The Terraces Art Gallery is located at 13 Wansbeck Street, South Hill, Oamaru and works as a gallery, studio, hang-out spot and unofficial visitors' centre.

Local Kevin Murdoch restored this building and filled it with historical relics. Here Kevin and long-time friend, Al Bell, both also have their own art on display and their own studio setups.

Kevin focuses on oil paintings and Al does printmaking. The artists take inspiration from the Waitaki landscape, flora and fauna to depict amazing pieces through two different mediums and styles. Alongside Kevin and Al’s art, you’ll also find relics from the region’s past which Kevin has carefully collected and displayed.

Both artists are often in the studio, so if you're feeling curious pop in for a chat and have a look at their amazing work.

On Arun Street, Oamaru you will find Vinbrux Bakery and Kaffehaus, a charming spot to indulge in their wide array of delicious German-style sourdough bread, homemade cakes, beautiful pastries and a menu full of delicious breakfast and lunch dishes.

The Vinbrux family is very much involved in the business and many of the ingredients incorporated in the bakery and café are grown on the family's 34-acre farm. Bread and pastries are made with the wholemeal flour the family mills themselves and all the other products used to handcraft their scrumptious meals are as local as can get.

Choose from rhubarb crumble cake, black forest gateaux, lemon and almond meal cake and apple tart with a cup of delicious coffee if you're up for a sweet treat. If you want to enjoy a nourishing meal, their menu includes German classics like sausage with sauerkraut on a homemade bread roll, scrambled egg crepes, fresh fruit pancakes, potato salad and hearty soups.

A perfect place to discover next time you're in town!

After spending a day at Moeraki Boulders, it is a great idea to take a five-minute drive from Highway 1, and head towards the FishWife for a delicious meal.

Owned and operated by John and Nicky, the FishWife is known as the place to go if you want to have the best fish and chips in Aotearoa New Zealand. Freshly caught crayfish and blue cod are the highlights of the menu.

Open from Friday through Sunday, The FishWife offers crispy crayfish pan-fried with garlic, served with lemon and a generous side of chips. We also recommend the battered and golden brown fried blue cod with -you guessed it, a proper scoop of chips.

Craftwork Brewery is an award-winning, small scale, Belgian brewery run by a brewing couple, Lee-Ann Scotti and Michael O’Brien located at 59 Tyne St, Oamaru.

Walking through the door feels like stepping back in time, with huge wooden tables, candlesticks, chandeliers and old fashioned artwork on the walls.

It’s been beautifully decorated and creates a cosy atmosphere that encourages lingering over one of the many craft beer options, all washed down with some local cheeses.

You can try pints of beer or smaller glasses which start at just $5. Each taster comes with a little bowl of nuts which always goes down like a treat.

Beer nerds have flown in from the North Island, Australia and beyond just for these pours so plan ahead and get to Craftwork while you’re in town.

Art has a very special place in Oamaru as well.

At 5 Harbour Street, you'll find the portal to local artist Donna Demente's creative dimension, the Grainstore Gallery. While many visitors expect to find a tiny attic here, Grainstore Gallery’s whimsical environment will absorb you into its many artworks to explore.

Enormous handmade paper mache sculptures of famous women such as Queen Victoria, detailed masks and paintings share the space with bits of ephemera that inspire and inform her process; antiques, taxidermy, and other artists’ work all add up to a massive collection of found objects.

Donna is usually around to answer questions so feel free to visit and strike up a chat.

The Galley is a lovely coffee shop located right on the water's edge of Friendly bay and right beside the Steampunk playground.

And when we say right on the water, we mean it! There really is nothing between you and the waves, and snagging a seat along the long window is a must.

As well as the glorious location, they provide a full menu as well as breakfast menu till 11 am and a cabinet full of freshly baked goodies.
