Great service and delicious food! If you are hungry - this is the place to go! It was busy when I went during the easter break so book in advance if you dont want to wait. I didn't mind and it was worth it!

Still going strong!

It is great to see Drexels still going strong. There is really is something for everyone on the menu and the prices are still reasonable for the amount of food you get. One person just ordered a collection of sides and that was not a...problem! We went on a Saturday morning. Book a table if you want a certain time and order straight away but be prepared to wait for your food. We ordered relatively quickly and the wait for food was almost had me asking a server where our food was. We never got the complimentary toast but it didn't matter because we could barely finish the food we ordered. A must do breakfast experience when in Christchurch.More

Best pancakes!

Had brunch there on a weekend trip to Christchurch. It was very busy but staff was great, friendly and welcoming. Banana pancake stack with blueberries, maple syrup and extra bacon were delicious 10/10. Really good filter coffee too with free top up.

Just wanted an omelette

Thank you Drexels for being the only place we could find in CHCH that served an omelette, and it was a damn good omelette as well. It was a busy Saturday morning, the restaurant was full, and we had not booked. The concierge still managed...to find a us a place at the bar, which was fine. It enabled us to watch what was going on. We observed every single staff member, either in the kitchen, or serving, working fast and genuinely taking pride in their jobs, and each other. They worked fast and efficiently while still smiling when dealing with customers either in person or on the phone. We saw this all first hand. Who ever owns this restaurant, you have wonderful staff, and for that hour last Saturday, they worked very well, and still served lovely food, with a smile. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending your restaurantMore

Excellent

We were served by a delightful waitress called Maddy . We sat at the bar and watched as a very happy team cooked and delivered meals. The food could not be faulted and we left very happy. Would definitely recommend this place to all

Reservations Essential for Weekend Breakfast

Drexel's is a very popular breakfast destination. It's located across the street from the Westfield Mall where you can park for free. I ordered the "Drexel’s Special" with Bacon, Eggs, Pancakes, and Hashbrowns. My spouse went for the Pancakes and Bacon. The Hashbrowns were “different”...than I'm accustomed to in the US, and both the Scrambled Eggs and Bacon could have been cooked more. The Pancakes were big, fluffy syrup-soakers. We found the multiple servers frustrating; our food came out before our juices were delivered.More
