Downstairs Bar
OUR STORY
As you descend from Twenty Seven Steps, you leave the modern-day chaos and enter into a cosy drinking den with an old-world charm atmosphere.
Located in the heart of Christchurch's central city and nestled in the iconic New Regent Street, you find Downstairs serving relaxed, seasonally charged food alongside an extensive wine list from New Zealand and around the world.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
our food is creative, thoughtful, and honest with our dishes centered around the changing seasons. Just as we are passionate about wine made with integrity, we believe food starts with beautiful produce.
