Overview

So, I popped into Ice Cream Charlie on Armagh Street, and wow, talk about a Christchurch classic! You can’t miss it, nestled right in the heart of the city.

Now, they’re known for their 100% natural crafted ice cream. I mean, it’s all about that Vanilla Ice, which, if you ask me, is a vibe all on its own. New Zealanders have been going crazy for it since 1903—over a century of sweet tooth satisfaction. There’s something magical about indulging in a scoop when you know it’s been a local favorite for so long.

Sure, there are a few mixed reviews floating around, but let me tell ya, the buzz is real. Think friendly staff and creamy ice cream that can take you back to simpler times—like your grandma’s kitchen. And I must say, those cones are a real treat to enjoy while just people-watching.

They’re open from Wednesday to Sunday, so plan your visit, ‘cause they close up shop on Monday and Tuesday. It’s perfect for that weekend splurge! Oh, and if you’re worried about cash, they take credit and debit cards, plus, there’s wheelchair access.

But be warned, the lines can be pretty long, especially on a sunny day. Worth it? I’d argue yes! You might find the prices a bit steep, but hey, who doesn’t love treating themselves? Besides, it’s all part of the Ice Cream Charlie experience—an iconic part of Christchurch that you just gotta check out!
