At the Vine Bistro, we serve flavor-packed classic bistro food with a modern twist, and distinctive, award-winning wines from Glenelly Estate. The interior décor is warm and elegant and includes a harmonious mix of 19th century chairs, classic Parisian tables, a contemporary cellar, a fireplace for the winter, leather banquettes and a traditional bar. Outside on the terrace or under the pergola, long wooden tables, a water feature and plants invite long lazy afternoons enjoying the picturesque views across the fynbos gardens and vineyards up towards the Simonsberg foothills. A warm and heartfelt welcome, friendly and attentive service and a sublime dining experience awaits.

    We had a lovely time at your restaurant, and we simply wanted to share a few small, constructive comments: • The baguette served was unfortunately not very fresh. • It would be helpful to specify on the menu that the dish contains langoustines rather than prawns, to avoid any confusion. • The langoustines were also slightly overcooked; a more delicate cooking would really enhance their flavour. • Regarding the red fruit dessert, it would be wonderful to avoid using frozen berries , fresh fruit would offer a noticeably better quality. These are only small details, but they can truly make a difference in a dining experience of this level. Thank you again for the warm welcome and the beautiful setting.

    We have been loyal patrons of Bistro Glenelly for many years and have always been thoroughly delighted. It is remarkable what the chef continues to conjure from the kitchen, and the service leaves nothing to be desired. Joheide
