Rascal

Rascal is a modern bistro + dining bar serving fresh, fun food + drinks in the heart of Christchurch City.

With red brick walls, beautiful pendant lights, a large bar and smiling faces, this cosy spot will make you feel at home as soon as you walk through the doors.

The Rascal way of dining is all about sharing with small plates designed to be sampled by the table, your dishes arrive as they are made. It’s a social affair in every way, with casual, attentive service that makes sure everyone is well looked after.

We recommending grabbing multiple plates, and trying a bit of everything. There's something for everyone from safe favourites, to some more adventurous combinations. Some must-tries are the popular Crab and Mandarin Pani Puri, Venison Tataki and Coastal Lamb Loin with mint, pea and feta risotto. End the evening with something sweet – good luck choosing between the Deconstructed Tiramisu Cheesecake and the Strawberry Semifreddo with Caramelised Croissant.

Don’t forget to try the famous cocktails everyone’s been talking about. Not only will you get the most delicious, beautifully presented cocktails here, but they’re also created using minimal waste. By foraging for ingredients, growing their own flowers and herbs, and using local produce, your cocktail will go down that much smoother knowing it’s made in the best way possible.

Feeling a bit cheeky? These Rascals can't wait to meet you!

Open for lunch on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Open for dinner, drinks + snacks Tuesday to Saturday.
