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.

    It was my daughter's 18th birthday and we decided to celebrate at Foresters Arms. We all loved the relaxed ambiance, food and the friendly staff. Our waiter was so welcoming and friendly and my daughter had a great birthday celebration. Thank you!
