Breakfast at the Oasis

Filed under: Cafes & Restaurants, Central Christchurch — Tags: — realruth @ 6:42 pm

Oasis on the corner of Madras and and Chester Streets was the venue for breakfast this morning.  This restaurant looks out on the river and Poplar Crescent and it was lovely to watch people walking along as the day dawned.  However the chilly decor, with glass-topped tables, is not the most welcoming on a winter morning. 

The service was mediocre and the food ordinary.  One of my friends ordered bagels and was disappointed when they turned out to be bagel-shaped bread buns.  Two of us had the full breakfast without sausage.  I asked if my sausage could be replaced by extra mushrooms, was told yes, but the extra mushrooms failed to appear even after I’d reminded the waitress.  Breakfast at Oasis is not a meal any of us will choose again.

“The situation can’t be beat
but it’s not where we’ll choose to eat.”

  1. Yes, must agree with you. Ate there recently- food was OK, but service was as you say mediocre. Would not rush back.
