Waterfront Function Venue Christchurch

The ‘Salt on the Pier’ Restaurant is available and can cater to a Breakfast, Lunch or Evening Function.

Our venue comfortably seats 80 people for either a set menu or buffet dining – inclusive of room for a head table or guest speaker if required. Our venue can also cater for up to 120 people if a finger food selection was the preferred option – a minimum of 65 people are required for this option

A venue fee is payable in advance – our venue fee covers all linen on tables and the sole use of our restaurant. We ask that you provide any additional table settings and decorations; however we would love to assist you in set-up allowing you to enjoy your day.

‘Salt on the Pier’ features a cozy deck which caters to smokers or those needing a little fresh air.

A perfect compliment to the evening is a stroll along the New Brighton Pier which access can be provided all evening.
