Dunedin: Dining

Surrounded by water and farmland, Dunedin has access to some of the country’s best and freshest seafood, meat, and vegetables. Not far from New Zealand’s oyster country on the south coast, Bluff oysters are at their best around April. Whitebait, a comfort food favourite, is dipped in batter and fried pancake style, and can be found in any fish and chip shop. Dining in Dunedin is mostly casual, with a handful of fine dining options.
