About Fino Wine Bar, in the operator's words
Floating on the waters of Lake Wakatipu at Queenstown Marina, Fino Wine Bar is your waterfront wine bar.
Our aim is to create a space that feels like home; a place you have coffee in the morning and return for dinner that evening; a place we know your name; a place passionate about the enjoyment of great wine and amazing food.
Fino Wine Bar offers a hand-selected list of over 40 wines curated by Eugene Kliushneu, sourced from family-owned boutique vineyards primarily around Central Otago. Our entire wine list is available by the glass or bottle, and to purchase for later enjoyment. In partnership with Bendigo winery, Quartz Reef, we provide wine experiences serving as their exclusive Queenstown tasting lounge.
Our sharing-style menu rotates seasonally, featuring European-style dishes crafted with fresh, locally sourced ingredients by our Executive Chef, Stasia Andani.
We are open for coffees every morning and our full menu is available from 11am until late. We can host private functions and event for up to 60 people inside or outside.
