Lb Co Espresso - Governors Bay

This place is definitely the saving grace of food options near university. There is a good selection of food and drinks to choose from, especially the bagels with generous portions of toppings. They also have plenty of places to seat group dining or coffee dates. However the service does feel a bit rushed and isn't always friendly.

Love l b and co . Love the staff. Love the food . Love the beef Sammy with truffle mash and swiss cheese . Love the all press coffee. 5 star all the way

I have been here a few times over the last couple of months and really, it's one of two or three cafes in Christchurch where I'll keep coming back. My partner adores the Parisian Eggs Benedict, and the Saturday morning counter staff are positively charming. A definite recommend, especially in the price bracket this cafe is in.

Beautiful new environment, well lit and clean. Service seems to be restricted to just the staff at the counter, not much to say in that regard.<br/ <br/ Both times I've been here I've only had drinks, and both times it's been a fairly middle of the road experience. Big quibble with both mine and my friend's iced mochas being room temperature other than the ice cream on top. Not very nice.<br/ <br/ Have come back a few times since writing the above, no update on coldness of iced mocha situation but have had other coffees since and they were delicious!

Absolutely amazing service, everyone is so cheerful and kind. I’ve been here 3 times and each time the service and food is absolutely wonderful. Everyone I know who has been here also agrees that it’s an amazing place. Definitely recommended.
