This place was so tasty! They made a great flat white coffee, but the avocado toast was amazing! It…read moreis a little higher priced, but totally worth it. It was more of an undone type of avocado toast with seasonings, poached eggs, tomatoes, and some sort of tangy butter or aioli, I'm not sure. It was just so pleasing to the eye and tasty! I did have much more avocado left, so I wished it had a bit more bread but it was still a good amount of food. I would recommend, it seemed to be a busy place with a few tables inside and some outside seating. Also a great spot on regent street next to other shops.

I visited Affogato during my first visit to Christchurch from California late 2023. It was…read morerecommended by my hotel concierge. I tried the buffet breakfast at the Crowne Plaza Christchurch but it's not up to my international taste buds. I walked 5 blocks to Affogato with my best friend and we both really enjoyed the food and the friendly service. I loved their eggs Benedict - salmon, bacon or spinach - and their berry French Toast. Great flat white and other coffee options. Easy to find location at the corner of Bealey Avenue & Colombo Street.

The service was friendly, they warmed up all our food (even for take out) and it was so scrumptious. A few of our favorites were the chicken pesto panini, orange almond cake, and quiche.

There was only 1 couple there and 1 worker who was also the chef and owner. I asked him what he recommended and he suggested the classic caesar salad. My friend had the salmon eggs benedict and I also ordered the date scone and coffee. It ended up being the best meal we had in New Zealand! Everything was so fresh and made from scratch. Another couple came in after us and since he was the only one there, we had to wait for our food for awhile while he took their order. Good thing I ordered the scone since that just needed to me warmed and was presented to us fairly quickly. OMG, the best scone I've ever had. I can't even give it a proper description. It was kinda fluffy but rich. The clotted cream and raspberry jam paired perfectly with it. I usually don't like raspberry but sigh, it was sooo perfect with it. The caesar salad had dry cured bacon, a poached free range egg, focaccia croutons and shaved parmesan. I've never had caesar salad with bacon but it was perfect. Breaking open the soft poached egg and mixing it up with the focaccia croutons, it was pure bliss. My friend's salmon egg benedict with spinach was also sublime. He said it was the best he's ever had. As we were driving away, we saw the little garden he had next to the cafe. No wonder the salad greens tasted so fresh. Not a wilted green in sight.

My Winter Vege Medley was a bit too much about potatoes, yams and pumpkin and very little about greens, which was disappointing - but I added Feta and Pine Nuts which were great. All other dishes looked good and my companions were happy. Coffee is very good here. I can't comment on the price as others paid. I would come back here.
