“Great service great food. For $13 my tray was full. Have also tried the blue cod with chips and recommend this place for your standard fish n chip stop.”

“We are regular visitors to the restaurant and it absolutely lives up to the hype! From start to finish, the experience is always fantastic. The restaurant itself is warm and inviting, with a lovely, authentic atmosphere. The flavors are so fresh, vibrant, and perfectly balanced. The food is rich and creamy with just the right amount of spice, and traditional Thai dishes are tangy, sweet, and packed with flavor. The service is always top-notch. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. Portion sizes are very generous, offering great value for money. Without a doubt, this is the best Thai food in North Canterbury. We can't wait to come back and work our way through the rest of the menu. Highly, highly recommend! A must-visit!”

“Outstanding customer service, friendly, staff followed through with my complicated order. Then to our surprise we were overwhelmed with the attention to detail.

Coming from Christchurch for the short drive was well worth it. You won’t be disappointed!”

“How easy is it to have a function at “Paris for the Weekend”? Very easy, select your menu and relax! My group of 26 family and friends gathered for French High Tea recently and while some would have liked more of the sandwiches and savouries, the food that was presented was very well received. Although the very large scones detracted from the dainty smaller pieces. We were hosted by Cat and she provided first class service and attention. Nothing was a bother. She was very friendly and efficient and delightful to work with. Thank you Cat. Certainly would recommend “Paris for the Weekend”, whether it be just for a coffee or a group function. Thank you for having us.”

Would be good if they increased their range of light wines. Very competitive in pricing and often undercuts supermarkets for beer. Close with wine.”

Great touch with the branded burger buns. Only slight improvement would be for the Jameson jeus as it had no flavour at all, but a super easy fix”
