Google lists: dine-in · delivery · takeaway. > Great food options. Staff was nice. However we did get a parking ticket even though my husband was in the car the whole time the rest of us were getting food., Karen Kondapalli, 3 months ago > The vibe here is amazing! It was our very first meal after landing in New Zealand. We got Thai food and burgers. I have to say, the Thai food was incredibly good—we ate it so fast we forgot to take pictures!, Rungroj Win Eurvivatsakul, 4 months ago > 30 sept / 1 Oct 2025 El fogon grill is nice. Ordered the rump and also platter. Good portion. I haven’t tried Leek with mash before so it’s smtg new and I like it. Noodle monk (Thai food) is also good. We ask for authentic Tomyum soup and they accommodated. Next day, we tried their green curry salmon, lamb shank curry(new item) as well as beef pad kaprao. Beef pad ka prao is something different cause it’s usually pork. It’s nice though! We took the Hot flavor. We did inform the staff again that we don’t want the flavours here (sweeter side), we want something spicy that is similar to Thailan, My Two Cents, a year ago ## Doors - [What stood on this ground](https://www.chch.live/before?lat=-43.5357895&lon=172.6409743) - [On the map](https://www.chch.live/map#-43.5357895,172.6409743,17) - [Documents that name it](https://www.chch.live/documents?q=Little%20High%20Eatery) - [Christchurch Central City](https://www.chch.live/christchurch-central-city), the suburb - [The OSM record](https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/493564399), fix it there ## Questions, answered briefly **What is Little High Eatery?** A food court in Christchurch Central City, Christchurch. **Where is Little High Eatery?** 255 High Street, Christchurch Central City, on [High Street](https://www.chch.live/street/christchurch-central-city/high-street).
