Die besten französische Restaurants in Christchurch

Went to celebrate partner’s birthday. Venue buzzy, table decorated to reflect - nice a low key, no singing! Staff friendly and attentive but not in your face, it was very busy but they appeared genuinely happy to be working there. Food pretty amazing for a chain and reflects French heritage, we shared a charcuterie board, had Breton fish stew and poulet Breton it was top notch. Neither of us drink so had the Oddbirds bubbles - lovely. Only quibble was them running out of creme caramel so early on a Saturday evening; they lost our dessert order although alternatives were suggested . Keep it up would definitely recommend and return, fab value and great experience.

Fabulous meal, great service and free bottle of wine on steak night. Chateaubriand was excellent and flavoursome.

2 of us ordered the pumpkin soup which sadly came up cold! This was quickly rectified though. I didn’t like the flavour olive oil dribbled on the top which I felt drowned out the flavour of the soup although this wasn’t much to write home about. My daughter enjoyed hers. And the others enjoyed their starters. We were advised that given the offer I had if a diner spent £20 on their meal wine, beer and soft drinks were included. When the bill came the soft drink was charged for. Again this was sorted out but ….

A stunning first visit to The Oaks! The Cheese Soufflé is phenomenal. We dined on a Wednesday night so took advantage of the 2 steaks offer - absolutely perfect steak with great accompaniments and wine included. Winner. Lovely staff, super friendly and a gorgeous venue too. We will be back next time we visit the South Coast for sure!
