Nor'Wester: a restaurant proudly situated in heartland New Zealand.
Since 1997 we have been serving and cooking for people from all around the world.
And we have loved every minute of it - Come, dine with us soon.
We are committed to our craft, and to nurturing and growing the experience this sustainable restaurant offers you, and ourselves. We support our local economy through choosing local produce where possible, and we care about the environment.
Throughout our menus we aim for fresh uncomplicated dishes that really support the taste and texture of the great produce we have chosen, and that reflect our place in rural North Canterbury. Our awards will satisfy most that we understand the concepts and value of wine and food partnerships, and good service.
The beverage list includes a selection of fine wine from our local district the Waipara Valley, contrasted by wine from the rest of New Zealand and the world. We also serve a rewarding range of leading beers, spirits, and liqueurs, plus many non-alcohol choices.
Coffee connoisseurs can be guaranteed that we are a destination for that consistent oegreat cup, and the Nor'Wester has received many accolades to support this claim. Since opening in 1997, we have been unable to go past our first choice in beans, Coffee Supreme from Wellington.
For travellers on-route to other destinations, more casual style food is also available, along with a selection of delicious small goods to accompany your hot drink.
The Nor'Wester is open every day from 9am through to evening close, including all public holidays, except Christmas Day and Boxing Day.

We dropped in to this cafe on our way south( and had to repeat the visit on our way north again) and were absolutely amazed by the superb standard of food, friands (out of this world in lightness and fresh fruit),cakes and squares, all outstanding. The coffee and service was also of the same standard. I would highly recommend this cafe. We'll certainly make this a regular stop in our trips from Auckland to Dunedin.
