“Very friendly service from the little bubbly Asian lady, that made our day better after the disappointment of 15% surcharges for public holdays and thinking we wouldn't get a coffee and breakfast. No surcharge, thats a bonus, the coffee was good as was the food.”

“I'm on a quest to find the best cheese scone in Christchurch. Someone recommended me this cafe, and let me tell you.... this is my sixth scone for review and you are now top of my list! Truly the best cheese scone in Chch. It's really the flavour that makes it so good. I think a lot of places focus more on texture which is not a bad idea, but it's gotta be well rounded. This scone has it all. I'd love to come back and try the gluten free one. Coffee was also amazing. The two ladies, one on till and one on coffee, were both incredible as well and had such lovely vibes. 10/10 experience”

“Ordered our hot chocolate. We were going to get a cheesescone each, but there was only one left. So decided against it. Got our hot chocolates, just as we were leaving a fresh bat h came out. We should have asked but didnt. Excellent service and hot chocolate was one of the best we have had.”

“Woah...portions are BIG....ribs were really nice and if you are not too hungry, maybe a starter portion is sufficient. their burger was also super, and beer to go with it. all good. Just be careful though if u are ordering sides, be clear what you ordered and how much extra it will cost. I ordered a side I thought came with the main course and ended up paying close to $10 for the side.”

“Awesome place for a meal and few beers. Great staff and service. Very homely and lovely food. Enjoyable evening.”

“The coffee here is a lovely dark roast and made to a high standard. There's some nice cabinet food, but I recommend the menu options, which are all delicious and reasonably priced. The seating is super-comfy and there's heaps of tables. Easy parking.”

“On vacation to NZ and stopped by for cappuccino with my brother while waiting for family who went shopping. The capp tasted great and the service was quick and friendly. I will recommend this joint in a heartbeat.”

“Reading books while having coffee? What's not to love? I ordered mocha and it was lovely. Also the toilets are really clean, to think that the cafe is busy, and,and, and,(yes 3 "ands")because they've got 3 bathrooms! With exclamation point! They've got 3 clean toilets! Normally cafe's have only one right? But they've got 3 and it's a big deal for me because I've got 2 kids 6&4 where they tell you that they need to go the toilet when it's almost too late (mom's will know what i mean). Therefore I highly recommend this to all mom's out there who just want to go out once in a while and have a simple coffee.”

“Quite impress with the quality of the food, everything looks super fresh and was delicious with no doubt. Excellent option for breakfast specially if you grab first table what makes cheaper.”

“Great drinks, berry smoothie was the best. Breakfast was very good, eggs poached perfectly and the best tomato sauce I've had in ages. Excellent service, all staff were helpful, prompt and made me feel welcome. A few other cafes in Christchurch could learn a lot from these guys. Will definitely be back.”

“This is the place to go when you want a decent large coffee and simple but delicious food. Prices are reasonable and the blueberry muffins are the best I’ve found anywhere. This is where you should go if you’re looking for a classic kiwi cafe without all the bells and whistles, just good honest food and friendly people.”

“Only tried the coffee but the coffee was made to perfection (with Unknown Chapter). Friendly and quick service. A nice small coffee stop when using the Rec Centre.”

“Spacious, great service and delicious food. I had to rush away when my breakfast was being prepared, and the staff were so understanding of this. Thank you!”

“So far so good. Our car is safe, the shuttle was nice wee ride to the airport and there is a place to have a cofe if you would like to have one”

“Delicious Big breakfast soo yummy love it”

“Friendly service, really good coffee, and a view of the estuary”
