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.

    The Taphuis at Lanzerac provided the perfect setting for our business meeting. The atmosphere was refined yet relaxed, creating a space that was both comfortable and conducive to productive conversation. The food was exceptional, beautifully presented, and matched with attentive, professional service throughout. Every detail was handled with care, ensuring that our experience was seamless from start to finish. We were thoroughly impressed and will certainly be making use of The Taphuis again for future meetings and occasions. Highly recommended.
