Play Pokies at O'Shea's Public House in Christchurch

Limited drink and food selection however they have the basics needed for a local pub. Often filled with locals it can be overwhelming for new people coming however the friendly staff and homely atmosphere quickly reduce any worries about stepping into unknown territory. I signed up for the loyalty program however not sure if it's worth it as you don't save much and can't redeem 'points' on drinks- only food. Overall 4/5 stars as it provides everything a local pub should with a bit more, however losing a star for the lack of variety in food and drinks, as well as the average pricing.

Tried the for 2 steak, it was pretty good. The service is great. The atmosphere is unique, it feels very 90s. The place is not that big, a bit squeezy. There is a nice fireplace inside. I like how they give tomato sauce by default without being asked.

The food has really deteriorated over the years and sadly I couldn't even eat half of the snapper, previously it was fresh battered, this one was from a box, insanely dry, a really unlpesant meal. I won't be back to eat from here, the staff and premises are good however, I'd come for a drink but that's it.

Fast friendly service from the crew today with complimentary chip baskets for the Western women's football teams! Was also treated to an 'on the house' slushie for being player of the day - fairly sugary & unsure what the alcohol content was, but a welcome gift all the same! Good local pub meals, drinks & prices. If you are looking for a family friendly venue without all the trappings then this could be it!

Now this is what I call a local pub. Impeccable service didn't have to lift a finger, thought I was seeing double but it was just the incredible twins behind the bar, Katy and Sam. Garlic bread was too notch I demolished it and left no crumbs. Well done O'Sheas I will be coming back here every time I'm in Christchurch.
