“Great variety of play ground equipment for young children up to 7yrs old. Plus a fantastic little bike track!”

“Lovely lady on the till/checkout was very helpful and friendly when asked about donations.”

“Great mini golf course, we had fun with it! (Adult and teens) Clever and creative, good amount of challenge. Definitely recommend. Discounted on Fridays too which was an added perk! We played the hour before closing, will come back another time to try the other activities.”

“Still one of the best mini golf courses I’ve ever been to. Very well maintained and quite the challenge.”

“A great venue with numerous touch 7 games being played while there. Nice bar facilities with large area facing some of the grounds.”

“Great pub to have a catch up and have a cold beer”

“The store manager Sam is amazing. He went out of his way to help me and my sister, when other kmart ricc team were less than helpful!”

“Even thought it's one of the smaller Warehouses, it always has a really good range of products.”

“A big The Warehouse with a large selection of items. Decent prices and a very big car park. Friendly and helpful staff. Easy to access from both sides of Blenheim Road. Open till midnight.”

“Excellent for football ⚽ my grandson loved it”

“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.”

On the plate at Joe's Garage Cranford Street, the idea is breakfast‑and‑brunch and well judged. Breakfast plates are tidy and satisfying. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy. Pricing lines up with the offer.

Woolston Club Inc leans into a simple, bistro‑style approach with tidy execution. The team keeps things friendly and organised. Plates offer plenty without weighing things down. Value feels fair for the quality.

“It's got excellent hammocks and a gigantic mattress protected against the elements. A place in the city where you can have a comfortable snoze.”

“Mind relaxing Green environment”

“Good clean park . Good children's play. Sport there clean toilets”

“Had to go to Christchurch a day early than planned. And booked here last minute. The service and communication was amazing. The rooms is fantastic. The bathroom and shower great. Beds are so comfortable and a great night sleep. Would definitely recommend booking here”

“i love this store. but sadly a lotta people come in and treat the workers wrong. treat people like how you wanna be treated. seriously. if your kid is having a tanty take him/her outside and let her cry. stop making there job harder.”

“Just been there to purchase a bike lock what a genuine helpful person on the customer service counter.”

“Amazing customer support, each and everyone person working there was great. Mark resolve the issue extremely well, even though they were out of stock on something but helped me get the right one.”

“My wife, Mary, and I found ourselves back in Christchurch under difficult circumstances. Amidst the challenges, we needed a nurturing and supportive environment for our wee boy, Charlie. From our very first visit, the team at Alpha Preschool welcomed us with open arms. One teacher in particular, Charlotte, made an immediate and lasting impression on Charlie, perhaps because they shared the same name! Every morning, Charlotte would go out of her way to help settle Charlie, and this gave us such peace of mind knowing that he was in safe, loving hands. Over the 11 months we were at Alpha, Charlie was given an environment to grow and thrive, he made wonderful friends, which he still talks fondly about. The caring and dedicated staff had such a positive impact on his life during what was a challenging time for our family. To Chris & Maria and everyone at Alpha, thank you from the bottom of my heart for being part of my family’s journey. If you're considering Alpha Preschool for your little one, don’t hesitate—give them a call and schedule a visit. The love, attention, and care they provide is truly something special.”

“We love Annabels, my daughter has been going there since February and she is thriving. She has gained alot of confidence in that time. She loves her teachers whom are warm and supportive with her learning. She loves the big outdoor play area with loads of room for the children. Annabels is her favourite place.”

“This is a great kindy. It has a huge outdoor area including a large covered area which is good for when it's raining. There are so many different activities set up to keep the kids busy. My daughter loves coming home with crafts she's made using the glue gun! The hours are perfect for my 4year old as she doesn't come home too tired and over stimulated!”

“Doubledot Media is one of the best companies I have ever worked with. It's well-organized and efficient, and the people genuinely care about the quality of their work and the satisfaction of their customers.”

“I have been part of the Kindercare Rangiora family for the past seven years. I say family because that's what they make you feel like. They have helped me through the seperation with my husband and made sure my girls always knew they were loved and had a voice of their own. Both my girls are very different but they catered for their needs individually. Always easy to talk to about anything and give a lot of support. At times when I was struggling they always made me feel like I was doing the best I can and that is enough. The whole staff there have definitely been part of my village and I am forever grateful to have been part of that family for so long. It has been a big adjustment to not see them every day, now that both my girls are at school. If you are looking for a safe, fun and loving environment for your kids to be able to grow and learn then I suggest you take them to Kindercare Rangiora and enjoy being part of the family there.”

“Excellent preschool. Reflects our home rhythms very well. Wonderful caring teachers.”

“My 2 year old loves coming to Jeffries.”
