The One Restaurant & Bar Rooftop

Perched on top of Christchurch's tallest hotel, The One Restaurant & Bar Rooftop provides guests with not just incredible food and drink, but also unparalleled views over the city's striking landscape. Even the shortest trip up the lift to the top floor of the hotel is time well spent, as it's a breathtaking gateway to the stylish, contemporary space above.

Inside, dark and moody interiors are lifted with tasteful pinks and golds, while plush leather seating promises maximum comfort, no matter how many hours you choose to spend at The One. It's not just inside where you'll be spoiled; venture outside onto the generous rooftop terrace to have your breath completely taken away by panoramic views of the Christchurch Cityscape, as well as the spectacular Southern Alps looking oh-so-close in the background - perfect for an album shot or two!

While you marvel at the sparkling city below, why not indulge in an incredible meal too? The One knows how to whet your appetite, beginning with an awe-inspiring à la carte menu. Unwind with a specialty cocktail, or select from the long list of wines, beers and spirits to pair with your meal. Start with something tasty from the 'small plates' selection, such as the pumpkin and goat's cheese empanadas, and for your main, both meat and fish lovers can rejoice; the menu is a harmony of both the spar and farm. A vegan and gluten-free menu is also available for those with dietary requirements, ensuring every taste bud is catered to.

Sharing is caring between friends, or tuck into a perfectly cooked Canterbury beef fillet or locally sourced seafood bisque for a meal just for you. Unload the guilt and order a side or two, with the macaroni and cheese being far from traditional, something any cheese connoisseur would adore. Leave room for something sweet, as the sticky date and rhubarb pudding or tonka bean crème brûlée are melt-in-your-mouth dreaminess - you might need to order both.

Whether you're out for a leisurely breakfast to start your day, a catch-up lunch on the roof, or an elaborate evening dinner under Christchurch's sparkling skyline, The ONE Restaurant & Bar should be at the very top of your list.
