The Brass Bell Restaurants and Pubs, located in the trendy harbour town of Kalk Bay, is situated in False Bay, one of the most beautiful places on earth.

Surrounded by the rolling waves, the restaurant complex of terraced dining areas, is nestled into the tidal pool walls, and offers visitors an unforgettable and truly unique seaside dining experience. Built in 1939, the Brass Bell’s humble beginning as a council-run “Tea Room” is a far cry from the bustling complex of waterfront dining venues that it is today.

Brass Bell’s owner, Tony White has pioneered the ongoing development of the Brass Bell Restaurants and Pubs, and together with his dynamic hospitality team, has turned the Brass Bell from a once quaint seaside bistro into a beloved household name, boasting an impressive series of 9 different dining and events venues.

The location and splendour of this magical place has captured the imagination and hearts of tourists and locals alike, and it is now a world renowned and well-loved hotspot; welcoming guests with our warm hospitality and superb menu selections.

    I know you have many tables at the different restaurants, but we waited a long time for our food to arrive, and worse yet, was the long wait for the bill.

    We absolutely love the Brass Bell. My only small critique would be the content playing on the big-screen TV in the cabin area. We were enjoying a romantic dinner, and UFC was showing, which felt a little out of place for the setting. That said, the beautiful sea view quickly stole our attention. Overall, a wonderful experience, and I would highly recommend the Brass Bell.

    My experience did not live up to the hype of the reviews and expectations. The food and service was mediocre, and the overall environment was dilapidated, outdated and unhygienic. The Brass Bell will seriously have clean ,fix and modernise their place to have me return. The dinning cuisine also requirs more refinement. Boiled eggs in a garden salad doesn't work ,for me and the huge chucks if tomatoes doesn't compliment as a side dish/ salad. My expectations was met and Im quite disappointed with the overall experience. The tables ,floors and bathroom facilities need a deep clean. Rzbles and floors are sticky, water dripping from ceiling onto the floors making floors dangerously slippery. Nobody came to clean up the water. The tiolet smelled of urine and was messy.How the Brass Bell can be classified as fine dinning is false advertising. It's more like a pub ang grub 'dinning'
