Love the food, drink and ambience. One thing that is weird is the fly picture in my coffee cup and I have to see it whenever I take a sip lol

Awesome food, with healthy options. We got the Buddha bowl and the Open burrito. I also had an iced mocha and it was one of the best around, heaps of ice cream in it, marshmallows AND a choccy fish (very naughty). 10/10 will have more meetings here.

Awesome interesting cafe. The coffee is ground in the old bank vault and there is a secret sliding door to the bathrooms. Well worth hunting out.

Quick and simple dishes. Amazing drinks... Don't miss the passion fruit mojito. Friendly staff and fun atmosphere for the kids!

Enjoyed my experience at C1 when I was visiting Christchurch. Thought the presentation of my avocado and eggs on toast was quite fun and I also had a really great chai latte. I can recommend this cafe!

Funky cafe, lovely style and delicious food and coffee. I had stumbled across this cafe when I was looking on places to go for coffee (via in a Google Maps search) and was drawn to the cool pneumatic tubes. The breakfast I ordered didn't come in these though and I didn't see anyone else have their meals delivered this way but was cool to see the tubes around the cafe. I liked the old Singer sewing machine that was a water pump operated by turning the flywheel...funky. Also liked the door to the toilets that looks like a bookshelf full of books. The coffee was excellent and the homemade sweet crumpets served with peaches, honey, mascapone and pistachios was perfect. Staff were friendly and the place had a great atmosphere.

Great café, the pneumatic tubes were very fun (we had to get curly fries to try it out)! The food was very compliment worthy - a great menu and very reasonable servings. The staff did their job and were polite though didn't seem too enthusiastic (I've heard that maybe they haven't been looked after since a change of management?)

I recommend avoiding this café. Any food or drink establishment requires three things : (1) good food/drink; (2) atmosphere; (3) good service. We visited this café on back to back days. On both occasions the coffee was oustanding. The first occassion the atmosphere was perfect. However on both occasions the service was terrible. Specifically the same women working there were acting as if they were doing us a huge favor. This was completely opposite to the hospitality that we have been experiencing everywhere else during the past three weeks in New Zealand. Because we thought the coffee was so good and the women were perhaps having a bad day, we came back the next day. The same women behaved in the same fashion, if not worse, as if they did not care. Perhaps it was the substandard service which colored our perspective but the atmosphere of the cafe seem to have diminished - the lighting more harsh and the music louder and less friendly. Sometimes, even having an excellent product is not enough when the front of house people are so inhospitable.
