Food Scene
The best pizza's in Christchurch by a long way. Nice atmosphere, but can get a bit "lively" at peak times.
There are other dining options beside it if pizza is not your thing.

Great atmosphere, with their own beers on tap. There's occasionally live music there, and it's always warm and welcoming.

Parks & Nature
With easy walkways through a wide range of trees and flowers, interspersed with lakes and bridges, it's the ideal place for a summers day stroll. The new cafe by the Hagley park end is the perfect place to relax after taking in all the garden have to offer.

Shopping
Although very small in size, it's become huge in popularity! The Tannery has been a great boost to our neighbourhood. Check out the many boutique shops, dining or cafe options in this complex. There's even a twin movie theatre if you want a quieter night.
It's even worthwhile to just go and admire the wonderful architecture of this once industrial building.
