The Old Vicarage

Staff were amazing as always. Food was prompt and so good!!! Love coming here!

Lovely dinner at The Old Vicarage, beautifully cooked & presented meal, highly recommend. 4 very happy customers.

Love the Vicarage, will definitely come again! the atmosphere and service are as amazing as the food.

Very exceptional!

As always, fabulous food and service!

Always great food at the Old Vicarage. It is definitely one of our favourite places for breakfast in Christchurch. Highly recommend the eggs bene - so good!!

We had an amazing evening, the staff were incredible and the food was absolutely amazing. We will definitely be back again soon

Faultless, sumptuous food, fantastic service & a lovely setting. Staff knew the menus well & made really good recommendations to us. Thanks!

I had been on the First Table website so many times but never booked, but finally I did and I'm so glad I did. I took my Aunty out for her 85th birthday and she thought I paid for the whole table but secretly I got the food half price. Made dining at a fancy restaurant affordable. Cannot wait to use this more and more!

Delicious food in a warm friendly environment. We will definitely be returning.

Good home-style cooking. We enjoyed the food very much.

Always a pleasure to sit and dine at this restaurant. Great people.

Lovely meal. Very welcoming for families.

Delicious food with great portion sizes. Will definitely be back

Lovely night out with my husband. Enjoyed going early when it is quieter

Last Saturday we enjoyed a lovely meal at The Old Vicarage .The service was attentive and the meals arrived in a timely fashion and were delicious.
The fish dish I ate was a highlight.
Our only complaint is that the room we were seated in, namely the Library, while small, intimate and interesting space, was so cold we had to keep our coats on.
We were so cold we did not stay for dessert.
Hopefully next time we will be seated in a warmer area.
We certainly will be back.

Fabulous food, lovely staff (just the right touch of solicitous without being bothersome) and overall glorious dining experience. We'll certainly be back!

Great food and service

Dined here with 3 other ladies on Saturday night and due to the inclement weather that night, was looking for a lovely/warm atmosphere inside. We were sadly disappointed in this sense, as were taken to a lovely dining area that was freezing cold, one heater and offered blankets which when dining out is not ideal. That said, our meals were absolutely delicious and our waitress for the evening was very attentive. Will definitely be back.

Staff were friendly & helpful. Food was outstanding! Highly recommended - Thank you!!

Of all our Christchurch dining experiences, “The Vicarage”, is always consistently great -second to nun! Good meal choices, friendly service & perfect food. We love the decor & inside/ outside seating choices. The parking is easy & plentiful. Live music was fun, ( not too loud). We had a great night celebrating two birthdays. Hallelujah! We wouldn’t altar a thing.

Delicious meal, amazing quick and friendly service, was also very impressed with the price even though we dined on a public holiday.

Fabulous as always :)

Always lovely, always good service and such a pretty place to sit.

Place is cosy, food is satisfying us.

It was our first time dining at The Old Vicarage last night and wow lovely staff and the menu was exquisite. The Ropers will be back! Especially for a romantic dinner for two

Tasty meal of pork belly. Fast service no worry about 90 min .table time

Can never go wrong with the old vicarage! Amazing food, amazing service and amazing atmosphere. Would highly recommend any food off there menu and a bonus that most of the food can be gluten free. There’s not many restaurants that cater for gluten free but the old vicarage has a full range as well as dessert which was to die for!
All round amazing

It was a birthday celebration the food was great as was the service staff were there when needed .Menu was explanatory with the choice of small plates and main meals we were all satisfied and left feeling well looked after and full .

Fantastic "girls" night out

If you enjoy good food and service then this eating house is the one to go to.
As a party of 4 we enjoyed our evening from the time we walked in until the time we walked out all immensely satisfied. The fish of the day thepulled pork was moist and full of flavor.
The staff were very efficient, and attentive in servicing our needs,
It was a great experience in a warm environment on a cool evening. Well done everyone at the Vicarage you did yourselves proud.
Thanks.

Food was fantastic and being at a first table sitting we were served fast and out the door nice and early - great!

Awesome food Nd service as usual. Everybody left content and well looked after

Great food, excellent service- accomodating waitress for our two little ones. Will definitely be back.

Our meals were very delicious, nicely planted and presented. The wait staff were very attentive, pleasant. Best pork crackling ever!

Great food and service! We will be back.

Exquisite food in both preparation and quality of taste

Nice evening thanks

the food was amazing. we had lemon pepper calamari and buttermilk chicken for starters. calamari was cooked to perfection and seasoned nicely. chicken was soft and juicy. very tasty. for mains we had pork belly and beef fillet. can't fault either dishes. nice presentation, very fulfilling and just yummy. i was skeptical since this is the first time we used first table and thought the size of the servings will be somewhat not as per usual. but we left with smiles, happy tummy and definitely was a great night. i must say the waitresses were absolutely amazing, very approachable and checked in with us ensuring everything was okay. will definitely go back for more :D

Friendly service and beautiful meal meant great night out.Will definitely be back again.

Great dinner experience. The beef was tender and cooked perfect. Desserts were also great. Would definitely recommend

Great night very good service

Amazing dinner! There were four of us for dinner and we all ordered different dishes. We couldnt fault the food at all; it was all amazing! The service was great, nice atmosphere. Definitely will return for a visit :)

Top rate! We all chose a different meal after sharing the calamari entree. Dessert was strawberry cheesecake. And everything was just right.
Good humoured and efficient service completed the experience.
Thanks for catering for us gluten free customers so seamlessly.

Had a wonderful evening at the Old Vicarage, overall the food was delicious, the pork belly in particular was fantastic! Just a few tiny improvements would make it 5 out of 5 - nothing major though and still highly recommend anyone to go. - The kids meals chips were slightly undercooked - but the main parts of the kids meals were loved :-) Never thought I'd ever say this about a dessert given my sweet tooth, but they were huge - could perhaps benefit from being a bit smaller - no one was forcing us to eat them all up though - that was their deliciousness and our low will power :-) And the wait staff were incredibly lovely but a bit too enthusiastic, asking what we'd like to drink as we sat with no chance yet to have looked at their great drink options, asking how the meal was before having taken a bite, coming to clear away an unfinished plate of someone who had just nipped to the bathroom etc - just a little more 'reading' of the table will quickly resolve that though. Overall a lovely meal and we'll head back again without hesitation.

Great food and service. One of my favs.

Good food served well. No complaints from us

Another great dining experience

Great night out
