A Guide to Eating & Drinking in Christchurch With Luke Dawkins

In the colourful heritage mall of New Regent Street, cocktail bar Gin Gin is a vibrant (and popular) spot in Christchurch's growing hospitality scene. We follow owner Luke Dawkins to three of his favourite local venues, starting with a filter coffee at a new, light-filled cafe pushing boundaries when it comes to breakfast. Next is a boutique, bio-dynamic family vineyard just 45 minutes out of the CBD and to end, a tiny and unpretentious wine bar turning out simple, locally-sourced delights.
