Waterfront Restaurant

Waterfront Restaurant is the perfect place to enjoy great food and wine with friends or family. Positioned right alongside Kaiteriteri beach, sit and enjoy being in one of the best destinations in New Zealand, while having lunch or a simple morning flat white. 

Our kitchen team sources ingredients from the region, including herbs grown on the Reserve, to deliver dishes that reflect the region. Starting with the ocean, our incredible aquaculture industry enables us to serve fresh and flavourful salmon, mussels and a wide range of sustainably caught fish year-round. We make the most of this bountiful kaimoana through a variety of delicious menu dishes. The friendly and knowledgeable local staff will be on hand to recommend one of our many regional wines or craft beers and provide you with an insider's guide to the best spots to visit whilst in the area. 

We are open seven days a week and bookings are recommended in our peak summer season for large bookings.

Waterfront Restaurant is proudly owned and operated by the Kaiteriteri Recreation Reserve, with profits helping to protect the natural beauty of the Reserve. 

Sample menus are subject to change due to seasonality or demand.
