Nestled at the foot of our majestic mountains, in the leafy suburb of Newlands, Cape Town, Foresters Arms Restaurant and Pub (fondly referred to by the locals as Forries), is one of the oldest pubs in South Africa and provides the perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life.

Its welcoming ambiance provides guests with the opportunity to sit down, relax and enjoy a fine draught beer accompanied by a delicious meal selected from our varied gastro-pub menu.

    Always an amazing experience and great pizzas at Forresters Arms. I can only recommend, but I would advise on using Uber or carpooling as parking is tight.

    Another enjoyable visit to Forries, as always. This time we were a group of 7 and happy to say that service and everything else was up to the normal high standard.
