After being closed for more than 8 years, this unique Category 1-listed heritage building at the top of the Port Hills in Cashmere is open once again. With NEW local family business owners, they offer you a splendid cafe, bar and restaurant setting just 10mins from the CBD. They boast divine coffee and yummy food, plus amazing views of Christchurch & the Canterbury Plains.
The Sign of the Takahe’s fully stocked cafe & bar offer a casual, family-friendly brunch and dinner experience along with tasty bar snacks. Be sure to pull up a comfy chair to enjoy a castle like feel or relax with a cold beverage in the secluded beer garden.
