Crafting Flavorful Fusion with Meaning
A Restaurant Rooted in Culture, Family, and Flavor
Yak & Fern isn’t just a place to eat—it’s where Nepali heritage meets Kiwi comfort in every bite. We’re a family-owned restaurant based in New Brighton, Christchurch. we’re building something more than a business—we’re creating a space where food becomes memory, meaning, and connection.
Why we do it?
A Restaurant Rooted in Culture, Family, and Flavor
We started Yak & Fern because Nepali cuisine was misunderstood and underrepresented. Most people confused it with Indian food.
So we built a restaurant that isn’t just about selling meals—but about:
- Putting Nepali food on the map in New Zealand
- Creating a space where culture feels alive and respected
- Building something meaningful from scratch
- A Mission That Goes Beyond Food
