Ten27

Found this gem of an establishment by chance on Saturday through my Entertainment book & we stopped in for a coffee & a yummy roulade. Your staff were so lovely, the coffee was great & roulades very tasty. I will be back for sure & will most certainly recommend to all. I also loved the gift shop nextdoor!

I feel happy after having lunch here, fantastic food, my style. This is a convenient location, with parking in the back. It is quite busy many customers here, the decor and space are comfortable. They have seats outside and inside. They gave us free mineral water a plus point, Cleaned toilet more points. I will be back.

I'm an idiot for telling you all as it might make it more crowded, but this place is a freaking gem. Super fast wifi, comfortable furniture, "the coffee is great" and free chilled water and fizzy water. Yeah it might even be the best in Chch.

Was a good experience, however small meals, had to get a pie and custard tart, from woolston bakery on way home

Cafe Ten27 is a very pleasant, well appointed and situated establishment, frequented commonly, and understandably, by locals from the nearby Eastern and South Eastern locales surrounding Ferrymead. Parking can be contentious in the immediate area during patron peak times; although, there is extended parking access adjacent, close by, but related to other businesses. I have parked in the latter without problems for up to 90 minutes at weekends around midday and later. Personally, I do not enjoy closely patronised dining spaces, preferentially seeking to situate myself on the periphery using the externally-connected communal space. Structurally, this cafe’ is organised around pre-made dishes - although there is a formal menu, displayed ready to eat with little preparation required. There are various vegetarian and non-vegetarian options on the menu, so to speak. Given I am vegetarian, I can only speak to my experiences, although numerous, with that aspect of the menu. Everything I have chosen to date has been flavourful, well textured, well presented, and most enjoyable. I have tried the de-cafe’ but, I prefer the green tea. The regular green tea is served in a wonderfully proportioned ceramic teapot – it was wonderful. Overall, the clientele can sometimes lean towards heavy patronage on some, winter weekend days. Even so, service levels and staff attentiveness generally remains consistent and efficient. Of course, there are days when this varies, as with most establishments. The Ten27 environment, for me, is calm, relaxing, and very personable. Shared, larger spaces are available with multiple tables for small and larger groups; although, I cannot offer specific advice as to this aspect of the dining experience. Pricing varies from reasonable value to, what some may perceive as, expensive. However, comparison within the immediate locale suggests that Ten27 is in fact good value, by in large. Do note, however, my limited experience and dietary preference. Food selections on the menu suggest creative, clever and well appointed hand-made creations, produced with expertise, professionalism and a love of good, quality wholesome food. I always enjoy eating here. Usually, I sit and read for sometime post dining, enjoying the fresh air, harmonious and tranquil setting.

This is the best cafe in chch in my opinion. Very warm friendly staff. Extremely welcoming for remote laptop workers with Power outlets and free wifi. Fab coffee and a vibrant busy atmosphere. My absolute favourite in chch.
