Public Kitchen & Bar

Offering you exceptional local cuisine, Public Kitchen & Bar is all about local produce hunted in the hills, farmed down the road or caught off the coast. This is the place to experience Kiwi classics and grassroots cooking in a relaxed and informal style, right on the edge of Lake Wakatipu.

Using wild venison sourced from Fiordland, seafood exclusively from the South Island and pork from up the road in Geraldine, chef-owner Martin James and executive chef Stephen Clayton have crafted mouth-watering dishes which stay true to their local sources. The deliberate casual ambiance is designed to bring people together and connect with each other over good and honest Kiwi fare.
