The Lodge Commercial Bay brings Rodd & Gunn's meeting of fashion and hospitality to the foot of Queen Street. Set at Shop T002 within the waterfront precinct, it works as naturally for a business lunch or after-work drink as it does for a longer dinner. The kitchen keeps the brand's New Zealand identity on the plate through local produce and a polished but approachable menu, while the bar and dining room allow a visit to move easily between snacks, a complete meal and drinks.

Oysters and raw or cured fish put a coastal accent on the first part of the meal. Market oysters can arrive simply with lemon or horseradish granita, or baked with citrus, chilli and garlic butter. House-cured Ora King salmon is paired with fried capers and potato blinis, while trevally crudo uses fermented chilli, pickled fennel and a Negroni dressing. Tiger prawns with citrus butter and spiced coconut sit alongside a beetroot salad with whipped goat's cheese, pepitas and aged balsamic.

Pasta and larger plates carry the menu into deeper flavours. Cacio e pepe keeps to spaghetti and parmesan, lamb shoulder folds through rigatoni with tomato and oregano, and crab spaghetti brings lemon butter, garlic and chilli. Duck pappardelle and truffle-mushroom risotto add two richer alternatives. Beyond pasta, diners can choose roasted market fish, wild wapiti with carrot, beetroot and blackcurrant, eye fillet, dry-aged New York strip or a Wagyu burger with cheddar and onion jam.

The signature menu turns those ideas into a five-course progression, beginning with pull-apart milk bread before salmon, mushroom risotto, wapiti and passionfruit pavlova. Dessert can also mean sticky-toffee pudding with miso caramel or dark chocolate mousse with hazelnut and raspberry. The drinks list is similarly expansive, moving through New Zealand wine and craft beer to house spritzes, martinis, Negronis and alcohol-free fruit-and-herb combinations, so the bar supports both a full dinner and a shorter waterfront visit.
