Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

The best thing about this visit were the milkshakes. The burgers tasted like cardboard. The cutlery containers need restocking. Our must visit place when we go to Christchurch has now been crossed off our list never to return

This is the third time I had visited, this time hoping things would be better. They were not. The food was incredibly average and didn't deliver what was promised. The promised "crispy" bacon was soggy, eggs were dry and woeful at best, sausages bland and...More

Very simple process to booked online. Went for family dinner for grandson's birthday as he loves this place. All enjoyed trying the different flavoured milkshakes (even available in Dairy Free option) and kids just love the curly fries.
