THE SHED.

Wine and dine at our award-winning restaurant, The Shed.

Te Motu Vineyard Waiheke

Welcome to The Shed, our own take on rural vineyard dining tucked among the vines of the Onetangi Valley on Waiheke Island.

The menu follows the seasons, shaped in part by a 685sqm kitchen garden grown exclusively for the restaurant, alongside produce from growers, farmers and local fishers we genuinely like working with. Our approach to food is serious but playful — thoughtful cooking without too much ceremony, designed to sit comfortably alongside a bottle of Te Motu.

Long lunches, shared plates, something cooked over fire, and serious bottles opened a little more casually than they probably should be.

Set within one of Waiheke Island’s oldest family-run vineyards, The Shed offers relaxed dining grounded in hospitality, seasonality, and wines that continue to evolve with age.
