I love going to Portstone Garden Centre because there is everything there that makes a visit worthwhile. We thoroughly enjoy the café, great food and friendly staff. I always find something if not a lot of plants to purchase, and then there is a great shop to explore. The 'staff'' all super friendly and helpful. I would recommend this garden centre to everyone.
Whoever made my mocha this morning was on point. Not easy to find good coffee round here. Milk was the perfect temp, and nice ratio of choc and shot. Friendly service. Thanks!! � �
Clean, pleasant, with an appetising selection of counter food. Apparently there is a menu, but I didn't see it. Automatic door and ramp make wheelchair access easy, though the tables inside are the kind with pedestal legs that make getting comfortably close to the table in a wheelchair difficult--weather permitting, next time I'd eat outside at one of the more traditional tables there. The outside space has water features and various other garden objects on display. Coffee was coffee (what can I say, we're not connoisseurs). Would happily return.
Always heard good things about this little cafe.
Service on the day was good although a lot of social chatter behind the counter whilst we were waiting to be served.
Coffees were up to standard. No spillage.
Wide selection of food and a menu (wasn't aware of the menu until we had sat down)
Ordered from the cabinet. I had a lasagne, which was heavy on the carrot - but still delicious. Good value for money. It would have been elevated to the next level if it came with a side salad.
My friend had the stuff kumara which also was presented well and it came with a side salad.
All in all enjoyable.
Clean and tidy..
Staff were friendly.
All up $30 for two meals and three drinks.
Beautiful plants. On a wet day we'll worth a walk around undercover. Lots to choose from gifts, pots, plants, water features and a lovely cafe. Helpful cheerful staff. Competitive pricing. Opportunities to get the plant in that you are wanting....

Love visiting here. There are always new plants or other things to see in the shop. When you are done you can visit the wonderful Cafe on site.
They have everything you may ever need for landscaping , even hire out a landscaper. The plants are of high quality and very healthy . So many water features and compared with other garden centres, reasonably priced . We are travelling around NZ for 1yr in our motorhome and allways stop for a walk around at the garden centres, love it . Large cafe indoor and outdoor seating clean toilets. A large car park and some parking on the road side.
Love this place. Beautiful plants and in the store itself hard to just walk past all the gorgeous giftware. When you are done visit the cafe, but it might pay to reserve a table as they are very popular
Great place. Lots of plants and pots to choose and cheaper than other shops. Love the coffee shop too with the garden view.
Needed some hard to find plants which they had in stock, quick reply to email asking for information on the items required.
Very impressed great helpful staff larger than I had imagined with large comprehensive range of gardening supplies and plants. Also, a cafe on site sadly didn't have time to check out - Cheers
My favorite garden center in Christchurch. I was very happy to finally obtain a Slipper Orchid. Supports local growers and wide variety. Very helpful staff!
What a great find! Great service - friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. A great selection of plants and pots. A lovely cafe inside, too.
Amazing service and such a beautiful garden centre with everything you could possibly need!
I wanted to buy a number of large pots to establish a herb garden and Leigh was fantastic. She curated a selection of large pots and sent me photos and pricing to make a selection. I live a long way away and on my next trip to ChCh I took my trailer and picked up my purchases. Very pleased with the quality and pricing, I was able to get exactly what I was looking for and order some grape vines and decorative trees for Spring.
