The Wharf's culinary team offer the finest innovative cuisine using only the freshest, seasonal and often locally sourced ingredients.

The philosophy on food is driven by a passion to create inspirational cuisine designed with finesse and respect for the products. Key building blocks are flavour, texture, aroma and design, We love to use great New Zealand products and partner them with techniques and flavours from all over the world, then mould them with a modern palate in mind.

Held once a year the degustation dining experience, "Dine at The Wharf" is eagerly anticipated with a waiting list held for reservations prior to the opening of each season.
