As soon as you step into French Blue iyou instantly know this store is one of the most charming and interesting in Christchurch. The products available are quite special and often unique . The owner Catherine has an eye for beautiful pieces and at different price levels which is helpful. She has a special knack to make everyone feel welcome and the cafe area is very inviting, there is even the most wonderful outdoor French style courtyard . I love this store and the coffee.

See I am not only one to get bad service. Nice stock in shop. Never looked at coffee area and took photo as I was deciding on treat to buy and got told off. Seriously told off. Never going back. Better places a few steps away!

Please don't expect people to return to your shop when you are rude to them for no reason. I will never come back.

This shop has really lovely stock. And if you want to explore you might find it entertaining. The lady who runs it is very rude and haughty. However I think it’s really amusing and I go there just for her reaction! It’s like something out of Fawlty Towers!!!
