Reviewed By Graham E - Loxwood, United Kingdom
A visit to this restaurant was again one of the highlights of our stay in South Africa. Definitely the best meal in the region with calm, friendly, efficient and professional service. The food was nothing short of outstanding and we were greeted as friends notwithstanding we only visit once a year! We ate on the stoop deck on a warm November evening enjoying the food, the excellent wine from the vineyard and the sun setting over the distant hills - a memorable evening.
2. Christina's Bistro at Van Loveren

The place to lunch in the Robertson Valley if you love Thin-crust wood-fired gourmet pizzas, award winning burgers, great food made to order from fresh local seasonal produce. Located within the lush Gardens of the Van Loveren Estate, child and pet friendly Seating under the vine-covered pergola, or inside the old Manor House with french doors opening up into the Gardens. Also open on Sundays when local musicians set the tone for a laid back afternoon!

Van Loveren Wines on the Breede River, outside Robertson has the most spectacular well established Gardens, a visit well worth it, whether one is going for a wine tasting or not. We headed to their bistro restaurant 'Christina's', and whatever one might have to say...MoreDear LewR, Thank you for your positive remarks concerning your recent visit. We hope to welcome you back soon. Regards, Delia

The tables outside next to the nursery at the back, makes this establishment worth a visit. The smoke from the business next door, is intruding on the atmosphere. Food was honest and priced reasonable.Dear 820fredk I am glad you enjoyed your visit and apologize for the smoke from the business next door. I am sorry you found us a bit dull? Hope to see you again. Regards Jo

Bodega de Vinho is a perfect stop on your journey - alongside the Route 60, the smell of freshly baked pastries and breads are enough to tempt you. Gorgeous light meals and breakfasts are served. Kiddy friendly play gym and place for your dog to run around.

I am a regular, and yes, there has been a problem in the past year with service, I was pleasantly surprise yesterday with their service& a tasty Bobotie wrap! Their coffee has always been good! Affordable prices, trendy homemade food. Coxy fireplaces, red chairs on the inside, nice! What I do like alot is that one hardly wait long to be served. They know that most people are en route, needs a driving break but do not want to be kept waiting unnecessary. Well done Bodega De Vinho!

Discover MO & ROSE’s country getaway for exploring the Robertson Wine Valley – situated on perhaps the world’s longest wine route the R60/R62 just outside of Robertson in scenic Klaasvoogds West. Nestled at the foot of the Langeberg Mountains, enter a magical world – a sensual secret garden inhabited by legions of succulent plants and trees silhouetted against the vast South African sky. At the centre of this marvel reside the boutique country house and a superb wine bistro.

We had very bad service from the manager. The food was average. The place is beautiful . It was very sad because we had booked it for my husbands birthday. The owner has apologised but it did not really help a ruined evening.

Reviewed By JHDX - Cardiff, United Kingdom
Fronted by a semi-outdoor eating section shrouded in see-through plastic (a smoking area perhaps), this restaurant doesn't present a lot of eye appeal from the kerb. The inner dining area is more traditional. There seems to have been heavy investment in red velour. It's busy here and judging by the way the metaphoric piano stops playing and everyone turns around in their seats to eyeball as we enter, the place is jumping with locals. They all seem to be heartily satisfied with its grills offerings. The menu is long and reasonably varied but this is a steak house with plenty of cheap and tasty wine to wash it all down. The majority of diners have clearly got here early since by around 8.15 the tables are emptying. Nevertheless there's an interminable wait for our main courses (three prompts to the waiting staff). We believe our order was overlooked in the kitchen. The charge is denied. Just a feeling, but it might help the level of service you receive if you're a known local in this eatery. Maybe we just has a bit of bad luck. It happens. I wouldn't advise against eating here – but I shan't be returning.
7. Meerkat Kitchen

4.5 based on 8 reviews
A small, informal coffee shop / restaurant that serves healthy, rustic meals, including lots of Vegetarian food. Children are welcome. Join us for breakfast, brunch, lunch and afternoon tea. Play Reading evenings also arranged.
Reviewed By Mamakalisa - Cape Town
This quaint little restaurant/coffee shop is hidden behind the Spar in Roberston. It is SO worth turning off the R62 to enjoy some delicious homemade food. The owner is a charming and lovely lady who obviously cooks with loving care. We stopped for lunch and I enjoyed the best butternut soup ever - smoothly creamy and delicately flavoured with homemade bread. The warm chickpea salad has tastes of Morocco and tender greens lavished with Feta cheese - scrumptious! Even your plain garden variety toasted Sandwich is served with a generous helping of warm potato salad and a garden salad.
There is plenty of parking in this quiet street, with some shady trees and a nice stoep where you can enjoy excellent coffee.
I haven't seen prices like Meerkat's since the 80's! 3 dishes for R75, and HUGE portions. Generosity abounds in this little gem of a place.

Probably the hottest day in Robertson for a long time; 42 degrees. So being welcomed in to a beautiful, air-conditioned dining room in the evening was a pleasure. The food was excellent as was the service. Prices are towards the high side but you still get value for money. All three of us had different things off the menu and they were all cooked to perfection. Will definitely go back.

Savour the tantalisingly fresh flavours available at our on-site restaurant.With much-lauded Michelin-trained, French chef David Godin at the helm, you are guaranteed a superb gastronomic experience, be it for breakfast, lunch or dinner, all of which are served daily.

So booked at Rosendal without Reading reviews because I LOVE their wine. Arrived almost an hour late, as we got lost finding the place, signage from the main rd is not great!
Unfortunately they had a power failure but were trying their best to make it comfortable and nice.
I ordered the prawn and Noodle starter which was a total rip off. R85 for cold, bland prawns and noodles.
My main, of seafood stew was amazing but they forgot to serve me the bread. I reminded the waitresses 3 times, but still nothing.
Their saving grace is the 2 bottles of Rose Pinotage we consumed !!
All in all, not sure I will dine there again.

A really nice coffee shop with a good menu serving meals in a peaceful setting. We often pop in for their breakfast specials. The joy of the place is it's serenity. There are not many tables and no loud chattering or music. Just good, wholesome food and personal service. Credit cards accepted.
