    The best fried hake and chips I ever had, compliments to the chef. Beautiful setting, very nice surroundings.

    What a pleasant discovery! Spookfontein Restaurant deserves to be highly recommended. The restaurant is an elegant space filled with natural light and beautiful views of the valley. We decided to pair our lunch with a wine tasting with five wines of our choice and were again pleasantly surprised! We shared the Yellowfin Tuna & corn salsa with an Asian dressing as a starter, and had the beef fillet and beef brisket for mains - all beautifully presented and with delicate flavors. Our waiter recommended the Tunisian orange cake for dessert - every spoonful a delicious treat. We will spread the word!
