Within the leafy Featherbrooke Valley, near The Cradle of Humankind in Muldersdrift, you\u2019ll find the idyllic Vivari Hotel and Spa. Only 45 minutes outside of Johannesburg\u2019s CBD, it\u2019s close enough to the city to offer an easy escape from the frantic pace of the metro.<\/p>\n

Although the boutique hotel attracts a steady flow of leisure and business travellers, local day visitors are drawn in by the hotel\u2019s signature restaurant, Brambles. Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the food is always delicious, and non-hotel guests are welcomed in to experience a taste of 5-star luxury while enjoying the hotel\u2019s exquisite natural surroundings.<\/p>\n

Dining at Brambles<\/h3>\n
\n

Lunch menu: <\/a>Available daily from 12h00
Dinner menu: <\/a>Available daily from 18h00
Brambles experience menu:<\/a> For groups of 10 or more<\/p>\n

In keeping with Vivari\u2019s ethos, “freshness, abundance, and health” shine through in every dish. The \u00e0 la carte lunch menu<\/a> has a selection of fresh and flavourful tapas, salads, burgers, grilled meat and fish, as well as generous \u201cfarm\u201d, \u201cfield\u201d and \u201cocean\u201d sharing platters.<\/p>\n
