The Sherwood's kitchen team takes inspiration from its beautiful surrounds and the bounty offered up by the changing seasons. A deep connection with nature and our surrounds define the food at Sherwood and the spirit of Alice Waters looms large.

Their recent kitchen garden is set to provide a steady flow of fresh, flavour-filled, organic produce from which the ingredients required for each service are harvested.

Along with ingredients foraged on their morning walks they collaborate with local farms and independent growers to bring you the finest sustainable produce that our region has to offer.

This same philosophy extends to their bar and wine programme where the very best of New Zealand’s independent producers are shown alongside rare and obscure gems from artisans around the world.

They work with boutique and family-owned wine producers and specialise in natural wine that describes a sense of place and time.

The cocktail list also reflects the seasons and celebrates the scents, textures and memories of our favourite moments and places.
