    Beautiful lounge and good service (though no table was ready for our reservation), sadly just about everything on my full English breakfast plate was barely warm to cold. I think it sat for too long while waiting for the two Eggs Benedict orders (as the scrambled eggs had congealed). A pity.

    I had booked this venue for a 30th reunion! I cannot thank everyone involved in making this occasion such a special one enough! The entire experience, from booking, to our welcome, to the excellent service and meal was exceptional! Thank you!

    A beautiful setting in the Vineyard Hotel with stunning views of Table Mountain. We enjoyed lunch in the patio area to make the most of the views. It was a chilly afternoon - the lap blankets were much appreciated. Excellent service - all the staff are always so professional and friendly. We loved walking around in the gardens and seeing the huge tortoises. Our go to venue for special occasions. Free secure parking.

    We sat indoors due to inclement weather but due to the decor we felt as though we were in the garden - beautiful light, airy and surrounded by plants Tables spaced in such a fashion that gives one a feeling of privacy- and not overcrowded. Food was scrumptious. The cake would have been tastier if served at room temperature and not so cold. Will defs return
