Grater Goods

Born without the blood but with plenty of sweat and tears, Grater Goods is Christchurch’s standout vegan deli and bistro, nestled in a former glass factory in Sydenham. Run by fifth-generation ‘butcher’ and longtime vegan Flip Grater, alongside her husband Youssef Iskrane, this spot has evolved from a small sandwich bar into a vibrant café by day and licensed bistro by night.

The space, filled with mismatched vintage furniture, radiates creativity and style, making it a favourite for those who appreciate both good food and good vibes. Grater Goods is all about sustainable eating, inviting everyone—meat-eaters included—to explore their delicious vegan meats and embrace a more flexitarian lifestyle.

The menu features dishes like beetroot tartare, rotating specials, and a variety of vegan cheeses, from parmesan to fresh mozzarella. Whether dining in or picking up essentials for a vegan picnic, Grater Goods offers an array of delights, including vegan antipasti, pesto, mushroom pate, and more.

Stay tuned to their social media for updates, including live music events—Grater Goods is definitely a place to keep on your radar.
