My wife and I had our anniversary dinner on the tram as is something we've never done before.
It was a wonderful experience, it is so well thought out, the tram has been fantastically restored and beautifully set out, the staff are warm and friendly and provide excellent service, not sure how the chef produced such wonderful food in such a small kitchen.
Great experience, great food, great staff, just great, try it, 5 star's

Food was excellent, the experience was great, you get a bit squished but you've got to expect that. Defiantly a highlight for us

We had a wonderful night, we realised on arrival in Christchurch that we had booked for the wrong night, but the team on board were so helpful and got us on that night. What an amazing meal and experience, couldn't recommend more highly. Thank you.

Great meal except didn't think the sticky date dessert was anything like it should of been. The rest of meal was very nice, four courses were all well presented and staff really good. It was expensive but great for a celebration. As it was dark the last hr or do, nothing much to be seen outside. Would recommend more a summer time but lovely experience whatever season

Thank you for joining us for dinner on the Tramway Restaurant! We are happy you enjoyed the meal and service from the team on board. We were a bit concerned to hear that you were not happy with the sticky date pudding however, as this is generally a favourite from our autumn menu. If you could please let us know why you were disappointed with this dish we will pass this feedback onto our chefs.
Thank you for taking the time to post your review, and we hope to see you on board again in the future.

An interesting way to see the city on this historic tram tour around the city in the evening. As others have said there are tables for 2 or 4 and the menu a bit limited but the food was good. Fun thing to do but quite expensive. Bookings required.

We are happy you enjoyed your evening dining on the Tramway Restaurant! There are only 12 tables available on the tram, so we do recommend booking in advance (especially during weekends and peak season). Thank you for joining us and for taking the time to post your review.
