A Wayfarer is a “traveller, especially by foot”. To travel is something we all aspire to do, to visit distant lands and immerse ourselves in different cultures. Often it is the journey that is most rewarding part, something we only begin to understand upon returning home. A backpacking bartender from New Zealand and a overworked graduate from Chile meet at a bar in a large international city. They don’t know each other’s language. They intentionally fill their stomachs and unintentionally their hearts. 6 years pass by in a flash, they fill each other’s thoughts and accept each other’s faults. The best way to understand our story is through sharing our food and drink with the ones you love.
Our aim is to send you on a sensory journey across the Pacific Ocean to the vast continent of South America. Here we are devoted to atmosphere and service. A place to feast on food Inspired by the rich traditions of South America. The romance of Latin music will bring you tranquillity from the first moment you enter the restaurant. Local and international wines, New Zealand craft beers, Dunedin roasted coffee and cocktails inspired by a wayfarer’s journey across the world. Our menu is made using both local produce and unique ingredients native to New Zealand and South America. At the Wayfarer, every dish is a culinary adventure with the creativity and flavours that set our kitchen apart from anything else you can experience in New Zealand’s South Island. Our culinary experience brings together dishes and flavours from Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Peru, and Paraguay. With over 30 years of experience across our service team, we aim to provide not only excellent food and beverage, but a moment to remember. Our team take pride and pleasure in guiding guests through our menus and are happy to explain ingredients, techniques, flavours, and textures. We aspire to grow our brand to be seen as a local gem and among the best Restaurants in Aotearoa.
