> My friend and I visited Affogato this morning and were very impressed. We had a warm and friendly welcome from the café team. We had the chorizo and bacon smash and the eggs benedict with salmon. Both were so tasty and cooked to perfection. The salmon on the eggs benedict was very fresh and were decent size chunks instead of the tiny thin slices we're used to in the UK. The chorizo and bacon were plentiful too. The coffee was good and the tea I had was the best I've had during my NZ trip so far! The only downside was that I was too full to fit in one of their delicious looking cakes! Give this, Tara Morrison, 6 months ago
> This is a fantastic and lovely café in Christchurch. I absolutely loved my experience at Affogato Café. I had one of the best creamy mushrooms I’ve ever had in my life. Since this dish is one of my favourites and something I order often, I feel confident judging it , and this one was flawless. It was flavourful, hot, and simply incredible. The presentation was impeccable, served on an iron plate that kept the dish warm and delicious for much longer. I also had an Americano, which was equally enjoyable. The staff are very friendly and kind, making you feel happy, welcomed, and energised for the, Filipe Alves da Silva, 8 months ago
> The shop is located on a busy corner with a decent size and a pleasant atmosphere—it’s the kind of place where you could easily lose track of time over a cup of coffee. ​I ordered the Avocado Smash. A generous portion of avocado was piled onto a slice of bread, making for a very delicate presentation. The poached egg on top was perfectly cooked, and the smash paired exceptionally well with the balsamic glaze! The creamy texture combined with the sweet and tangy glaze was absolutely delicious. Finishing it off with the side salad provided a very refreshing touch. My only complaint? For someone, Angus Steak, 5 months ago
