Welcome back to Christchurch! In this vlog we can show off a bit of what makes Christchurch so cool - the eateries, restaurants, markets, cafes, bars and walking streets.
The Riverside Markets is one of the go to hubs in town, there's a huge selection of places to eat, drink and shop along with a few more specific restaurants as well. There's a collection of tables to sit and eat at after, so everyone can grab food from anywhere together.
Miro cafe was our breakfast spot and although we only tried one thing (the nicest of the day possibly!) the rest of the menu sounded great. As far as Christchurch cafes go, this was easily the most highly recommended.
Little High Eatery is another cool spot with some great restaurants and grab and go food as well. It's worth noting our friends ate ramen at the same spot, but picked a different one on the menu, and they loved it. So maybe I got unlucky, maybe they ran out of the right noodles, maybe that one's always a bit crap, but what evs. Great spot and the dumplings were fire!
Last up was the Pink Lady Rooftop Bar on top of the Muse Art Hotel. This was apparently the cool new kid on the block in Christchurch and it lived up to the hype (not always the case). Great cocktails, food and epic views as well.
And that was some of the best restaurants, cafes, bars and eateries in Christchurch - a city we really like and is totally worth checking out for any New Zealand travels.
Season 2 of Reveal NZ is a 20+ part video series showcasing the best things to do, see and experience in the Upper South Island. We're visiting Nelson, Tasman, Marlborough, Kaikoura, Hanmer Springs, Christchurch and more! We'll be going full vanlife for a portion of the trip in a top of the line motorhome as well, walking some of New Zealand's best tracks and checking out some incredible accommodation as well.

So many nice places to eat at The Market Place and you had lollies lol
Umm don't hate on lollies! We were pacing ourselves
I lived in Christchurch many years ago (I live in the UK now) and my first ever memory was feeding the ducks on the Avon. So glad Christchurch has come back strong from tragedy. What a beautiful city!
Aw we're so happy we could take you along on a walk down memory lane! The rebuild is incredible, the city has come back to life!
Holy Hell you two! This was an awesome episode. The production values were top notch and the acting superb!!!🤣😆👍🏻. Ok ok, it wasn't acting, l know that, but you do have seriously good production skills. Your camera work and editing is beyond excellent in this episode. Your work seems to have a great sense of pace, content and timing. Can't think of anyone doing it better!
Thank you so much - Danes too humble to take all the credit but he's the one in charge of all of that! He'll be stoked to read this 😊
Thank you for a beautiful video, guys! Hugs and much love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱🤗❤💙
Aw you're most welcome, sending love back your way!
Christchurch looks amazing! We have decided we need to fly over when we can (from sydney) for a foodie long weekend lol
That's such a great idea! Now you know all the places to go!
Christchurch looks great to eat at and I don't know why but other places than where you live always look like they have better food or maybe NZ just knows how to do it. Thanks for the video & keep safe
That's a good point! Although to be fair, NZ does know good food 🙌
You guys keep making me hungry with these food vlogs! I am a dim sum lover and those dumplings with chili sauce looked to die for! And I love your honesty when you try something not good.. can't wait to see you enjoy an epic bowl of ramen when you make it to Japan! So cool to see the variety of options in Christchurch. 😎
Those dumplings were insanely good! We seriously can't wait for a trip to Japan! Fingers crossed we can visit soon.
Raman ria at the riverside market has really yummy Raman should definitely try this place
Definitely down to try a better Ramen place next time, thanks for the tip!
I couldn't stop smiling all the way through love what you guys do.
Aww thats SO cute! Wish you could've come with us!
So lovely to see the rebuild, I was in Christchurch 9 years ago and there was still a huge exclusion zone so you couldn’t get anywhere near the centre, so awful to see. Glad it looks like they’ve made a great recovery!
Oh that would've been really sad to see. The city looks and feels amazing now (to us tourists anyway!)
Always waiting for your new video guys! You both just ❤️
New vlog went up last night, hope you enjoyed that one too ❤️
@@DanegerAndStacey oh yes! That was superb specially that white duck 🦢 :) your new friend!!
As soon as you guys said about the caff and cafe, I knew exactly which one was going to be the terrible one 🤣 The riverside market looks so nice. We have our own versions of this, but horrible shiping containers - Christchurch's looked gorgeous!!! ❤️
😂 Caf just sounds bad doesn't it!
@Daneger and Stacey 🤣 SO bad!!
Funny you say shipping containers, the riverside market used to be a container mall! Full of shipping containers repurposed as shops. It was really cool! But the markets are definitely better 🤞
@@anaedwards6451 Ooooh it's like there was a 6th sense there when I brought up shipping containers, lol!
I do like what they're doing rejuvenating Christchurch too. We ended up eating at, well, you wouldn't call them food trucks - they were renovated small containers shaped into a horseshoe with greenery and seats in the middle. Very cool.
Ahh yes we know exactly what you mean, the container ship mall, we went there are few years back! Loved it!
I just moved to Christchurch from my home town Auckland and I’m sooo happy I found this coz I’m starting from scratch down here 💕💕
That's so exciting! Hope you're enjoying the change from Auckland (yay for less traffic haha) Glad you found this video - make sure you check out the latest vid we just uploaded too for some day trip ideas!
Wow I really love the delicious foods and I am looking forward to going to Christchurch! Really love it!💝❤️
No doubt you will love it! One of our fave places :)
Love Christchurch! It has such a wonderful vibe to it. Thanks for sharing
Absolutely love Staceys outfit in this video (as always)
We do too! It's such an awesome place, especially seeing it after the rebuild! Aw thank you, appreciate that 😊
😍😍😍😍 I feel so bad that I haven't been to 90% of these places, you make Christchurch look so cool!
Whaaaat! You need to do a DIY food tour asap! 🤗
Was last back in C Church in 2017 and it seems to have progressed even further, so good to see! I now live in the UK, but was there also a year before the big quake and to be honest, it was heartbreaking to see the damage, but, still had an amazing time.
NZ is a really amazing, beautiful country, and you showcase it so well.
Many thanks again for your videos :-)
So heartbreaking to see the damage but they have done such a great job with the rebuild (from a tourist perspective anyway) Sounds like it's definitely worth coming back for another visit someday :)
I’m here for you guys doing a full week food tour!! Anywhere you want to go, and just eating your way around, maybe that could be your next road trip? Eating around New Zealand 😂 loved this one as per! The food looked so good!
We're seriously considering this idea! 😂
thanks for a great tour, I've now seen some great places in my city I didn't know existed.I'm now hungry and will have to go there and sample some great eats! well done by a delightful couple and cheers for sharing.
So glad we could introduce you to some new places! Hope you like them as much as we did. Happy eating 😊
we're suckers for a good food tour! especially when they include so many wonderful sweets!
Yessss! A good food tour has to have the right balance of sweet & savoury for sure :)
Christchurch is getting better and better, love it. Also love your video, great work guys 😊
It's such an awesome city, the rebuild is amazing! Thanks James!
@@DanegerAndStacey your welcome. Myself and wife Francesca actually own Miro and just wanted to say thankyou for your lovely review.
your vlogs make me sooo happyyyyy
This comment makes US soooo happy! Thank you 🤗
Brings back great memories live in Aberdeen, Scotland and lived there last year for 6 months it is an awesome place and highly reccomend
Glad you enjoyed it Scotland is amazing huh?
I feel rewarded for staying up late PST when I see a notification for your latest video. 🤗
You're awesome! Thanks for staying up late to hang out with us!
I discovered your channel about a week ago, I'm so glad you did one on my city!
Yaaay! Hope you hit that subscribe button so you can come on more adventures with us in the future 😉
Oh I’ve been waiting for this
Hope you enjoyed it!
Lucky i was watching this and eating my lunch. The new Chrischurch is so fascinating . We hope to visit again one day.
Haha great call watching a food vlog while eating!
@@DanegerAndStacey I don't like drooling lol
Will have to add these places to my list for my upcoming trip! 🤤
You won't regret it, sooooo delish!
Looks like there are some really cool places in Christchurch- I have to say that rooftop bar, and the food there did look so good! That chicken batter looked perfect!😋
The Pink Lady rooftop bar was definitely a winner! The chicken was delicious :)
10 min looked like the old Chch Polytechnic ?? Alot of good memories there , no wonder still there.
Another fun food and drink video, 🥘🍹🍺Thanks guys 🧑👩stay safe and have fun. 🧔
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks (as always) for watching 😊
wow, the camera work and editing is real pro. great job guys
Thank you, we really appreciate that!
I'm glad you took us on a short walk around the "parts not yet back and running" - a pal said recently that the city even after all this time, is still struggling. This was when I was talking about the loss of retailers in Auckland from the Pandemic/economic downturn - but from your point of view eateries up and coming. We seem to be a nation of "eating out people" - not that I do that much, but the younger generation
Yeah, we thought it was important to show both sides but we've visited a few times over the past 10 years and the buzz is definitely back in town which is nice to see ❤️
To be honest, parts of the CBD have been struggling for decades since the days of unbridled retail expansion in the inner suburbs. It was already known that Christchurch had levels of shopping far greater than the population warranted but the Council kept permitting more. So there will always be a pull to mall shopping in the suburbs which also affects all retail in town.
Drooling over the food 😋
Hope we didn't make you too hungry!
What a fun video! I work near the Riverside Market. Love going there for lunch on occasion. So many yummy choices. Also love going to Little High on the weekend for a treat. Bacon Bros is yummy, but really huge servings. I share a burger with my husband. Or I love to get the katau donburi from eightgrains. So yummy!
Your comment just made us hungry again 😂
Spanish food is one of my top favourite foods,and their beers,even better being there.
Ooh we love Spanish food too!
Love Christchurch! 😍
Same 😋
FOOD! looking forward to the two week food tour(Stacey you have to plan it), so many choices. And me thinks y'all just barely scratched the surface. Probably have to balance out food days with extra walking days. Looking forward to the next video, safe travels. Cheers!
Can you imagine a full few weeks of eating 😂 We'd have to be rolled all the way home haha!
@@DanegerAndStacey you're right,but it would be fun! Got excited about the next ep( after the petting zoo) PIZZA🍕! Looking forward to it!
Eating is my favorite! Oh my, those waffles sounded absolutely amazing! Haha, Danger's face with his first bite. Also, there is always room for both (candy and donuts) 😉
You're speaking our language! There's a separate compartment in the stomach for sweet food right? It's science 😂
@@DanegerAndStacey most definitely! Somehow there is always room for dessert 😉
That was so great. I have lived in the country just out of Christchurch for40 years now but prior to that I lived in Christchurch for 25 years. Have not been back since the earthquake. You made me homesick. As soon as the warm weather comes I will go in for the day. It looks so different and yet still the same. So exciting. Where are you from ? You sound like New Zealanders. ❤️
So glad we could take you on a walk down memory lane. They've done a great job of blending the old with the new so we're not surprised it still feels the same but different! We're from Auckland ❤️ but been on the road travelling full time for the past 4 years!
When I was in Christchurch last it was during the start of the Covid lockdown and I couldn’t travel for my final 3 days of my time in New Zealand, I missed so much looking at what you’ve been doing in the city
Oh noo that's such a shame, but it's also a great excuse to come back someday 😉
Yeah the Tongan sounds in the background with dumpling’s & ramen !!!
😂 All the cultures!
Wauw the sweet selection 😱😂😂 i bet take ages for kid to choose or adults 😜 the bar had a lovley view.
It took us SO long to decide 😂 There were way too many options!
OMG 😳 those waffles 🧇 and dumplings 🥟🤤🤤 👌🏾. 🥰🥰🥰 lmao 🤣 at the corn 🌽
We should've just got the corn 🤦🏽♀️😂 Crucial mistake
I live In Christchurch myself, I'm soo trying the Pink Lady Roof Top bar, looks great thanks guys!
Make sure you get the boujee fries too! 🤤
@@DanegerAndStacey so will guys 😍😍 cheers
Hey guys first time watching u guys i am a chef and also live in Christchurch. new Brighton has alot of street art and cafes. Honey cafe is the cafe i work for ill keep an eye out for u guys liked the video enjoy it keep up the vids
Ooh thanks for the tip! We will definitely have to visit Honey Cafe next time we're down that way 😊
It was definitely the corn you missed out on. Lol Just had a vegan curry ramen on Friday with corn and it was really good. Kinda surprised you didn’t go for the pizza. 😉
Haha rookie error with the corn! Mad regrets not getting the pizza after our ramen debacle 😂
Awesome video! The CHCH food scene looks much improved from when I left in 2007.
Although that ramen 🍜 looked like it should be on the menu at a “caff”… a bit shit 😂
😂😂😂 ooooh you got us right in the funny bone with this one!! Hahaha SO true!
Next time you are in CHCH check out Saturday’s cafe in New Brighton. The food is super instagramable! Especially the granola and porridge. The waffles are epic too!
Ooh it's been added to our list, thank you!
I don't know if it's still around but I used to go to Elliot Stables in Auckland when I lived there and Little High kind of reminds me of it with the upmarket food court vibes and all the wood and brick.
Oh we know Elliot Stables, what a throwback - not sure if it's still there! Similar vibe for sure
It is still there. Struggling atm, but hopefully will survive and thrive again in better times.
Great looking city to visit
Definitely worth a visit!
The menu 12:56 shows they used rice noodles instead, so I dont know why they still called it ramen. Yea the corn would have helped 😂
Ohhh so we made 2 crucial mistakes 😂 Lesson learned!
Thank you for this. I'm a Christchurch local but have found it too heartbreaking to go into town since the quakes and have only been in if l absolutely have to. Will definitely try again, there's nothing like the promise of good food for encouragement.
I hope you do manage to Niki to, life is so much brighter when you can stroll around town. 😊
@@tonifoster6253 Thank you Toni. Thats really kind. My favourite friend has just moved back from years living overseas so, having someone to explore with will make it easier to deal with as well as more fun.
@@nikiTricoteuse Baby steps start out small but there are nice places to visit, the botanical gardens with a browse around the museum with a cuppa at the boat sheds or lunch at cafe 50 at The George won’t disappoint. All the best spending time with your friend.
@@tonifoster6253 Great ideas, thanks so much. What memories they bring back! Started hiring canoes at Antigua boat sheds with my bestie almost 50 years ago! Used to haul up on the riverbank at the Gardens and watch the world go by. Was so happy when they added a cafe. Must be 20 years since l went to the Botanic Gardens and had forgotten that there is a cafe restaurant there. Would be lovely to visit the museum again too and don't know cafe 50 so will definitely check it out too.
Aww ❤️ Our hearts! It's completely understandable that you feel that way - we're so glad this video gave you some encouragement though! If you need any tips or extra encouragement we're always here to help.
At Riverside Market, I hiiighly recommend the bun-cha at Hanoi Alley! Its so goood
Oh nooooo, we're getting so many good recommendations - we're going to have to come back! Thanks for the tip!
Go to El Fogon. You will taste things you have never tasted before and they are all amazing.
I wonder if it's the same as the one we have in Auckland (coz that's epic!)
Wow 🤩 there Malaysian 🇲🇾 street food , awesome 😎
Yes! Hawker and Roll (It's really good!)
Feels weird watching a UA-cam video about where I live
We'd feel the same way but we're glad you're here!
Need the corn!!
Haha apparently so! 🤣🤣
😍😍
😊😊
My favorite 3 places to eat in Christchurch is TopinTown (all you can eat indian restaurant), Genghis all you can eat bbq buffet and Bensons chinese restaurant. Im personly a quantity over quality person ahaha but they qualities still good
Haha love it! You sound like a bargain hunter!
Thanks for calling out the caf /cafe issue . You are so right....I also think it's a reflection of the people who like 'cafs'...you know, like 'caf' people go to 'cafs'
Hahahahaha omg we're dying! This is too good 😂 Caf people
This doesn’t even touch on the countless fab food venues and dining options in Christchurch - the four venues I Miro, Riverside Market, Little High (which are both excellent and offer multiple affordable fast food options, beverage and fresh produce outlets under the one roof plus some table service options upstairs in Riverside Market) and roof top bar are all worth a visit but there is so much more on offer. Some favs are Burger Burger, Bottle & Stone, The Old Vicarage Restaurant, Raspberry Cafe, C1 Expresso, Bohemian Bakery, Original Sin, Dux Dine, Strange & Co, Moment, The Athens Yacht Club, Thai Po Thong, Raw Sugar, Rangoon Ruby, Bunsen Cafe, The Lotus Heart, Rollicking Dessert Cafe, King of Snake, Dux Central, Strawberry Fare, The Cup, The Monday Room and sundry pubs to name but a few. Need more than a couple of days to check out diverse food and drink options in NZ’s BEST CITY 😍
Thanks for sharing. We loved the choices we made in one day (obviously you can't try every eatery in the city in one vlog) so we feel we scratched the surface enough to know that chch has a great food scene.
Im from christchurch and riverside market is the best 4 sure
We love the riverside market!
Best food eatery in christchurch for sure
If you guys decide to do another christchurch video could u guys do riccarton mall id b happy to join you in that video if youz do it
Love you guys so much when are you coming to Kenya
As soon as we can!! Will you be our local friend/guide?
@@DanegerAndStacey yes definitely. This could be an honour.❤😊whenever you come just email me @nyamburavictoriah28@gmail.com
Should have come to the Hornby Hub night market and tried Sonya’s World famous ( in Nz) beef noodle soup for $15 with home made Vegetarian spring rolls and chicken wontons !
Jeeez that sounds bloody amazing! Next time!
There is better Ramen at Riverside Market at Either Cluck Cluck Slurp or Ramen Ria.
Samurai Bowl on Colombo st has the finest Ramen in Christchurch.
@@bjammin187 I haven't been there, I'll have to try it.
Ok I think we're gonna have to come back to Chch and do a full video on all these new Ramen suggestions 😂
Little High Eatery is another place to try
Keep watching 😉
You made it 🤣
They literally only showed the entrance of the multi-storey carpark and I knew exactly what carpark that was.
Clever!
Stacey is very beautiful in this video
Aww too kind, thank you!
Lmao "Caf" is my new word for any establishment that is 'a bit shit'
😂 Can't believe Dane shared that information but I'm glad you're on board with it!
4:26 Waaaaaay too many toppings on the Gaufres de Bruxelles / Brussels Waffle...
Hides whether it was a good pillowy waffle...
For me, whipped hazelnut butter would be sufficient... ☺
13:02 LoL... Trying to eat corn with chopsticks vs spoon... ☺
The waffles here are nothing like Brussels Waffles so they kind of need the toppings but we hear ya - simple is good!
Y U M !!!
🤤
Shouldve tried Rollickin Gelato.
It felt like it was about minus 5 degrees so a hot cookie and coffee was WAY more appealing
@@DanegerAndStacey but you shouldve had the gerry brownie or the hot choccy cake- both warmed up. I just had 1 the other day. Amazing even in Winter.
❤️NL
Next time you're at Little High try Bacon Brothers
Don't tell anyone but we've actually had Bacon Bros before so wanted to try something new but holy wow it was SO good!
The first restaurant was great but others were just ok. You guys should try other better ones in the city.
Always open to suggestions! Feel free to let us (and anyone else researching) where we should have gone?
Dimitris falafel souvlaki!!! If you fo back :p
Yum! Next time for sure 😊 Thanks for the tip!
Amaterrace Teppanyaki.... great Japanese
On the list for next time, thank you!
When will you come to Thailand again? 🇹🇭
Hopefully in the near future - it's too hard to get back into NZ at this stage
BEST van twixx Love 💕😘 kumrular MAŞALLAH
Stacey, where is your coat from please? 🥰😍
It's from Forever New (this season) get in quick, it's SOOO warm and amazing!
Vics is still #1 for breakfast in Chch -cratt embassy us now closed- the Japanese coffee is probably the only good place in riverside -dumplings $2 rice woulve been better -if ya know ya know,
I don’t know who you are but for some reason I can imagine you on The Block.
😂 Your comments are the best, hope you subscribed so we can have more banter in the comments next week! We just have to learn how to build real quick then we'd be up for The Block
$2 rice goes hard hangi pit
Come come Anatolia
Bit hard at the moment!
Need more buffets on christchurch and as you prob seen the Christchurch rebuild is still way off
Buffets aren't really our vibe but we hope for you sake they open more!
That tram went too far north. . . . .
It just goes where the tracks take it 😂
Good place new zealand but i need job nl restaurant
if i had a choice i would ditch north island and live in Christchurch.. haha ^_^
Bland ramen? ask for chili oil, dude.
And corn apparently 😂Lesson learned
It looks nice, but I'm just a bit worried that Muslims are not welcome in Christchurch...
????????
No. Don't worry Muslims are welcome here. That murderer was NOT from Christchurch and did not act for us. As-salamu alaikum.
They definitely are welcome, that arse was an Australian and he is in jail for life, that is not who we are.
Oh please never feel like that. Muslims are so welcome.
