TAPHUIS

The succession of ownership through the eras has layered the Estate’s rich history, and present day Lanzerac honours the rich and vast legacy by telling the stories of its past. Created during the Rawdon era, the Taphuis Bar is a place where guests have created many memories. The treacle brown bar has been welcoming thirsty travellers since the 1960’s, and although damaged in the 2017 fire, it has undergone extensive repairs to retain its original feel, with some of the elements that were salvaged from the flames being reused alongside new additions. The Taphuis’ country-inspired décor is rich in texture with rough stone walls, brick floors and exposed wooden ceilings

The gourmet pub-style menu offers sharing plates and light meals in a relaxed environment overflowing with beautiful country charm. The menu boasts homegrown food sourced from local farmers and suppliers, prepared with creativity and originality by the resident team of chefs. Dining options are either indoors set against an impressive handcrafted bar and large roaring fireplace, or outdoors on the shady terrace complete with garden views.

    We had a family dinner for my daughter's 20th birthday and it was the most amazing experience! Our waitron was excellent, very professional and attentive. The staff even brought my daughter the most beautiful dessert with a happy birthday message on the plate and a handwritten card! We will definitely be back!

    A wonderful taste of South Africa in an iconic setting. Excellent service and ambiance and food and of course wine! The skilpaaidgies, skaapsterrjie and braai board were exceptional!

    Sadly it was a very average, bland, underwhelming meal! And completely overpriced for what we got! Fatty wagu babootie, pork belly was a huge portion and a smattering of a vegetable and peri peri chicken was simply average! Incredibly disappointing - we eat in Stellenbosch all the time and will never be returning!
