Gansbaai Grills restaurant

Gansbaai (4.1 km from De Kelders) Situated on the Main Road in Gansbaai, this cowboy-western themed bistro and pub is a good choice for the hungry. Walk onto the wooden deck, where you can watch the people and activities of the town, through authentic saloon doors and into the restaurant and bar.

Although this is a family friendly establishment, I wouldn’t recommend keeping the children out late at the saloon. Things liven up at night and the bar is especially busy.

Hermanus Seafood restaurant
in
Hermanus (19.9 km from De Kelders) Lemon Butta is located on the first floor of the Village Square in Hermanus. The views stretch over the ocean and all the way to Gansbaai. Diners relish the good food and stunning view; an all-in-one stop! And the great service does not do any harm either.
Lemon Butta has a never-ending menu of quality seafood dishes. If you are the only one in the group wanting to use your canines for the more meaty meal, then you will also not be disappointed. The short meat and grill menu has mouth-watering steaks and tender chicken, or the not-so-plain burger.
With rare flavours like sweet and sour hake, salmon with chef-style teriyaki and mussel and prawn pots – to mention an absolute few – guests will be surprised and delighted with every turn of the page. Phrases like ‘hand-picked prawns’ instantly have guests indecisive and bewildered.
The sushi chef gets his own menu! Try something new or ask for a personal change and the chef is more than willing to indulge. I would suggest a huge platter of freshly prepared sushi with ingredients straight from the ocean.
Call or look out for the regular specials.

11 am to 10:30 pm from Monday to Saturday;
