Chard Grill & Wine Bar is a bespoke establishment in the Village Square on the famous Hermanus waterfront.

While meat eaters have come to accept the view that a good steak has to be one of the traditionally tender and juicy cuts, at Chard the emphasis is on unusual and innovative cuts of beef as well as the old time classics.

Supplied by artisan butchers who are following the modern global trend to utilise as much of the carcass as possible, these new wave, alternative cuts are no longer flying under the radar and are presenting diners with a whole new culinary experience.

    Thanks to google AI I arrived on a Monday night thinking it was a burger special night. So paying R170 for a burger was unexpected. As a local I have been there a few times, and wanted to give feedback on the pulled beef burger we had... 1. It was smothered with the corn/cabbage? mixture - surely this should be mentioned on the menu? There was too much of it, it was a huge pile on my plate. I couldn't see any other other ingredients. 2. The wonton wrapper was way under, so was soggy - would have preferred it crispy. 3. The caramelized onions were actually deep friend onions. 4. The blue cheese was minimal. The burger was on the small side, and should be the hero, as the flavour was delicious. Overall it was good, but that corn/cabbage mixture was over the top.

    Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback — we really do appreciate it, especially from a local guest who has dined with us before. We’d like to clarify that Google AI occasionally trawls older ads, comments, and reviews, which can unfortunately result in outdated or misleading information being displayed. We no longer run the burger special on Monday nights. Our burger special is now available 7 days a week from 12:00 to 15:00, and we’re sorry for the confusion this caused on your visit. Thank you as well for your constructive comments on the pulled beef burger. Your feedback regarding the corn and cabbage garnish, the wonton wrapper texture, onion preparation, and blue cheese balance has been noted and shared with our kitchen team. While we’re glad to hear you enjoyed the flavour overall, we absolutely take your points on presentation and balance seriously, the burger should always be the hero. We value honest feedback like this as it helps us refine and improve. We hope to welcome you back again soon and give you an experience that fully meets expectations.

    Four adults dined and all of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Two of us had steak and agreed the best steak we've eaten in South Africa so far! Make sure you book a table as so popular

    Another fantastic visit to Chard, our third visit this holiday. Fantastic food, superb steaks, friendly service & a great atmosphere. One of our visits we tried the date night offer which is on a Wednesday night - meat appreciation platter inc Mac & cheese balls, onion rings, garlic bread, fries as well snails with bone marrow, biltong, sirloin & ribeye - incredible value at 475 rand to include 2 glasses of wine & dessert to share.
