Good coffee, a little bitter which is just the way I needed it this morning. The milk was so silky. Staceys stack was so good. Perfectly poached egg, delicious potato layer bake thingo, plus the greens.. can’t wait to come back. Good vibes here too ✌️
This place feels a little tucked away but it's worth the stretch of the legs to discover this beautiful cheery cafe. The staff are friendly, quick to clear tables and keep the place looking welcoming. Although busy when I arrived it took no time for the coffee to turn up and with good upbeat background music, vibrant feel and lots of seating options this is the place to enjoy a good cup of Joe.
Our last morning in Christchurch and it’s time for breakfast. We didn’t have a car so a good 2km walk to start the morning to get to the cafe and it was certainly worth the walk.
The cafe has an awesome warmth to it when entering and this continues with all the “nick naks” in the tables, yes the tables have glass tops full of treasures.
The staff in the kitchen warmly welcomed us and our waitress (little cold) showed us to our table. Coffee and food ordered quickly, walk had made us hungry.
I went for a classic smashed avo on toast yet it had a pleasant twist, avo had chilli and onion added which was nicer then I expected. Toast and bacon were also both great. Have to compliment the barista, a most excellent flat white (and two shots ;-)...
Give this cafe a try when you in Christchurch you will come away satisfied.

I was on a vacation at Christchurch. I managed to Google this place and decided to give it a try. Tried on some of the coffees and hot chocolate drinks which was really good. The big breakfast was really yummy too and it manage to keep both my partner and myself full. P.S we shared a platter 😅🤣
Always love coming here even if it’s for a quick bite or brunch. It’s a shame it’s always so busy, must mean it’s very popular!! The only downside that I would say is that the prices can be a bit on the expensive side... but you do pay for quality!!
Group of 6. 2x French toast crumpets 5/5 epic! Avo smash (yes in July) looked beautiful3/5 bland and spiceless. Big breakfast 3/5 tasteless and egg soldiers 4/5 they were fine. Eggs benny 3.5/5 nice but nothing special. Smoothies were great. Easy to get a table, staff were friendly and helpful. Difficult to park near. Clean and tidy. Interesting tables you can add to with your own comments.
We went on a Tuesday morning and it was already quite busy. The staff were very friendly. I ordered Stacey's Stack. It was very good, some of the best food I've had in Christchurch.
The food came out quite fast, about 10 minutes after ordering. I'll definitely be returning.
Great service. Everyone is so nice. Had their cappuccino, latte, Mexican breakfast fish and the veggie big dish. The Mexican breakfast was amazing. Especially their chipotle cream sauce which I mixed into their veggie big breakfast. But the service here alone would bring me back!
Had eggs benedict, was delicious. Coffee was fab, staff were so helpful and friendly. Would definitely go back, building and interior was really cool.
Fab food and atmosphere and super friendly helpful staff! Pro tip: try the caramel slice, it's to die for! Thanks for a great late lunch! :)
Visiting from the US. This place was delicious and unique. Order at the counter, find a table and food brought to you. Employees are friendly and answered any questions we had.
Ordered following
Beef brisket - such great subtle flavors.
All the Goods Stacy's Stack - great combinations of tasty.
Beef brisket with the eggs was a very nice combo. My partner enjoyed this alot.
Unfortunately we are very fussy with our coffee and it was just a bit acidic this morning.
Atmosphere was beautiful. We would definitely find ourselves back there for the food.
They had so many food options!! The eggs Benedict is probably the best i’ve had in Christchurch so far! I appreciate when a cafe makes good hollandaise. The food was so beautiful I couldn’t resist taking pictures of everything haha. They no longer sell pancakes which was disappointing so my friend got the waffles, the toppings were overwhelming. The mouse is made with Whittaker’s chocolate so it tasted so good. They were selling a bunch of non-food items too, including flavoured shots for homemade hot drinks.
Hands down the best eggs benny I’ve ever had. The dairy free eggs benny on potatoes is a must try. Best breaky in Christchurch
Nice spot with a delicious chorizo melt today I was thoroughly impressed by. I needed to grab a bite and get some work done for a few hours so it was nice they had free wifi. Thanks!
Came here twice when we visited Christchurch for 3 days, both times for lunch. Really enjoyed the buttermilk pancakes, it's not often the pancake stack itself is as exciting as their toppings! Their granola mix with fruits and coconut yoghurt was beautifully presented and moorish. Both my visits I ordered the hot spiced blackcurrant, it's a cup of comfort during the cold weather.
Look out for the spicy cheese scrolls that are located ontop of their food cabinet. We got one to go after our first visit and came back for more, but unfortunately missed out. They get snapped up quick!
Relaxed atmosphere, quirky and spacious interior.
Don’t be fooled by the unassuming frontage of this funky cafe! Once you step inside you are greeted with energetic staff, a large inviting rustic space, delicious smells & a cabinet full of treats! Service was fast, efficient & attentive despite being fairly busy. Delicious coffee & garlic twist was had by me & I’d definitely go back to try something from the extensive menu & spend some more time in this fun space.
The GF muffin I had was so moist and yum. Tasted similar go tea cake. The smoothie was very yum that I got with it. Recommend!
Fast and great service :) iced coffee was served in 2min and the eggs bene was made faster than mc Donalds 😆 just lovely lovely lovely
Fantastic coffee and excellent breakfast. Corn fritters were fabulous, super fresh, soft and fluffy on the inside but crunchy on the outside. Service was very prompt and polite.
Got busy pretty fast but food came out surprisingly quickly! Gutted to have not got something from the cabinet though.
Definitely one of the best breakfasts in Christchurch, better than many of the other offerings in the central city.
