Riverside Market is a vibrant food hall featuring over 30 vendors offering international and local fresh cuisine. Located on the banks of the Avon River in the post-earthquake rebuilt city center, it houses cafes, bars, restaurants, bakeries, butchers, and fresh produce stores. A cooking school upstairs offers interactive classes. The modern building with large glass windows overlooks the river, creating a lively atmosphere perfect for dining and socializing. It has become the culinary heart of the new Christchurch.
