About Us
There is fresh salmon on the West Coast! Just one hour’s drive from Fox Glacier Village or the Haast Township you will find Glacier Country’s best kept secret. Nestled in the Paringa Valley is the Salmon Farm Café.
The salmon pondsare on site just below the Café balcony, surrounded by native forest and farmland. Feeding the fish is a meditative experience and you can see why fish ponds are a part of many Zen gardens.
The open plan café and gift shop really has local roots. The wood floors and café counter were made from a single black pine (matai) tree from the Condon family farm. While the stone around the hand crafted fireplace was sourced from Graham’s family farm in Arrowtown.
Fresh and smoked salmon reared in the unspoiled waters of Waituna Creek is wrapped and ready to be transported to your kitchen. If you are not a natural-born ‘Foody’ capable of creating gourmet masterpieces Brenda and her team also have salmon delights in the fully licensed café.
You really will feel well fed and right at home, even if your real ‘home’ is on the other side of the world.
