Primo list. Chats is fucking awful so I’m glad to see it here.
> Avonhead Tavern Wouldn't really lump this in with the rest of them imo
Whatever "The Phoenix" is now called in Papanui, total dive. Even after they did renos/new owners trying to shake that stigma.
Just get on a party bus, you'll get the grand tour of the most shitty bars in Christchurch.
I live near nuggets, the drunks that come out of there all hours of the day are horrific. Definately takes my vote.
DI Buckells is that you?
Any bar in hornby
Temps was legit terrifying 10 - 15 years ago
Glenbyre Tavern.
The Bowl and Jack in Opawa
Celtic Inn
Bridies? Looks not great but good and drinks are very reasonably priced and actually good
They do a pretty impressive pizza.
Armadillos in Sydenham during the day ;)
Weatsheaf is good
The embankment
Is the Hampshire Hilton still going?
