last 15years.\nThe wharf was built in 1868, one of five in the Thames area, and it is the only one still remaining.\nThe fish shop started as a fish wholesaler that offered a selection of fresh fish and related seafood products from\nthe front of the building which still exists today. Years later the addition of delicious takeaways was added.\nThe retail shop is popular with locals and travellers alike, and is well known for its selection of fresh\nfish and array of seafood products; including fillets, oysters, kinas, mutton-birds, mussels and a\nselection of smoked fish. With ample room for parking with a boat in tow; a variety of bait\nand bulk salt ice is also available on site. The Wharf offers fresh fish n\nchips that can be ordered at the fish shop and enjoyed on the outside BBQ tables overlooking the\nwater and Marina area. Alternatively, the fish n chips can be eaten in the licenced cafe next door,\na quaint little cafe that was established for exactly that purpose. All in all, a\nvisit to Thames is not complete without stopping in at Shortland Wharf.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section

and takeaways shop but it&#8217;s the same business.\nThis rustic little cafe started its humble beginnings as a small cool store that was converted to become\na licenced cafe to compliment the inclusion of fish n chips next door.\nThe vision of enjoying a meal of fresh fish n chips with a cold beer and a nice glass of wine while\noverlooking the water was the focus of its creation. There is indoor seating, an outdoor covered area\nas well as BBQ tables situated on the wharf which gives it an iconic kiwi feel. As well as enjoying\nyour fish n chips here, the Wharf cafe offers great coffee, cabinet food, an infamous mussel chowder,\nand a selection of cold drinks. It also offers a nice range of beers, pre- mixes and good wine all at\nreasonable prices. The Wharf Cafe is the only establishment in Thames with water views.\nIt\u2019s a winning combination &#8211; Good Food, Great Coffee and a Stunning Location.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1a9bd049\" data-id=\"1a9bd049\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-44b05455 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"44b05455\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thewharfthames.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/cafe-restraunt-rnrjiel68baj8q9awjih7q77z5cph673v2un2ykibk.png\" title=\"cafe restraunt\" alt=\"cafe restraunt\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ed40f46 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ed40f46\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-286637e\" data-id=\"286637e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a5e740c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a5e740c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Your Questions, Answered<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f72676f elementor-widget elementor-widget-jkit_accordion\" data-id=\"f72676f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"jkit_accordion.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div  class=\"jeg-elementor-kit jkit-accordion style-shadow jeg_module__4_6a951b4544305\" ><div class=\"card-wrapper expand\">\n                <div class=\"card-header\">\n                    <a href=\"#expand-8fab880\" class=\"card-header-button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" data-target=\"#expand-8fab880\" aria-controls=\"expand-8fab880\">\n                        <span class=\"title\">Do you have seafood available?<\/span><div class=\"right-icon-group\">\n                <div class=\"normal-icon\"><i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"jki jki-plus-solid\"><\/i><\/div>\n                <div class=\"active-icon\"><i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"jki jki-minus-light\"><\/i><\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"card-expand\" id=\"expand-8fab880\" style=\"display:block\"><div class=\"card-body\"><p>Yes.
