The Tap Room was just ideal. Considering I was on my gap year and therefore really short on funds (as anyone who’s been there before will know, NZ is not that cheap!) but between 5 and 6pm they have special offers. We had a stone grill which I’d never seen before where you cook your own meat on a 400degree... More

Despite the ridiculously overpriced drinks we tend to head to the tap bar quite often, we like the atmosphere in there and the fact that you can sit outside but be sheltered if its windy or rainy. Its a very attractive bar, and we've always found it to be clean and well maintained. The food is always delicious and there... More

We ate here twice during our recent trip to New Zealand. We went back just because we enjoyed it so much the first time! The first thing you should know if you haven't travelled to New Zealand yet is that food in the tourist areas tends to be QUITE expensive. One of the things we really liked about The Tap... More

The delay anyone would expect with a group of close to 50 was communicated very well and staff took great care to ensure everyone was happy. Plus the food was well presented and tasted great. Well done Tap Room! More

I dined solo at the Tap Room on a Friday night and was happily accomodated by who I think was the manager. The sfaff were friendly and attentive, giving me time to browse the menu, but checking at the right times to see if I needed anything. I enjoyed a glass of wine and the chicken breast and potatoes, with... More

The Tap Room is one of several restaurants right in the centre of Christchurch by the river. It was busy but delivered good service and nice food. It offers a number of 'Stonegrill' items - I had a mixed meat course and it was good! Cooking it yourself at your table is interesting too! It's not cheap, but it's pretty... More

Walked in for dinner (Saturday night), it was quite cold and they were busy. However, they were able to acommodate us and a table was ready in about 15 minutes. Meanwhile - we enjoyed the HAPPY HOUR - 1/2 price cocktails. Well made too! The meal was very good. Our friends had the stone grilled steak - looked awesome (they... More
