Private Dining

An Evening (or Afternoon), Entirely Yours

Private Dining is your space, exclusively — whether you're gathering family, hosting friends, or celebrating a milestone worth marking properly. From the moment you arrive, Hapuku Kitchen is yours alone, with Fiona and the team on hand to host you the whole way through.

There's no set menu here. We design a seasonal feast around your occasion, drawing on whatever's freshest from our gardens, the coast, and our trusted local producers — tailored to your group, your taste and the tone of the day you have in mind.

Available for private lunch or dinner bookings for up to 24 guests, Private Dining is perfect for celebrations, retreats, work gatherings, or simply a beautiful excuse to bring people together around one table.

Looking for something smaller and more communal? Join us at our Supper Club instead.

Want your gathering to include a little more hands-on adventure? Explore Forage & Feast or The Cook's Long Lunch for a guided harvest alongside your feast.
