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 table at the main bar, unwind by the candlelit fireplace, or enjoy alfresco dining under the glow of the streetlights.

Begin your feast with generous shared starters designed for the whole table, lamb rissoles, crispy buttermilk chicken, and toasted tomato & basil bruschetta finished with shaved parmesan and aged balsamic.

Then journey through the selection of hand-rolled pizzas, inspired by flavours from around the world. From family favourites like classic pepperoni, Hawaiian, and funghi, to bold choices such as the hearty meat lovers or our aromatic Moroccan lamb, perfect for couples who love to share a slice (or two).

And when it comes to comfort done right, nothing satisfies quite like a perfectly crafted burger. Take your pick from our juicy beef, grilled chicken, or flavour-packed veggie burger.

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.
