The best restaurants Gansbaai

On Cliff Street, facing the sea, Coffee on the Rocks is a friendly family restaurant with a superb balcony overlooking the ocean. While sipping a coffee or reveling in your breakfast, you can see the whales in season. On the menu: fresh salads, sandwiches filled with homemade bread and local delicacies. The coffee is very good. Inside, the decoration seems to be frozen in time, an old wooden piano on one side, soft and chequered period armchairs, dishes from yesteryear, like the framed photos on the wall.

A little cocoon of nature. As soon as you walk through the door of Thyme at Rosemary, the setting is soothing. In the back is a beautiful flowered garden with a shaded patio, where it is nice to eat in the cool. Inside, there are two rooms, a dark front room and a bright back room with a large bay window overlooking the lush garden. The tables are nicely set with beige lace doilies. The menu is local and refined, the plates are fresh and colorful. As for the welcome, it is discreet and warm. A delicious moment.
