Went there for the first time yesterday with two of my friends, we had a lovely time. Great customer service and really delicious food! Thank you Drexel's for an overall good experience!! :)
Friendly service. I had the toasties and it was delicious. My sister had the pancakes and she liked it too. Place is clean and workers were nice. There is a wait on your order tho so good to be with someone to kill time. Lol
If you landing in Christchurch early morning like 7am.go to this place without second thoughts.A great bf restaurant with bottomless coffee (unlimited filter coffee). Food potions are satisfying with good taste.
Always love going here for a brunch! Bit on the pricey side, but you honestly pay for quality!! The house made hash browns are amazing and the waffles are so crispy on the outside but nice and fluffy in the middle! If only it was easier to get bookings here :( would recommend this place to ANYONE!!
I have been visiting Drexels as regularly as I am able since I was young and it never fails to impress. We arrived half an hour early, yet we were seated within 5 minutes and the rest of the staff we encountered were as attentive and friendly as the lady who seated us. The food was incredible; the waffles were are the best I have ever had and they were the highlight of the meal, closely followed by the hash brown and poached eggs which go perfectly together. It is a little on the pricer side but as it was a special occasion, absolutely worth every cent.
One of the best breakfast place I’ve been to. Good for special occasions, as it is a little expensive. I got what I ordered and met my expectations. The staffs were nice and very helpful.
Great food and lovely staff. We go here all the time for breakfast or brunch. The pancakes are amazing and should definitely not be missed..
Brilliant for a sneeky Brunch adventure!
I recommend having the pancakes or waffles.
I've had the pleasure of going to Drexels on a couple occasions and it was brilliant on both visits!
I always come here often as humanly possible never been disappointed by the service or the food been one mix up out of the fifteen times I've been which is a good ratio they fixed the issue easy as well I'd definitely recommend it's a little packed book in advance is my advice they make the most with there space and wouldn't hold that against them as it's always busy but 10/10 all around
BOOK IN ADVANCED! Drexel's deserves its names as its known to be CHCH's Breakfast restaurant. I personally hate eating breakfast but Drexel offers so much variety that still categorises itself as a breakfast meal, such as the breakfast burrito, my personal fave, topped with guacamole, pulled chicken, cheese and a dollop of sour cream. The complementary free toast adds extra brownie points as Drexel's always goes the extra mile, regardless of how busy it is. The great service and friendly staff always ensure there is something to snack or drink thanks to the 'bottomless drinks' which why can drink as much as you want for a small price. The eggs Benedict is an obvious fav as well as the homemade hash browns. The welcoming atmosphere and modern scenery will continue to get me up in the morning, only for Drexel's
Had a great birthday brunch ... table of 5 .. 2x kids and 3x adults .... the prices match the plate. I ordered waffles, they were huge and delicious. I ordered over easy eggs on toast as a side which were surprisingly good 🙂... kids had huge hash browns and they ate it all! Plus waffles .... other friend ordered the farmers plate.... huge and delicious plate of food .... she took half home ... totally recommend this restaurant for good filling food appropriately priced ...
Drexel's is an old favourite of ours. It caters for the family so it was great having our two young grandchildren with us. It has a relaxed atmosphere and very tasty food. At first the service was a bit slow but then it picked up and we felt well- looked after.
Amazing place! Wish I would have taken the avocado toast instead of crepes
A great spot for breakfast and brunch - knew it had to be pretty good from the crazy number of people there. We visited twice while in Christchurch for the weekend and never booked but were able to get a table with just 2-minute and 15-minute waits. Our fav was the Mediterranean omelette and juices were great too. The waffle was a little doughy for our liking. Great service - if we’re back in Christchurch again visiting here will definitely be on the to-do list.
Best breakfast since 1986. They lose 1 star for the change in their french toast, however food is glorious and always a treat to visit (live out of chch now). Still exceptional value.
I have come to Drexel's for family breakfasts ever since I was little. Now that I'm first year polytech, I still love coming with my loved ones. The pricing is reasonable and it's really easy to build a meal. I got an almond milk hot chocolate, and one piece of French toast with a side of a hash brown which were lovely and would definitely recommend. It was easy and efficient to book online, so would DEFINITELY recommend booking ahead. I've always had great experiences coming to Drexel's and cannot wait to come again in the future. Thank you for the lovely brunch!! :-)
Very popular place and food that is just great. Had the omelet and egg and toast for my daughter. Food was very filling and delicious.
Friendly services; I had the coffee, orange juice and Drexel special with pancake; food is good and big portion;
A far different and better experience than last time. We were served fast, prompt and the food was HUGE. The pancakes were perfection and the blueberries and cream were generously given. The coffee was endless for $4.80 and someone always offered to top up. I took my pancakes home because the regular stack was a giant amount. My daughter got the kids platter and the waffle and hotcake were both golden and soft inside, deliciously crispy outside. Selection of fruit and cream plus only 2.00 for an extra (a poached egg) she was most pleased. 10/10 Staff location and food all amazing
Delicious food 🤤👌🏾 amazing service and our favourite family Sunday brekky stop. Highly recommended ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
