Sign Of The Takahe - Governors Bay

Shame it wasn't open when I got here, but I have been before and was really looking forward to going back. It has a great reputation because the food is great and the atmosphere is wonderful. There's an old style castle look both inside and out, so your senses are always active. Yes, it certainly is a place to visit, but unlike us, check to see if they're open first

I felt like my wedding was a beautiful dream. It was a stunning venue. An amazing castle with a beautiful garden which took great pics inside and out. The staff were lovely and as helpful as possible. Highly recommend if you have a chance to get married there you must do it!!!!! You will not be disappointed!!!!

It used to be very nice restaurant with fantastic views and excellent food options and one of our favourite places. Unfortunately post COVID restaurant is closed and only opens for group functions. What everyone else is left with is cafe that is only open for lunch, you can only get decent coffee and some limited choice of cabinet food and pastries. Staff is nice and place is still cozy with beautiful gardens, just miss the food options. Hope it reopens for public again one day.

Fantastic venue!!!! We had our Christmas work function here last night. The building Reminded me and made me feel like i was home in the UK. Andrew was friendly and accomadating. What a fantastic location. We will definitely be back.

Beautiful Old School Place to unwind and have a Meal/Drink when in Christchurch.Worth visting and taking some Pictures
