Kai Whakapai
Wanaka's legendary cafe & bar (b,l,d; $$)
Head here before or after adventuring for a real Wanaka experience.
Kai, meaning ‘food’ in Māori, is a top spot for preparing with a major league breakfast, or recovering with large portions of cafe-style food and local craft beer and wines.
Hard to miss on the corner of Ardmore & Helwick Streets, with outside tables and a super-cool vibe.
