I'm from Christchurch and I've been to many cafes for breakfast. Powerhouse has been the best breakfast I've had for a long time. They cater really well for gluten free patrons. I went twice in the weekend. Their pancakes were gluten free and soooo delicious. You can't often get GF pancakes and these we fluffy and tasty. Their egg dishes all come with the best potatoe cakes. Well done guys!
Enjoy a welcoming vibe with spacious indoor and outdoor seating, plus generous portions that pack a flavorful punch.

Lovely indoor and outdoor seating. Delicious muffins and gluten free options. Coffee unfortunately served in those annoying cups with a handle that is too small. Coffee was also not hot.
Expect a mix of flavorful dishes and some menu confusion, with a cozy vibe that's perfect for a casual meal.

Food was nice, however the menu is misleading- none of the chicken options are dairy free due to marinating in yoghurt- despite saying dairy free. Explanation of this was also lacking- the only reason our group came is because the menu said dairy free and gluten free options. Other than that food was nice, mild lamb saagwala was nice could have done with more salt. Coeliac friendly, seemed to have lots of options for gluten free.
No cocktails for some reason? Again not explained well.
Was in at a quiet time service was standard, other than the menu being wrong was okay.

Came for breakfast. Gluten free burger ordered wasn’t given any options within the burger. Took out the onion rings not offered any cheese or extras. Meat patty was more like a sausage patty and bacon over cooked. Little disappointed.
A fantastic spot with a standout menu, speedy service, and an impressive kids' selection, perfect for a fun family outing!

Great pizzas and great gluten free options, including the lovely gf pizzas. Our waitress was careful to explain everything really well and was just lovely with our 11 year old coeliac daughter. Highly recommend if you are gluten free.
Appalling in every way.
We booked a table for family on Xmas day lunch buffet.
Absolutely disgusting food. Way overpriced. Shocking customer service and they deliberately overcharged us. The chef and manager repeatedly told me the menu would be safe for a celiac. Upon arrival the head chef told the the vegan lasagne was safe. He knew nothing about food allergies or that pasta had gluten in it.
The staff were all internationals who couldn’t have cared less about the Xmas traditions.
Accommodation providers in Hanmer have since told us that no one eats there and they don’t refer anyone to the restaurant and will be throwing away any advertising this year for the Xmas buffet. Many unhappy diners on Xmas day walking out.
Avoid this place.
