An acronym for South Western Townships, Soweto was dubbed as such in 1963. The area began in the late 19th century as a temporary neighborhood for gold mine workers, then later became a black Johannesburg ghetto with forced apartheid settlement. In 1976, Soweto garnered international headlines with its deadly uprising against Afrikaans-only language education. The Mandela Family Museum and the recently restored Credo Mutwa Village (with its Zulu and Sotho homesteads) are two can't-miss sights.

Lucky Bean

Reviewed By Bekkiekind

The menu was good, and the ambience was great, but the highlight of our lunch was really the Waitron. Such an absolute pleasure! He was knowledgeable and witty and had an amazing sense of humour. He also suggested beautiful dishes that were the highlight of our meal!

Salvation Cafe never disappoints - food and service always great. We waited minutes for a table at this very busy restaurant and were seated the trees . The restaurant is vibrant, busy, and extremely popular.The calamari was declared to be the best ever as were the burgers and my chicken Caesar salad was delicious. Great ingredients and great service. Fantastic lunch spot in jhb.

The Warehouse is listed under the "Features" tab - it is the inhouse restaurant at the Protea OR Tambo Hotel

Reviewed By Fiver75

The Warehouse is the in-house restaurant at the Protea Hotel Or Tambo. They have very cool aircraft-styled décor and the result is a nice atmosphere. Windows along one side overlook the hotel grounds, with planes visible in the sky as they take off and land at the airport. I got room service for dinner, which is the same food that they serve in The Warehouse, and it was excellent – a lovely Chicken Linguine that was both very tasty and quite reasonably priced. The breakfast I had the following morning was also very tasty, with a huge range of hot and cold foods available. Overall the quality of the food was excellent. What was strange was that the breakfast was very expensive, almost twice the price of my dinner. It was also excessive – the spread was excellent, but it was clearly a way for the hotel to trap unsuspecting visitors. My recommendation would be to take the free shuttle to the airport and eat there – even with standard airport overcharging you will find a cheaper meal of a similar standard. So that was my little gripe over. I was happy with the restaurant and the food was excellent – just watch the bill, and if the buffet breakfast seems too good to be true, that is because it is. Otherwise I would rate the restaurant an excellent 5-stars, but their greed costs them a few points.

Tasty breakfast very well prepared, excellent service, good coffee (will ask for extra large cup next time). Definitely worth a visit. Highly recommended- but be sure to get there early. It is a smallish venue, and popular. Creamy mushrooms - to die for!

The Countess is an authentic American diner smokehouse combination. The steampunk interior is fun and cozy. We source the best ingredients and make everything ourselves, even the ketchup. We have a quirky and relaxed atmosphere and pride ourselves on frie

What a nice treat at Melville’s 27 Boxes.The Countess is certainly a big draw card in this center.With an extensive list of artisanal drinks, as well as interesting bistro type dishes, there truly is a delicious morsel for everyone.The plating and presentation is very creative and feels easy and relaxed. Amid this quirky cool space, have a small bite or a share board with interesting people.
