> Definitely one of the best brunch cafés I’ve been to in Christchurch. I ordered the steak brunch and was pleasantly surprised to find they use West Meat fillet steak. The quality of the beef was excellent—perfectly cooked, incredibly tender, and full of flavour. You can really tell they don’t compromise on ingredients. The coffee was equally impressive. Rich, smooth, and beautifully balanced, with excellent latte art. The barista clearly knows what they’re doing, and the level of professionalism really stands out. Friendly service, generous portions, and a warm atmosphere made the whole exp, Harry, 2 months ago
> Although it’s located in the city, this place has an antique charm and a cozy, beautiful garden atmosphere. The friendly guidance from the staff was very impressive. I highly recommend the halloumi open sandwich — it perfectly balances sweetness, saltiness, and a slight freshness, and you can really feel the chef’s care and effort in the dish. It was a flawless brunch, and I would love to visit again soon. But it depends on the chef's condition that day. Today was not good😓, YJ, 6 months ago
> Absolutely obsessed with this cafe The food is next level their steak sandwich is hands down the best I’ve ever had, and it looks amazing too! We also got the kimchi omelette and it was so fluffy and full of flavour, absolutely delicious. The vibe here is so fun and lively, especially sitting out in the garden with the breeze such a nice spot! Service was awesome as well, the owner and all the staff are super friendly and lovely. 10/10, will definitely be back again and again!, Liwei Zhang, 7 months ago
