This was a lunch reservation for father's day, and yes it was busy, but despite that the staff were very nice and happy, well done staff for showing you can be nice and helpful while under the pump!
The food was delicious and a good portion size. We will definitely be visiting again.
Very good food, very nice staff but due to understaffed situation the service was a little slower than usual. The staff was amazing and very nice though! The food was very very good and tasty and also came in a decent portion. They also have a nice collection of beers, some of them are local, which is always a plus. Overall, great experience and a better staffed team would make it just perfect. I should also mention the spotless toilet facilities. Something we don't see too much these days.
Great place for a breakfast, with great positioning to the sun in their outdoor area. Wait staff had great hospitality and made a seriously good coffee. We got the eggs Benedict with an added hash brown and it was 5 stars - I was a bit delayed with the photos so will upload more next time we are there!
Do you know about the Better Half Restaurant in Leithfield SH1...we dined tonight at The Better Half Restaurant in Leithfield. This place is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a friendly smile. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, perfect for a romantic night out or a gathering with friends.
The menu was simply amazing, featuring a variety of dishes that are sure to please any palate. The flavours were spot on, and each dish was prepared to perfection. The Blue Cod was a standout for me, with its perfectly cooked smashed potatoes (beyond perfect) and succulent Buttermilk Chicken Burger and those heavenly smashed potatoes (again). The deserts were to die for....the Lemon Cheesecake accompanied by a delicious lemon curd sauce and ice cream and the Sticky Date pudding. Spectacular.
In addition to the amazing food, the service was top-notch. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and was attentive to our needs throughout the meal. The waitstaff was friendly and efficient, making sure that our dining experience was nothing short of excellent.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Better Half Restaurant to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience. The food and service were simply amazing, and I can't wait to come back and try more dishes! We were totally surprised and impressed. The photos don't do it justice. Thank you, Tim, for a fabulous meal
Wonderful lunch next to the fireplace. The food was delicious, and the staff were friendly, professional, and served with a smile. Lovely visit, and we will definitely be back again!
Wow wow wow driven past this place a few times in the short time we’ve lived North Canterbury…. Such a great local experience… great brekkie even for my difficult dietary needs … heads up the coffee is excellent to… friendly happy staff and even the owner came out for a meet and greet…
Totally recommend a visit here …
Food was delicious and the service was great with professional and friendly staff. Well done! I will definitely be back soon. I highly recommend, definitely worth a visit!
Calamari, smashed Agria deep fried potatoes , pork belly burger
Great atmosphere
We had a booth and found it a little cramped. Food was amazing and beautifully presented. Beef cheek was melf in your mouth with a delicious sauce. Vegetables were nicely cooked. The meal was very filling. Menu had a lot of choice and it was difficult to choose. Dessert menu had a good selection. My raspberry torte was very nice with a lovely berry sauce. Service was excellent. Lots of easy parking.
Quite impressed with my first visit mid afternoon Easter Friday when most other places were closed or came with a 15% surcharge. Nice atmosphere in and outdoors, the menu looks great with a few dishes I'd be keen to taste. I settled for a rather delicious seafood chowder, with a glass of Steinlager on tap this time, and as Arnie says; "I'll be back". As an aside, there is a classic car museum in behind and you need to book to view. Not part of the restaurant, although last Sunday of the month is a classic car meet.
