The Boat Shed

347 Wakefield Quay, Stepneyville, Nelson 7010, New Zealand

(64) 3-546 9783

Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, the Boat Shed in Nelson is a great spot for a leisurely meal with great views. Housed in a simple wooden building on stilts that sits right above the bay, and with sweeping vistas of the sea, the restaurant features a seafood-heavy menu with lots of small plates to share. It’s a good spot for lunch if you are driving towards the Tasman area, where Edenhouse is based.
