About Fisherman's Wharf

Fisherman's Wharf is a seafood restaurant at 39 Norwich Quay in Lyttelton, overlooking the working port and Lyttelton Harbour a short drive from central Christchurch. The venue trades on its harbourside outlook, with panoramic views of the port and surrounding bays in a relaxed, family-friendly setting.

Seafood is the focus, and the operators run their own trawler to supply fresh fish, drawing on a family fishing background. The menu covers New Zealand-style fish and chips, seafood chowder, grilled fillets, prawn skewers, mussels and sharing platters. Dining is informal, making the most of the port location rather than a formal fine-dining format.

Meetings and events

The waterfront position and platter-friendly menu suit group meals, touring-party lunches and relaxed celebration dinners in Lyttelton. For MICE organisers building a Canterbury itinerary, it offers a genuine working-port setting for a casual seafood-focused group meal close to Christchurch. See more Christchurch venues.
