   Great wee spot, close to the Ara University campus. Very cozy, with an upstairs area and couches for comfort. I had a long black and a salami pretzel roll. The long black was a tad bitter for my taste but went very well with the pretzel roll that had mustard and sweet pickle to balance it out. The service was nice enough, though they were busy so hard to judge. The atmosphere was nice, great for a meeting business or casual. Maybe not for too large of a group. Overall, it's a nice spot with delicious food if a little pricey(but what isn't these days) and a good place for lunch for a group around 2-5 peeps.

   Just want to preface this review by saying bakery is really good and worth a visit! Any comments/critiques are simply to distinguish it between very good or elite status. I had a long black, almond croissant, beef pie and pretzel. Cost me $24 which is pretty reasonable I think. The Almond croissant deserves the hype it gets in the other reviews. Very good stuff, and right up there with the best I've had. I particularly liked it was nice to handle and not really messy like some others. The pie was also good. More of a rustic, home style pie I would say, rather than a traditional kiwi pie. Good flavour, but the pastry was not as flakey and crisp as I would like. It was also just warm rather than hot. I would have preferred hotter. The tomato sauce was a standout though! Homemade style with a nice acidity. I'm usually a watties purist but this was a nice change. The pretzel was also fine but not the favourite I've ever had. I didn't enjoy the sesame seeds really and the dough was not quite the right texture for me if I was being pedantic. The coffee was a good quality New Zealand coffee but nothing amazing/elite. Also was happy to see the sauce and butter came in separate ramekins rather than single serve plastic. Staff were super helpful and the atmosphere is great. Plenty of variety for seating. There is outside seating if it's a nice day. They have a change table, although it's in the only toilet from what I could see. Would give 4.5 stars if I could.

   Had an almond croissant and a long black. The coffee was okay. However, it was a bit bitter so I expect the espresso is overextracted. Price was good as seen In one of my photos The croissant was one of the best pastries I have ever had. It was well sized and every bite was delicious. I have also had their breads before and will say that everything they bake is very high quality and very reasonable in price considering what you get. Overall i would heavily recommend this place.

   What a fantastic bakery! There are loads of baked goods to choose from, a menu and the coffee is great. I love the red brick exterior (there's outdoor seating) and inside is super cute with a cool fit out. I didn't need an almond croissant, but I had an almond croissant, because almond croissant. It was amazing. Good on me for this life choice. Combined with friendly service, Bohemian Bakery Cafe is definitely worth a visit!

   Best croissant in the town. Friendly staffs too. However, limited seat available, avoid peak hour for better experience.

   Lovely cafe! Alternative feel about this cafe. Cutely located not too far away from the Hight street. Coffee was impressive. Somehow I loved the spatial experience upstairs where you can overlooking into the kitchen area. Also plenty of outdoor space. Another great cafe in Christchurch.
