Enjoy the flavours, atmosphere and experience of a tasting flight
from the Cape vineyards in the heart of Gauteng.

The Tasting Room is a concept born of a sunny afternoon's wine tasting in the Cape Winelands. It aims to bring the flavours and atmosphere of a tasting experience in the Cape’s finest vineyards to Gauteng.

The Tasting Room offers restaurant-goers in Gauteng the chance to experience a range of tasting flights without the cost of a trip to the Cape. Enjoy a range of tastings - from the more traditional wine, cheese and olives to the unusual, such as coffee and macarons.

The Tasting Room is a concept designed to provide the customer with a novel experience they can't get in their own province.

Our team has a personal love of both wine and the Cape itself.

    Our waitor didn’t pay much attention to us. Someone else had to always confirm what we ordered. The food was cold. Chips forgotten, they came while we were done with the food. Quote disappointing

    The R35 breakfast feels like a scam, what do you mean you have to spend R65 aside for a mimosa. The only breakfast which makes sense is the R89 one. Also, why make a bottomless mimosa special but say “don’t gulp” that’s a whole point of bottomless mimosas

    The Tasting Room Long Pretoria responded on Sun 12 Jul 26:
    Ayanda, I'm so glad you enjoyed the food and felt it offered great value. Thank you as well for sharing your thoughts. Our R89 breakfast is available on weekdays from 10:00 to 12:00 and includes a mimosa, while our R35 breakfast is available all day, with the mimosa offered as an optional add-on. Our Limitless Mimosa experience is designed to be enjoyed at a relaxed pace over the full two hours, and for the safety and enjoyment of all our guests, we don't allow rapid consumption or downing. We really appreciate your feedback, as it helps us communicate these offers more clearly for everyone.

    Plenty food promos and mimosas offers daily. Weekend promotions are great, especially the mimosas

    Had an amazing time at The Tasting room. Food was incredible and they even went out of their way to make gluten free options that still paired well with the drinks. Thank you to all the staff involved

    Corne, this is such a lovely review to read. I'm so glad you had an amazing time with us, and it's wonderful to hear that our team could accommodate your gluten-free requirements without compromising the food and wine pairing experience. I'll make sure your kind words are shared with the team. Feedback like this means a great deal to all of us.
