Finding a Cafe in Christchurch
It's hard to know where to get a good coffee and a bite to eat when you've got limited time in a city. Of course there are always the franchises you already know, like Starbucks and McDonalds. But when you want to taste the flavour of more than just coffee, you look for a unique and memorable cafe experience with local flair.
Christchurch city and the surrounding area boast a range of great cafes, each with their own distinctive style.
In central Christchurch, the cafe trail takes you from Cathedral Square through the city's main shopping outlets and attractions. Art and heritage enthusiasts will follow Worcester Boulevard over the Avon river to the Christchurch Arts Centre, and recharge at a cafe like The Coffee House Cafe & Restaurant, or Le Cafe.
Close by is the Christchurch Art Gallery, where you can relax with a drink at Alchemy. Fashion lovers will head for High street and choose between high class and hip at Mondo, The Globe, or C1.
If you've got time, take your hire car for a spin and enjoy the garden at Under The Red Verandah (also known as UTRV) in Linwood or at Terra Viva near Christchurch International Airport. Follow up a walk on the Port Hills with a coffee from Cup or from The Sign of the Kiwi, looking out over Christchurch and the Canterbury Plains.
Christchurch offers shopping, heritage, art, fashion, the great outdoors - and a great cup of coffee!
