Bottomless brunches are offered at a set price and are usually scheduled for a specific period of time over which punters have access to unlimited alcohol. Williams said in the past six months his establishments have hosted more than 15,000 bottomless brunches with very few issues. A police spokesperson said at this stage they have not initiated legal proceedings in relation to bottomless brunches in Wellington. Alcohol Healthwatch executive director Nicki Jackson said bottomless brunches have the potential to increase intoxication, causing harm to those drinking and to others.
