Description

Perched above Harold’s Bay, this coastal gem offers sweeping views, a cozy fireplace, dog-friendly seating and memorable seafood—hake, calamari, mussels—and famously crisp fries. Many praise friendly, efficient service, reasonable prices and a lively atmosphere, though experiences vary: recent guests report inconsistent food quality, bungled takeaways and occasional unprofessional management. The vistas and warm ambiance keep diners returning; best to book ahead and expect occasional service hiccups on busy nights.

The staff definitely seemed full of themselves, carrying an attitude of being too important for anyone else. They were fake and inconsiderate, especially towards those who weren't wealthy locals or individuals who felt entitled to behave however they wanted—being loud, disruptive, and talking over other tables. If you, as a customer, brought up concerns about this behavior, you were given two options: either put up with it or leave. Overall, it was a real disappointment.

I absolutely loved this place! The view is stunning! The waitstaff was knowledgeable about the menu and offered fantastic recommendations. Our food arrived quickly and was incredibly tasty. The burgers are the best I've ever had. I will definitely return to this spot!

Very friendly owner, chilled atmosphere and delicious cocktails to enjoy a last drink after a long day on the Garden Route. Perfect spot when you’re looking for a restaurant with bar around George. My favourite cocktail: The Blue Smurf. Service: 5

We came for dinner yesterday as walk-ins. After some minutes we got a great table on the upper deck with an amazing view. The food was outstanding! We got the prawns, the hake and the seared tuna. Everything was fresh and delicious. But what is more outstanding is the service! Thanks to the staff for a memorable dinner ️
