“Fantastic find. Cute and personal with friendly, helpful staff. Coffee was sensational - perfect strength (double shot) and eggs on toast perfectly cooked with sourdough. My new favourite Christchurch coffee spot.”

“I love popping into Spooky when I'm in Lyttleton. There's always a great vibe and a smiling face. I'm not much of a coffee drinker, but Spooky is on e of the only spots I'll order and finish a coffee ( and that says a lot). Definitely worth paying them a visit if your in town.”

“Excellent service, delicious coffee and muffins.”

“We had lunch today and everything was delicious and nourishing! They have three sizes of plates, I had the medium which was $12 and it was enough for me, I left feeling super full and happy from eating such a good food in a place with beautiful vibes. Definitely I’ll be back soon!”

“The vendor is extremely nice greets everyone with such a welcoming nature it really makes you want to come back the servings are large and very value for money!! Best place to get your lunch if you are a tradie!!”

“Great little spot. Grabbed brunch. Decor is clean and bright. Great coffee. Best cheese scone my fellow diner has had and he’s a scone fan. Poached eggs were perfect. Wait wasn’t long at all and they were very busy. Would definitely recommend.”

“The soy latte in our keepcup was exceptional. We had hoped to try the famous cheesecake, but unfortunately, it was already sold out by 1 pm. We'll have to give it a try next time we visit.”

“If you are staying near Kilmore street or Durham street and looking for delicious coffee and breakfast, must visit this place. Staff is super friendly and ambience is really good.”

“I wish I had opportunity to pass through Lincoln more in order to eat here more! Always my stop after a skate from Wigram on the Lil River Trail. No menu items available by the time I get there but even their cupboard food and definitely their coffee provide such comfort and happiness. I managed to try their soup too and that was super delish!”

“Have eaten here many times and it’s great every time. I love how I am able to bring my dog inside as it’s dog friendly here! Food is always amazing and their smoothies are delicious. Service is always friendly, Definitely recommend coming here!”

“My best friend and I came to celebrate my birthday over brunch. Lovely lady at the counter was very accommodating and welcomed us with her beautiful smile. The food was delicious!! The portion sizes are perfect and well presented. This is definitely one of my favourite Cafe's I've been to in a very, very long time. Even the coffee was great!! 5 stars all around for me. Thanks to the chef for coming to check on us and if we enjoyed our meals. Our plates were empty - the answer is a definite Yes, we did :)”

“Lovely Cafe and Roastery that is dog friendly! My partner and I enjoyed our brunch here with our Pup Tilly and ate tastey cabinet food including a famous Fairlie pie shop pie, whilst enjoying delicious coffee. Would definitely recommend”

“Great food presentation and taste good. Coffee really got the nice aromatic smell and taste wonderfull. Environment wise its okay. Will be back for more definitely.”

“Kells is the truckers dream stop... always plenty of fresh food, sandwiches, a good selection of pies and drinks... and good coffee. If you're around Amberley or heading through and need a snack for your journey... Kells NEEDS to be in your plans for the journey. Cheese scones heated with butter for the win...”

“Fantastic service, food, presentation and coffee. The owners and the team are super friendly. The cappuccino is top tier. The hollandaise on the eggs benny was probably one of the best that I've had. Great cafe in Bishopdale!”

“As an expat whenever I'm back in Christchurch I make an effort to get here for the coffee, best Vanilla latte anywhere I've been in the world and great service, highly reccomended.”

“This place reminds me of some of the great cafes in Melbourne. Very well lit, clean, refreshing warehouse style cafe. Nice selection of small simple takeaway food options and treats. Coffee highly recommended.”

“I go there almost every week with a coffee group. They know my order so well, now i dont even have to ask. The coffee is great (self confessed coffee snob. I will not drink instant) the breakfast, eggs on sourbread toast is what I usually order. It is consistently fabulous every time, thats why I order the same thing. Because I know it is great. The place is clean, tidy. Staff are friendly and inviting. Service is outstanding. I am in a wheelchair and they accommodate my needs..I cannot recommend enough..I tell other people to go there and they trust me because I am so fussy. 5/5 from me..thank you for making Fridays a day to look forward to. I really appreciate it. :)”

“Was totally unprepared for the quality of the food that arrived at our table - Creamy Mushrooms and Lambs Fry and Bacon. It took a little time to prepare because everything was freshly cooked. My lambs fry took me back some 75 years to my grandmother’s kitchen which was not too far from where Kai Kitchen is today. Terrific atmosphere, ever so friendly staff. Do try it - it is a visit you won’t regret.”

“While visiting Christchurch, I stumbled across this gem and made it my go-to please for breakfast. The owner (now nicknamed Auntie) and her team are full of life and are passionate about each customer's experience with food.”

“Great selection of food, both hot and cold. Highly recommended.”
