We’ve got a $100 bar tab for this absolute legend and the first person to tag him. Get sharing.

Across our group, the goal has always been the same: genuine hospitality, memorable experiences, and creating places people love to return to.

Craft has its own story, its own achievements and its own place in Christchurch’s hospitality scene. Tonight, though, we’re celebrating our sibling venue, Soul Quarter, on being awarded a MICHELIN Bib Gourmand in the inaugural MICHELIN Guide New Zealand.

Congratulations to Chef Shivam Chhibber and the entire Soul Quarter team.

Different venues. Different experiences. One commitment to exceptional hospitality.

You know who we are. You know what we do. ❤️

Today marks an incredible milestone for our team.

We’re honoured to share that Soul Quarter has been awarded a MICHELIN Bib Gourmand in the inaugural MICHELIN Guide New Zealand.

The Bib Gourmand recognises restaurants offering exceptional food at great value, and to be included in the very first New Zealand guide is something we’re immensely proud of.

This recognition belongs to every member of our team who turns up every day with passion, care and consistency. To Chef Shivam Chhibber and the entire kitchen team, our front-of-house team, and everyone behind the scenes—thank you.

And to our guests, thank you for filling our dining room, trusting us with your celebrations, and supporting independent hospitality in Christchurch. We wouldn’t be here without you.

We’re just getting started.
