Cafe & Coffee Shop & Pub in New Zealand

“The food was delicious. I had hare and my wife had fillet steak. The service was great. Ryan and the other waiter were very helpful, attentive and polite - great service! This is our second time at this restaurant and we will be back again and have already recommended to friends.”

“Service was great, emailed stationery list to them , fast response to email and order was ready that afternoon to collect. Checkout staff were also friendly and helpful. Will definitely do school stationery shop through these guys again. Thanks”

“THIS bar is has come along way and is now bit of a hidden gem in Hornby. The rustic look of the bar and its layout is great. Also the prices are very, very welcoming. Makes you want to stay longer. Has a pool table too and plenty of space. Their seafood basket is too die for too. You won't be sorry visiting here!”

“They have the regular bubble/iced teas on the menu, but they have a good selection of loose leaf tea for sale as well. I picked up a box of gaba oolong which I've only ever seen on taiwan-based online stores (usually very expensive), very reasonably priced as well.”

“Great little pub. My local. Great happy hour, nice food, delicious roast meals”

“An absolutely brilliant experience, so laid back. It was Easter Saturday when I went. Very quiet. A lot of love has gone into the place particularly outside. Has potential to make it more of a cafe atmosphere inside, too, with cafe at the front and pub at the back. It's a good fitting name to reflect that in the past a lot of wheat was grown in the area. This area is going to really boom and become a desirable place to live and raise children.”

“Thanks to the Friendly happy staff who kindly organized our takeaway dinner the meal was soo good ! we now have a roast club going for a thursday haha !! Best $15 roast around , was delicious thank you !! See you next week !”

“Came here for a birthday experience and it more than excelled, had a blast. Would highly recommend this place to all my friends!!!!!”

“We have been searching for some “chipper chips” like back home in Ireland for a long time as we have been away for 7 years, this is the closest we’ve got between here and Australia! The best old school homemade chips, cooked perfectly in clean oil. We loved them so much, we got 3 bags in one day!!”

“Went here for a friends birthday dinner and it exceeded expectations! Fabulous service from Georgia and Molly, and even better food! Drinks were lovely and will definitely be coming back!”

“Speights went out of their way to make a triple birthday dinner super special for my sons. They allowed us to go in earlier and set up decorations and put the 3 cakes in the chiller. They supplied little plates and napkins for them to be served on after dinner Although there was close to 30 people eating the waitress had it all under control and the meals came to the table quickly and all the meals were delicious, with generous sizes.”

“Great store and staff here. Sad to hear that it's being closed down.”

“My hubby and I really enjoyed our delicious entree and mains this evening. My calamari was so tender and the beef cheeks were deliciously melt in the mouth. So great to have this lovely restaurant in our neighbourhood. We will be back.”

“We stumbled across this place looking for a meal. It didn't disappoint. The food was truly amazing with a delicious green curry and chicken fried rice. To top off the evening we also had a live duo playing music and singing songs we all enjoyed. Great place great service great atmosphere.”

“5 stars purely for the new york brownie alone bc it’s so damn delicious and addictive. it does get a bit loud and the coffee isn’t the best on campus, but it’s the one cafe i always go back to for the cheap toasties and ofc the brownie.”

“Went on a Saturday evening about 7pm, was somewhat quiet. Staff were friendly and table cleared of empty plates fairly quickly. Food was delicious, and the coffee/hot chocolate drinks were very flavoursome and at a decent temperature.”

“A good bakery has NO food at the end of the day, good food, friendly staff and a real busy bakery. A great place to grab a feed on the run or sit down and relax. Yes this place gets frantically busy, but 4 cashier places helps move you along. But relax and select well or try something knew.”

“I love the new apple elixir drink. And the spinach and cream cheese savory scroll. Friendly staff too.”

“Amazing food. And an even better coffee. Would definitely come here for coffee and food and day. The Chicken and Brie sandwich was delicious. Can't fault at all. Parking around the back which ideal for Christchurch. On a busy road so can be a little loud with traffic otherwise it's a 5 star place”

“Good coffee, would come back if I’m in the area”

“The Famous Grouse Hotel NZ offers comfortable rooms, friendly staff, lively bar, convenient location, and good value, though breakfast options are limited.”

“We loved it! Dutch pancakes so yummy. Coffee delicious and staff super friendly. Great atmosphere. And we can bring our little dog. Nice outdoor seating. We will make this Cafe our regular Saturday breakfast place!”

“I love Dusk! My friend and I come once a week for their incredible pizza, glass of wine and a catch up. The food, service and views are always 10/10. A true local hidden gem.”

“Friendly staff, a good selection of food and drink. A great place to meet up!”

“I come in to Columbus Coffee Ferrymead with my daughter usually once a fortnight sometimes bringing in other family or friends to have a meal. Been coming here for a over a year. The staff are very friendly and happy towards us. The meals are yummy and even more delicious now under the new owners/chef. Love the dairy free frappe's. Have also come here to have meals for our birthday's and anniversaries. We definitely feel welcomed here and will continue coming back.”

“Great bakery, plenty of options of good food and cakes. Friendly service. Parking from 10am onward can be really tight due to popularity of café. Great for catering for big morning teas.”

“Played my first round of golf in New Zealand here. The course was in good shape. I birdied the first hole and knew then and there that the course was gonna win that day. I know better than to birdie #1. All in all, I'd recommend it to anyone. I know I'll be back the next time I come here.”

“Delicious food, great for kids or adults. Lots of nice fresh salads. Salsas are really good too. Friendly staff.”

“An absolute must-visit! The food is simply superb, with standout dishes like the lamb shank, tender and full of rich flavor, the perfectly crisp squid, and the irresistibly crispy pork bites. Every bite is a delight!”

“Good experience and quality yummy fresh food. Nelly, the waitress, provided wonderful service and recommended dishes that exceeded our expectations! Everything is beautiful and will definitely go back again with friends.”
