Dating back to 1984 the restaurant at La Petite Ferme has a story that includes the farm workers building the first structure by hand, a devastating fire and a menu that consisted out of family recipes with some of the classic La Petite Ferme dishes still on the menu. October 2015 brought new ownership and today La Petite Ferme promises each guest an unforgettable experience. Focussing on sourcing the best and freshest in-season ingredients grown locally in the valley for a sustainable menu, expertly cooked and plated in a harmonious, elegant yet satisfying manner. Sourcing food locally promotes the local economy, shortens supply chains and creates seasonal options which guarantees quality and freshness. Locally sourced menu items like the vegetables, mushrooms and trout, to name but a few, all comes from Franschhoek itself. The bread and bakery items are baked fresh daily and even the glassware is made from recycled glass. This all aids in attaining a greener footprint. Freshly picked herbs from our garden like basil, lavender and thyme are also incorporated in selected dishes. It offers all the history and nostalgia you expect to find while blending it with a traditional, but innovative style of cooking to deliver fresh seasonal dishes.

    Great venue, view and service! However, does not cater well to vegetarians, only one starter and one main that are noted as vegan (which are both in fact NOT VEGAN - if a chef does not understand that bocconcini (small mozzarella balls) and labneh are made out of milk, I think they are setting themselves up for a challenge these days) - Tracy, our waitress was extremely helpful and was trying her best to accommodate, by asking the chef to produce some of the dishes without animal based products, by leaving off some of the elements. To note, we did specify that half of us were vegetarians when we made the booking via Dineplan.

    Rather disappointed with the food. This was super hyped up and we were looking forward to the best lunch, unfortunately very average. Views were amazing.

    Had a wonderful evening and the food was outstanding! We had the fillet mignot paired with Cabernet Sauvignon and thoroughly enjoyed. We will return for sure!
