Local Fresh Produce & New Zealand Wines

The menu at Te Karaka Lodge, located on a Waikato sheep and beef station, features a diverse range of dishes that showcase the best local and seasonal ingredients New Zealand has to offer.

Te Karaka Dining

With an emphasis on beef and lamb, the restaurant offers a relaxing and convivial space in which to dine whilst enjoying views of our rural location.

Our chef will prepare a decadent three course meal that changes daily.

Our beverage list includes local producers and a great selection of New Zealand wines, beers and spirits.

Breakfast is included with your booking and we offer the option to order a picnic lunch to take with you while you explore the region, or if you’re keen to kick back and relax at the Lodge, enjoy a beautiful grazing platter.

We welcome the opportunity to cater to specific dietary requirements, as well.
