    We enjoyed our time at the Millhouse Kitchen! We did get coffee in the end but we did think they could've made a plan with bottled water for tea and coffee! But a lovely meal with an excellent waiter! Thank you!

    For a well-known and breathtakingly beautiful destination like Lourensford, they can do much better with their restaurant. It was honestly one of the most disappointing and underwhelming meals I've ever had in the Western Cape. The only thing that was good, was the non alcoholic beer that came from a bottle. Calamari - sad; hand cut fries - sad; tiramisu - sad. All of those were highly recommended by our waiter. The price is steep in comparison with the quality. Come on, Millhouse! Make South Africa proud. Up your game!
