Thrive Community Café & Catering

26/08/2026

On Saturday night, our Thrive team had the pleasure of catering a private dinner for George Hampton, Labour Party candidate for the Christchurch Central electorate. ♥️

The VIP guest of the evening was the Right Honourable Helen Clark, and Maree & Bevan couldn’t pass up the opportunity to grab a photo with her! 📸

A huge thank you to George Hampton & Richard Holstein for choosing Thrive Catering to cater your special event.

We really appreciate your support and the opportunity to be part of the evening.

It was a pleasure to serve you and your very special guests! ✨

✨ New Menu Out Now! ✨
Our cosy new winter menu has arrived, and it’s packed with fresh flavours to warm you up.

The all‑day breakfast just got even better with the addition of the Pancake Stack, served either with banana, bacon and maple syrup, or with banana, berry compote and cream if you’re feeling fruity. 

We’ve added three new burgers to the lineup - the Kiwi Burger, the Fish Burger and a delicious Crumbed Mushroom option. If you’re after something hearty, you can also tuck into the Steak Sandwich or our creamy Chicken Pesto Pasta.

Loaded fries are back, and all your Thrive favourites are still here too, including the Mission Breakfast, Nachos and the Chicken Schnitzel Sandwich.

So pop in and try something new from the menu today, your winter comfort fix is waiting.

We wish you a safe and restful long weekend. 😊

They shall grow not old,
as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning
We will remember them.❤️
