Ons by De Vette Mossel poog om veel meer te bied as bloot ‘n ete – dit is ‘n ervaring, in ongewone en informele omstandighede, waar jy saam met vriende (oues en nuutgevondes) gesellig saam verkeer, waar niemand jou aanjaag nie en waar jy soveel seekos eet as waarvoor jy lus is – net soos ons langs die Weskus maak…

Kick off your shoes on a pristine and isolated beach at South Africa’s favourite holiday town, Mossel Bay in the Garden Route. Sip some wine, gaze over the ocean and indulge in seafood in abundance! We at De Vette Mossel strive to offer much more than merely perfectly prepared seafood – this is an experience, in unusual and informal surroundings, where you relax with friends (old ones and newly found ones) where your time is your own and where you may eat as much as you like – just like we do along the West Coast.

The excellent preparation of top quality seafood, in abundance, and value for money, is our pride. Relax, wind down – we eat for nearly three hours! And remember, we will never run out of anything – the worst that can happen is that more is on the way!

    Thoroughly enjoyed my lunch at De Vette Mossel during a trip to Mossel Bay. The set up and the sandy floor of the venue makes for a lovely beach ambiance, and the grass parking area is a bonus. The first dish of the day was hot, crisp potbrood with a bowl of mussel meat and a bowl of mussels in the shell. I could happily have eaten just the potbrood and mussel meat for lunch. It was delicious but I paced myself for the coming courses. The second course was snoek with patat (sweet potato) which my brother said was delicious. I'm not a fan of snoek but I did help myself to some patat to go with the potbrood and mussel meat. The seafood pot was very tasty and full of calamari, mussels and prawn tails as advertised and I had a generous helping of cheesy vegetables as a side. I don't eat venison but the meat potjie was very popular with the other guests. To round off the meal, we had cold watermelon and sweet melon, followed by coffee and koeksisters. Being a buffet, guests are encouraged to eat as much as they like. All the food that I had was delicious, and the hostess and staff were friendly and welcoming, making our visit a very enjoyable outing. I will definitely go there again next time I'm in the area, and I would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a seafood meal.

    Dankie vir julle moeite. Dit was perfek van die vriendelike verwelkoming tot die laaste stukkie potbrood. PS en die kilo's wat ek opgetel het met al die kos Johannesburg groete Susan en Elsabé
