Top 30 Best Restaurant in Christchurch

“Third time there. Always excellent. Great atmosphere and interesting tapas style food. Cosy logburner... What's not to like?”

“We had amazing stay at The Pier Lodge. The beds were comfortable and we had our own shower toliet which were very clean. Excellent parking. Breakfast was included in the lovely dining room. The Pier Lodge is in walking distance to the wonderful beach that we walked each morning with the new hot pools that look over the beach. Amazing place to stay I know where we will be staying next time we are down in Christchurch. Thank you Val for everything. From Maggie and Heather.”

“Loop musician was the highlight on the Sat night I attended. If there was no food or drinks, I would consider going for that alone. Off the charts good. Thay said, it is exactly what you would expect for where and what it is. Staff and food did not disappoint. Would definitely go back and recommend it to others. If you are too uptight and expect fast service, go to micky d"s, but if you want to take in the ambiance of the historical building and location with locals, I can't imagine a better way to spend a Saturday night in Lyttleton. It was an experience to remember for those who are not pretentious and like to mingle with the locals.”
