Where to Visit

Visitor Testimonials (3238)

Just as many other places in Pretoria, the bar/restaurant is a bit in the middle of nowhere. But it’s a beautiful big space, best to visit during nice sunny weather. It really gives you a beach feeling. The staff is nice and friendly and the music gives you good vibes. From now on for the whole months they have a bunch of cocktails which are half price. The drinks are good and the prices are fair. They also have a food menu. Their fries were really delicious and our friend loved the ribs burger. But my tacos unfortunately were quite tasteless. Would be great if you could add more flavor

So, a beach restaurant in Pretoria. Anyone who thinks there's a real beach here probably also believes in Santa Claus. A bit of piled up sand, a couple of umbrellas, and you have the illusion of the sound of the sea – replaced by 135 bpm for 20 guests who look as if they've gotten lost. The beer came according to historical time, but still it came. The music was loud, fast, and without a concept. And yet I'm giving it 5 stars. Because we're in Pretoria. And here, "pouring out sand" is almost part of the infrastructure. In Bogota it would be two stars. In Berlin one. In New York they would have laughed at you. But here? Here it's almost paradise.

The food 10 out of 10,the service was great and I like that the bill includes the service fee already Atmosphere was good ,I just hope they can improve their sound system...Speaker wasn't smooth . Otherwise I'll go back

This was one of the restaurants on my Google Maps that I saved under my "want to go" list. Me and my fiancé were in the area on the 30th of August and thought let's make a date out of our venue viewing and go have dinner here. It's a beautiful restaurant. I believe I need to visit again in summer so that I can sit outside with my toes in the sand. This evening we sat inside, as the wind was blowing and it was still very cold (especially this evening). The waitress that assisted us were very friendly and made sure we are okay. He wanted to bring us a stand heater but we didn't feel like we wanted one. Thanks for your friendliness, assistance and making sure we are okay. The food and drinks. We drank Hot Chocolate, and it was delicious, it was just right. We decided to share a meal and chose the BBQ ribs. It was absolutely divine! The meat fell of off the bone with ease and it was more than enough for the both of us. We also had a side dish - creamy spinach, which were also nice. In my opinion it was a bit spicy (a bit too much pepper) but nevertheless the food and drinks were very good. I would recommend this restaurant to all my people's and I would definitely visit again!

An amazing place! We came here for a friend's birthday. The food is tasty and filling, and the drinks are superb. The service is great ( our waitress Winnie was a darling). There is also live music and the place is child friendly.

Family vibes during the day, as sunset comes it has the adult hangout vibe. Cocktails aren’t their best trait, the food is good. Kid friendly but the kids get bored after an hour or so cause they don’t have much options for children. Lots of beach sand so wear flops to be comfy. Very nice, relaxed environment. It’s a really long drive from Jhb. If you’re from Jhb just look for another place closer rather. It’s not worth the drive other than a tick off your list of places to visit.

Great place to visit on a hot day. There's a play area for kids and a sitting place where u can monitor your child at all times as they play. There's an inside lounge area for party celebrations, and the bar is diverse. Very clean toilets and great service from the door throughout. Lovely place indeed. Will vist it again soon

This place has a chisanyama vibe combined with a la carte dining. You can have both or choose the one you want. If you want an escape from everyday life for just a few hours, this is the place for you. We went to celebrate a few family achievements, and what I could see was that you could come as a family, friends for a chill out, or a date. They have a whole cocktail menu. They love to experiment. I ate the chisanyama plate that I created myself (yes, the menu has that option). Make sure you get the gravy with your pap. Their gravy is exquisite in your mouth... delicious. The food is amazing, and the atmosphere is out of this world.
