3rd time visiting Sun Dog Diner and thought I should finally leave a good review! Just had their breakfast for the first time, hotcakes, and they are amazing! I've had pancakes from many different places both around Christchurch and New Zealand and I think these were the best! The service is always fast and friendly and has a really nice environment. We will be back!

Glad I picked here for my 1 little outing this morning before leaving CHCH as the pop culture art alone was thoroughly enjoyable to walk around and look at. As for the menu it was very cleverly written for more movie/TV references and had such a wide selection of everything it was hard to choose, from breakfasts to homemade deserts and beverages. Even had biscuits and gravy which I didn't expect to see outside of the southern US (where I'm from) and whilst the sausage gravy was good, I think the biscuits could have been better if they were more like the US style ... But maybe that's just being used to something different
One of the few places I genuinely enjoy and come back to over and over. Not only is the food authentic and delicious, but the music, staff & decor is all in sync and makes it a very pleasant, fun place to go. I've been there with family, friends, and even alone--and the experiences were all great, which is not something I can say of many places at ALL. Currently the Sun Dog Diner is my favourite eatery in the city, and I don't say that lightly! It's not extreme, fancy high cuisine, but it's not trying to be: it's American diner food done right and, honestly, better than several diners I went to in the USA! Keep it up Sun Dog, you're the real MVP in this town _
We were served by a young person who obviously enjoys their job and it reflected in the care we received. He was engaging and so observent! The food was equally as good and they don't hold back on the portions! The drinks were also well made and even the non- alcoholic drinks were fantastic! Can't rate this place enough! The best dining experience we had, by far, while visiting the wider Christchurch area.
oh man, this diner rocks.. great music, very cool dudes running it, and the food!! omg... not what I had expected at all... the food is out of this world, delishimo.. it's got a "super chill" atmosphere... we loved it here, and will most definitely be coming back.
Fantastic food! Bottomless ice tea and sweet tea. Fruit pies. Amazing fried chicken. Can't wait to come back to try Philly Cheese steak. Not just American food... FABULOUS American food!
Great atmosphere, friendly staff. There was a slight mishap with our order not coming out and (who I assumed was the manager) rectified it immediately. Highly recommend Sun Dog Diner, the food was amazing and the Soda is super tasty. Wicked little place to grab some brunch.
My wife took me to dinner here and it was really good. Service was very pleasant, Meals were tasty and the variety of options was really good. I tried a milkshake and it was delicious. Well worth a visit.
