Apprentice Restaurant, situated in George, Western Cape, is the natural progression from the François Ferreira Academy. Our restaurant serves its customers delicious meals in an exquisite formal setting, where customers will get a feel of a genuine fine-dining experience. Our aspiring chefs in training at our state-of-the-art Academy, need a soft landing in the industry where they will prepare to go into the world and share a kitchen with another chef. At Apprentice, the chefs in training will be working as part of a professional team, adding their talent to the mix, and at the same time learning from the masters in the kitchen.

    The food is superb and beautifully presented but I found the portions are just a trifle too little for a healthy adult. This is a personal observation and definately will not apply to all patrons. For special occasions the online offering should clarify that any drinks will incur extra inhouse costs. A package deal in my view should offer a drink of some kind, perhaps just a coffee to finish off or a glass of juice/wine. Small children can somewhat tone down the otherwise great ambiance as their movements to outside play areas are all funnelled through the main entrance which does not have a self-closing door. Service staff should be attentive to this detail. Would I return? Absolutely, yes!

    We had a few meals at The Apprentice. We always found the food was of exceptional quality and taste. However, on our last visit on Sunday, 12 April 2026, we noticed a slip in the quality and standard of the food. As this was the first time we noticed a slight difference in the standard and quality of the food we also know that we should not measure all our previous experiences against our last meal. We shall definitely come again and trust that the food quality will be back to what we are accustomed to from The Apprentice.
