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.

    I booked ahead of time and was given a tiny table in a walk way near the door. The table was reserved for Tracy. Clearly my table had been given away. The hostess was extremely rude.. told me that was all they had.

    We had an excellent team get-together and enjoyed our corner with the great food while keeping an eye on the cricket. Great place
