An elegant icon: Crowne Plaza

In the heart of the city, the new 1851 Social Champagne Lounge at the Crowne Plaza is a recent addition to the growing number of true lounge bar options in Christchurch.

Hear that magical sound? That’s the gentle pop of a chilled Laurent Perrier Champagne bottle being opened, carefully poured then placed back on ice, every afternoon from 12pm onward at the 1851 Social Champagne Lounge.

Located on the ground floor at Crowne Plaza Christchurch, this new lounge bar is just steps away from a range of existing dining and entertainment spots (pre-show drinks anyone?), making it the perfect add-on, or starting point for an evening out in the city. The revamped space is an intimate venue with ultra-comfy lounge seating and booth tables. The classic interior has a certain ‘Gatsbyesque’ appeal with dimmed lighting, soft velvet surfaces, and antique mirror walls. The 1851 Social Champagne Lounge also provides the perfect setting for an afternoon High Tea at Crowne Plaza.

Sip away on premium loose leaf T2 tea, expertly brewed Vittoria Coffee, and premium sparkling wine or Champagne during an indulgent afternoon with three tiers of sweet and savoury delicacies. High Tea at 1851 is the perfect way to celebrate special occasions – birthdays, anniversaries and especially Mother’s Day. Bubbles, classic cocktails and inspiring small plates in a bespoke lounge setting, make this spot a date night, or girls’ night out to remember.
