Coffee Culture Merivale - Christchurch

The day we were there, they only had 2 staff members serving and a 20+ minute wait for a coffee...one guy making coffee and the other staff member doing EVERYTHING else. I noted several potential clients walk away due to the 20 minute wait. The poor girl serving was obviously stressed but doing a great job....until she dropped a plate and burst into tears. My partner jumped into action and helped her clear some tables and into the kitchen to help load the dishwasher. She was happy to help BUT...where was management??? Two kids running a busy Sunday afternoon cafe. Pretty poor on managements behalf I feel. HUGE ups to the two staff members who had to battle on regardless....you guys did all you could and did it well! Five stars to you two! Management, wake up to your responsibilities or your business will suffer. We will not be back anytime soon!

The BEST bagels I've ever had!!! We make the effort to go across town just for them.

I noticed that this place was consistently busy, so I went to check them out. Great coffee and nice cabinet selection. The space is fairly ordinary, but quite a nice vibe with the people there

Good coffees as they always do like other Coffee Cultures but their bagels are overpriced, hence the 2 stars.

Great service, coffee and food was delicious. We were amazed at how quickly our food came out once we had ordered. Definitely recommend
