 One of the best restaurants we have been to! Stunning view, incredible food and the people are amazing, helpful and friendly. We haven't received such good service and tasty food in a long time! We held a birthday party there and they went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and assisted in everything we needed.

 What a lovely experience we had. We both had the Spring Bakkie breakfast with fresh fruit, Yogurt, muesli, nuts and honey. Very friendly service and a warm welcome. The butchery is clean and neat and their prices are very reasonable. We will definitely be back.

 We went for dinner at their Bow and Arrow restaurant and were impressed with the really good quality and great value of the meat platter. Lovely views with inside and outside seating, beer on tap, nice wine selection and good service. Also nice local goodies available for sale like aubergine relish.
