Located on the biodynamic Rozendal Farm and Vinagrier in Stellenbosch, Good to Gather is a convivial, intimate restaurant owned by husband-and-wife duo Luke Grant and Jess Shepherd. In summer, sit outside in the gorgeous courtyard under the oak trees, in colder months the dining takes place in the Vinegar Tasting Room warmed by a wood burning stove, with views of the cellar filled with the farms botanical infused red wine vinegars. The three course farm to table menu changes weekly, and incorporates seasonal ingredients locally sourced from small-scale farmers.

    It's easier to get into the Magic Circle than getting reservation here! However, it's well worth the effort! We have been in SA for 4 weeks now and it was one of the best meals (if not the best!) that we have had so far. Lovely relaxed setting, reminded me of Greece/Italy. The food was so good! We will endeavour to book for Nov 26 and Feb 27 - its a must!

    Everything about Good to Gather is superb. Even on a cooler rainy day, the atmosphere inside the barn was warm and welcoming and lovely to be in.
