Inspired by an era in New Zealand when adventure and discovery blossomed, The Musket Room, which opened in 2013, brings the spirit of New Zealand to the diverse Nolita neighborhood of Manhattan.
The Musket Room is designed by renowned Alexander Waterworth Interiors incorporating rustic and contemporary design elements to create the restaurant’s simple, yet stunning and award-winning space. Walking into The Musket Room, guests are greeted by a striking 20-foot walnut timber bar, leading back to the bright and airy Garden Room, which offers views of the backyard garden, whose produce is incorporated in many of the restaurant’s seasonal menus. Lime-washed exposed brick and mid-century modern brass chandeliers add both character and depth to the 70-seat restaurant, while intimate nooks give it a romantic charm.
Guests can experience the restaurant’s three course, short story and long story tasting menus. The restaurant’s wine list features a large selection of hard-to-find New Zealand varieties unrivaled by any other wine list in New York City. The restaurant also boasts a continually updated list of hard to find New Zealand beers, as well as inventive cocktails featuring homemade sodas, tonics, and freshly squeezed juices, as well as in-house barrel-aged specialties.
