- We propose a near-cutoff parallel-plate waveguide haloscope for sub-meV dark matter. The concept retains the large-area openness of a dish antenna while providing cavity-like field enhancement through slow-wave response and coherent accumulation, without relying on a closed standing-wave resonance. For a copper waveguide, the projected dark photon sensitivity reaches $\varepsilon\simeq2.1\times10^{-15}$ near $m_{A'}\simeq 0.1\,\mathrm{meV}$. With an external magnetic field, the same transducer can approach QCD axion parameter space. The waveguide haloscope highlights a sensitive and scalable route toward future sub-meV bosonic dark matter searches.
