Food was excellent apart from slightly burnt humble crumble. very good value for money and very friendly staff. It is the best food in Christchurch in my opinion.

booked for special occasions....did does not have two food items on the menu, and was not said this at the time of picking up menu....ordered food code was overlooked, and they brought the starter exactly the same time as the main....the oil they used to cook, melt as if it needed to change again, as much as I had to change back to the hotel and change as they used my oil.

We love going to cheese and alfies. The food is homemade, and never disappoints. I enjoy going there for lunch and having the sharing platter options as the breads and dips are lovely.

The atmosphere is lovely and relaxed with plenty of dining room upstairs. staff are always helpful and friendly it really is a one-off and we love it for breakfast, coffee and cakes or a special dinner.

Very disappointed( and left hungry on Christmas Eve! normally would give 5 stars to Cheese and Alfie's but could not rate given it was shut this time!

We arrived at 19.30 as booked on the Saturday before Christmas. We were taken to the table, given menus and asked what we would like to drink. We chose an Australian Chardonnay from a selection of four or five whites. When the wine arrived we were asked what we would like to order to be told that there was no fish and no steak. Both of which would have been choices for my family. So the choice was burgers or pasta. We considered leaving but decided to stay. It took over an hour for the food to arrive, even though the restaurant was not busy, so we needed another bottle of wine: none left only Sauvignon Blanc. When the food did arrive in fairness it was hot and tasty, the service was from a v... Ver carta
