Somm

Positioned enviably on Princes Wharf, Somm captures the ease and comfort of a local wine bar with the ceremony and allure of a regional cellar door.

Somm draws its name from Sommelier — a wine steward. These experts are masters of the art, science and history of wine. Put simply, a Sommelier represents the joy of sharing and savouring wine. Somm embodies this. Somm invites guests to discover some of New Zealand’s best wines on their own terms — a glass after work, a wine flight on the weekend or a cellar door tasting. Lean into the experience as it suits, trying something new each time you visit. Come for drinks, stay for dinner. Just as the wine list reads as a celebration of New Zealand's best producers, so does the menu. Executive Chef Gavin Doyle has created irresistible snacks, pizzettes and seasonal sharing plates that go hand-in-hand with the impeccable wine offering. Welcome to Somm.

We recently hosted a private event at Somm and we were amazed by the experience. They consisently provided a stellar experience for us and all of our guests. They worked proactively with us to design our event and were incredibly accomadating to our requests both in terms of dietary and decor. The feedback that we have had from our guests has been amazing and we would highly recommend Somm to anyone considering hosting an event. A special shout out to Hami for making the event an unforgettable evening and constantly ensuring that we were well catered for and that everything ran smoothly. We look forward to visiting Somm many more times in the future. Thank you!

We hosted a large Christmas function at Somm and we are so glad we chose this venue. Erik and the wider Somm team were exceptional, from the quality of the food and wine, to the fantastic service we received from every staff member. I genuinely couldn’t point to ever having hosted a better function than this – and that’s all down to the quality of the venue, food, wine, and staffing that Somm provides. We’ll definitely be back, and soon.

Our recent visit to Somm was part of a team building excursion for our company's engineering leadership team. Somm's manager and staff took a personal interest in making sure that our team had a nothing but the best experience, paying close and careful attention to our needs both as a group and as individuals. Left in their hands the suggestion of sharing platters and specialities was well received and enjoyed by all. I can think of nothing that could have been better. Each of us leaving well entertained and feasted on splendid food selection.

Absolutely wonderful night had here. We had a large group and the service was amazing from getting our area ready to the consistently great bar service with some large requests coming through was awesome. Food arrived and was above expectations. I would fully recommend a visit here. The wine was exceptional.

This was my first time visiting with a large group of colleagues/friends for happy hour. What an incredible atmosphere, the weather was great, and it was a fabulous evening. Somm had quick service, was friendly, and the drinks were delicious.

Outstanding food, excellent service, great staff, very accommodating and everything was perfect. We eat out each month with a crew of many... This was by far the best for 2023. Thanks Erik and amazing staff.
