Aubergine has just the right ambience for an intimate evening dinner, the food has never been less than excellent and we are made to feel very welcome.”

“We had a function at Flamingo Joe's and it was really excellent. Nice food (set menu), very reasonably priced and great service. They accommodated all dietary needs and were super flexible. It's a fun venue with a lot of atmosphere - we booked out the restaurant space which was perfect for our needs. Highly recommend for any functions at all, both in terms of value for money and for a good night out on the waterfront.”

“First time visiting for lunch on a Thursday & the place was packed. You definitely need to make a reservation & wait to be seated. Once you have your table, you need to get back up into the queue to place your order but the staff are fast & efficient and it doesn’t take too long. Meals came out in good timing considering how busy it was & they were delicious with GF noodle options.”

“Cool atmosphere! Creative cocktails served alongside classics. And friendly conversation. Bartender Maisa was a joy to visit with, and Peter brought serious commitment to his trade. If you can get in, you’ll be rewarded with a great experience. Go to Forresters Lane.”

“Highly recommend. I absolutely loved my breakfast. The omelette was delicious and the butter was served at room temperature so it actually spread on my toast. The service was fast but you weren't rushed. Great chilling music played in the back ground.”

“Absolutely outstanding all round! Highly recommend this place! The service was amazing, it's a beautiful restaurant and the food was to die for!

“Service was fantastic from an attentive server. Oysters and mussels were tasty and presented well. Flounder was cooked perfectly and the meat from the ribs fell off the bone. Delicious and good portions! Very happy.”

“If you become a member there you can get a discount on food and drink. Atmosphere was pretty chill when i went down but they do usually always have something going on weather it be a band or karaoke etc. Food was on point I had the ribeye steak with all the sides, staff were lovely. Wheelchair accessible kid friendly, they have a small timezone area out in the atrium. Be AWARE you need to be a member or with a member to drink alcohol there but anybody from the public can eat food there. Always a great go to when I need a steak meal”

“If you’re after great coffee and a huge variety of cabinet choices, this is the place to be! From sandwiches, to salads, savoury, sweet desserts etc. There is also a menu you can order from and the place is often bustling so best to book if you have a few going.”

“We booked for our daughter’s birthday dinner with a group of 9 and nothing was too much trouble. We had a lovely table with a fantastic view of the water and the staff even offered to keep our cake in the chiller until after our meal. The food was delicious and the portions were more than adequate with everyone stuffed at the end. We ordered the bao buns which had a lovely little chilli kick to them, and Korean fried chicken was an absolute favourite as was the pita with roast pepper hummus which was so delicious. We were even able to take leftovers home with us which was an added bonus! Can’t wait to come back.”

“Alicia made my visit extra special with her bubbly & friendly personality! The food was amazing & so were the margaritas (which I was blessed to be the first to try Alicia’s Magaritas!)”

“Me and my partner had a pork rib and a their signature Chicken Burger. It was absolutely delicious perfectly cooked, full of flavours, and beautifully presented. The service from Ashish was excellent. He was very friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable which made our experience even better. Definitely recommend both the dish and the great service. We will surely visit Again.”

“Went to the Cust Country Pub for dinner last night with some friends. Had a lovely time. The staff were all very welcoming, friendly and efficient. Nothing was a bother for them. The food was great, from the entrees to the desserts. I had the fish and chips which was served with yummy chips and a lovely green salad and was unfortunately more than I could eat ( and believe me I tried). I would recommend this pub to anyone who wants a reasonably priced good meal in a comfortable friendly atmosphere. Well done to the staff and management.”

“Coffee and matcha is so good!! Matcha is probably the best I’ve had!”

“Great cafe with good service and atmosphere at the University of Canterbury.”

“We got a pizza & chicken tenders to go. Very tasty.”

“We had booked a table for dinner incase it was busy there being a Saturday night, pleased we did as it was a very popular place to be. Wait staff were prompt and friendly, helpful with questions and offered great service. The food was delicious. Salt and Pepper Squid entree was excellent and my rib eye steak was cooked to perfection. Thoroughly enjoyed our night here and would definitely eat here again.”

“A welcoming café with friendly staff. The food was delicious and my coffee was perfect - yay, a place that didn't turn a flat white into a latte. Enjoyed the food and experience enough to come back again today. I recommend the chia banana bread (traditional banana bread flavour without the heaviness) and the smokey ham sandwiches are delicious.”

“Great staff and always friendly on my morning breakfast run at 3am”
