Brigittes Espresso Bar

A stone's throw from the bustling heart of Merivale, Christchurch, Brigittes Espresso Bar proudly stands. This charming spot is renowned for its vibrant atmosphere and locally sourced, fresh cuisine. Catering to both breakfast and lunch-goers, this hidden gem offers an escape from the city rush and a cosy hideaway for private dining experiences upon request. With Brigittes' motto "If it ain't broke, don't fix it," backed by stuff.co.nz, the warm setting invites guests year-round, be it cosying up in the winter or savouring the fresh summer vibes in their private courtyard and garden room.

Their menu wows with an array of tantalising dishes, crafted with care and the finest ingredients. Among the many offerings are customer favourites: hash browns adorned with Parmesan, truffle oil, and chives; breakfast muffins stacked with an English muffin, fried egg, bacon, tomato relish, beef patty, and Swiss cheese; croissants and bagels with a rich variety of accompaniments, and the ever-popular omelettes and eggs Benedict with salmon, bacon, or mushroom.
