a space devoted to good, healthy living. It’s calm. It’s serene. It’s stylish too, with whitewashed walls, reused timber and an alluring shop front that draws you into a world of herbal teas, natural skincare and nourishing tonics. Qualified herbalists and naturopaths are always on hand and really know their stuff, whether you’re curious about holistic therapy, herbal medicine or a more tailored remedy. Many of the products are crafted on-site and handmade in small batches, from botanical teas and tonics to skincare and other natural remedies, making each visit feel considered, sensory and personal.

Wellington Apothecary also invites you deeper into the world of plant-based wellbeing through workshops and blending sessions held within the space. Here, you can learn to create scents, candles, tea blends and more or simply explore the rituals and remedies that make this local apothecary such a special Cuba Street stop.
