Cafe & Coffee Shop & Pub in Christchurch

“Having climbed here 2 years now, this place definitely deserves a great review. The facility is well designed with the main bouldering area having a comprehensive variety of climbing sets that get regularly rotated out with fresh ones by the route setters. There's a gym, plenty of hangboards, additional training area, spray wall, moonboard, circuit board, yoga space, cafe and even a fun climbing play area for kids called blocland. The cafe sitting area is up a flight of stairs that overlook the climbs and an adequate selection of food and beverages. Toilets are clean and personal storage cubbies aplenty.. although they can definitely be full up on busy days. I guess you can see all this details in a couple of pictures but what you can't experience without being there yourself is the friendly and accommodating staff and the very encouranging and welcoming community of regular climbers that just makes this a top locale. Closing at 10pm is a boon for many with family commitments after regular work hours.”

“An adorable cafe, with delicious food, nice atmosphere and great service and delicious coffee. All the important things.”

“I have never eaten at this place as I usually order their food on Uber eats. Today i made my order but they had forgotten my drink. I rang and spoke to the manager asking for a refund. He was unable to do this and said he would get back to me about what he would do. Within the next 20 mins, he had delivered my drink himself and gave me another one for free. I just want to say how thankful I am to him and his staff for being so kind as to go out of his way to personally deliver the drinks himself. Not to mention, the food is amazing! I would highly recommend this place to others!”

“Great cafe in Waikuku. Good choice of freshly made food in the cabinet. We had the salmon quiche and chicken filo - both were excellent. Coffee was good too. Worth a stop on SH1.”

“Grabbed a pie and coffee here this morning - the selection was amazing - everything looked clean, fresh and very appetising. The coffee was great and the lady opened to the door for me as my hands were full. Someone using their brains! I had a steak jalepeno cheese - which I couldn’t even eat it all - hubby had classic mince and cheese. Perfect temperature. $25 for the lot (2 flat whites and 2 pies) Happy as.”

“Visited today for a cup of coffee and foods. Very busy but staff served me kindly. Many choice of foods and coffee was hot. This little cafe is managed as I always see the staff cleaning every corner of the cafe. Recommended.”

“Such a gorgeous place ! Such lovely people. Drinks were great, food was great, service was great. Love the decor. Cosy relaxed vibe such a sunny garden at the back loads of plants 100% make this your morning coffee spot. Came here everyday while we were staying. Lots of vegan / vegetarian options and substitutes too.”

“This is a lovely wee place that serves your standard cafe food. Nothing fancy or over the top but very well done. The eggs bennie was superb, eggs perfectly runny and a good quantity of delicious bacon (ordered with a side of delightful crispy hashbrowns). The flat white was a perfect flavoured shot and served hot. The staff were also friendly and efficient. I came during early morning as the cafe opens at 7 am, it was a quiet spot where I could enjoy my own company. Wheelchair accessible although the tables can be a tight squeeze to get past in one. Plus an outdoor area perfect for those hot summer days. Free parking lot available but be mindful to park in areas labelled cafe.”

“Delicious food and fantastic coffee!”

“One of only few place in town where you can get authentic chinese skewer grill! Love the ambiance and the vibe, but there could be a delay with orders as they only have one tiny grill outside that does all the work. And the price is a little steep.”

“Really good coffee. Put your phone number in the tablet and build up coffee purchases until you get a freebee. Awesome service and a modern industrial vibe to the place. It smells amazing in the mornings.”

Don't be fooled by it's location or appearance, this is a must try in Christchurch, especially if you love Ethiopean. They cater very well towards plant based, gluten free, and lactose free diets.”

“Fabulous! We both really enjoyed our lunch. The meat was lovely but the roast vegetables were outstanding. It was so delicious we bought cabinet desserts to take home (also really great) and a couple of meals for another day. Outstanding value and we both loved that we were supporting a great cause as well. We will be back!”
