The cafe landscape in Christchurch transformed a great deal in 2011. What at one time existed as a defined city centre with cafes, eateries and stores, now Christchurch has witnessed its cafes spread throughout the metropolis appealing to residents and visitors to almost all areas in the city. This is certainly just the thing for the suburbanisation of Christchurch as much locations had been without established sections of local independently owned stores and cafes. Visitors and locals are still spoiled for choice with regards to figuring out where to eat.

The Herb Centre; This tranquil place consists of a sweet corner cafe that serves primarily vegetarian treats (you can find just one single meat-eating option in the selection…) in addition to brews the New Zealand Coffee Awards 2009-10 Gold Award winning, New Brighton-based Switch Espresso.
