Midweek dinners under the stars, Friday nights with friends, special occasions celebrated in style, and a delicious breakfast menu – join us for a memorable dining experience in the heart of Plettenberg Bay.

The main dining room sits in the oldest part of the hotel, in the original building constructed in 1777 as an army barracks for the Dutch East India Company before being converted into an Anglican rectory in 1869. An exquisite, centuries-old stone wall adds warmth and character to the space while the building’s heritage inspires a bistro-style menu that draws on Dutch, English and South African influences.

    A wonderful evening at The Old Rectory. Vuyo was our server and she was friendly and interactive. The food at Restaurant 1777 was outstanding, and the menu was interesting and creative. The renovated building has been done with caring attention to all aspects and the design is welcoming and timeless. We enjoyed the lovely cosy fire place and sitting area for sherry before the meal. Highly recommended!
