Participating Restaurant

Amongst the serene beauty of Orakei Basin, Copia stands as a beloved local gem, offering a relaxed atmosphere and waterside charm. Step inside and immerse yourself in shared plates, set menus, and a curated selection of New Zealand wines, craft beers, gins, and cocktails. But here's what sets Copia apart: they take pride in sourcing ingredients from their own restaurant garden and greenhouse, embodying a commitment to sustainability and ethical dining. Chef owners Ken O Connell and Sam Sykes infuse their culinary expertise, honed in esteemed New Zealand and European restaurants, into every dish. With a focus on modern New Zealand seasonal cuisine and organic, biodynamic wines, Copia promises an authentic dining experience unlike any other in Orakei.    Photography: Courtesy of Copia
