The Core Bar & Grill

In the heart of Christchurch Central, on bustling St Asaph Street, The Core Bar & Grill is redefining the local restaurant and bar scene. Whether you're after a quick drink with delicious food, dinner with friends, or a venue for your next special occasion, this spot is made for casual dining at its best.

The Core Bar & Grill serves up something for every mood and mealtime. Grab a seat at the lively main bar, unwind by the candlelit fireplace, or enjoy alfresco bites under the glow of the streetlights.

Start strong with whole baked camembert or crispy pork belly bites, then let the spotlight shift to hearty mains that truly deliver. From crowd-pleasers like crispy fish and chips with tangy tartare and slaw, to juicy ribeye, tender pork ribs, and hand-rolled pizzas—from quattro formaggi to tandoori chicken—there’s something to satisfy every craving.

Beers on tap, wines ready to pour, and a menu built for good times make The Core Bar & Grill Christchurch’s go-to. Round up the crew and lock in a table where the good vibes never miss.
