Review Westend Stories Cafe & Eatery - Christchurch

The food here is incredible - I had the loaded chicken waffles with bacon and it was super tasty! Also tried the full Westend which was yummy. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the staff are lovely and the coffee is great. Would recommend.

Beautiful presentation, very tasty. Got dropped off in front of the restaurant from the cruise terminal. Definitely worth stopping in for breakfast

Great food, Allpress coffee and vibe. Will highly recommend 👌

Coffee is good. Lemon tart by itself is too sweet for my taste but goes well with the coffee’s bitterness. Matcha latte too milky. Fantastic service and ambiance.

Incredible, atmosphere, the food is brilliant w a bit of a twist to the run of the mill you get at cafe, highly recommend this spot wish I could go back …

Great place for brunch. Food was delicious. Coffee was great. Only negative things were that Coffee arrived after the food.

Food was delicious. The polenta fries were to absolutely die for. Service was excellent, very friendly and accommodating. I loved the look of the cafe too and good cafe music playing. Loved that you could spread out a big. Will definitely come back. Only thing that we thought was a bit weird was that the rice pudding was cold- still looked and tasted great!

Best brunch in town. Especially on the weekends when everything else this closed. Fast service and food and hot coffees!

Was looking for a place to have coffee and saw this place online. Tried the eggs bene and it was delicious with that spiced hummus topped off with a great coffee. Would definately visit again. I normally get a Vanilla Soy Latte but they dont do flavoured shots or syrups but coffee is still good.

Creative menu giving brunch a magical twist with great coffee, nothing beats this combination for a weekend morning. Ample parking off street, high chair available, disable and pram access via ramp from the side door. Friendly and attentive staff, they will tell you the code to access toilet. Huge court yard space is great for toddlers who needs a wee break during their meals. Highly recommend.

In Brief: Roomy contemporary café with excellent food matched by excellent service. The Longer Story: Located only moments away from most inner city attractions with excellent parking nearby both on-street and in the adjacent “West End” parking building. The café is within the ground floor of a brand new building so everything is new and shiny. The décor uses soothing earthy tones and is modern. The café is quite large indoors and offers a range of seating from smaller 2-4 person tables, to larger round tables, to taller “leaner” type ones to breakfast bar type seating. There’s outdoor seating in the plaza of the newly developed complex and additionally indoors there’s a lobby/foyer/atrium area with intimate low height coffee table seating also available… in all, this is a truly amazing range of options for small or large groups. The café is open at 7am which is fantastic and there has already been discussion within my workplace team about choosing this venue when we next have reason for a team/group breakfast. Upon entering I was welcomed and the great level of customer service and attendance was maintained. The menu is contemporary and modern and prices appear comparable to similarly styled venues. I would actually go so far as to suggest, given the pricing, there’s a little bit of an extra zing/spark/flair to their menu when comparing to others. For example (looking at the menu as I type) items such as “truffle hollandaise” or “whipped feta” are mouth-watering to read! As I expected (knowing the owners pedigree with “Dose Diner” and “Everyday Dose”) the coffee is superb. A nice bean indeed. The overall impression is that Westend Stories is owned and operated by people with a genuine passion for what they do and they’ve hired staff who share that passion.

Beautiful cafe with lush greenery and amazing food! The staff are friendly and it is now one of my new top spots in Christchurch! I highly recommend Westend Stories.
