Begin your day with a relaxed breakfast served in the dining room or on the garden veranda overlooking the mountains.

Enjoy fresh, locally sourced fare and locally roasted coffee in a peaceful village setting. With Franschhoek’s top restaurants just a short walk away, Avondrood offers the perfect balance of comfort and convenience.

Relax in Avondrood’s lounge with a curated selection of local wines, spirits and refreshments available from our honesty bar. Enjoy a pre-dinner drink, afternoon glass of wine, or nightcap at your leisure in a warm, relaxed setting.

Franschhoek is celebrated as South Africa’s food and wine capital, and our recommendations make it easy to enjoy the village’s outstanding range of flavours — from relaxed bites to special-occasion dining. For casual dining on the main street, enjoy a glass (or two) at inVINcible Wine Bar, known for excellent wine curation and perfectly cooked steaks. Let’s Frite is a fun, chef-driven stop for burgers and fries, while French Connection Bistro is a long-time local favourite for generous, comforting French classics. Café du Vin offers a cosy atmosphere, fireplace warmth, and an impressive wine list for those who love a great bottle with their meal. For Italian, Allora serves far more than pizza, with hearty pastas, seafood and vegetarian options.
When you’re in the mood for fine dining, Franschhoek delivers. Try Ōku Asian Eatery and Yama for contemporary Asian and sushi, or book Protégé for polished, seasonal plates in a relaxed setting. Le coin Français offers a theatrical, craft-focused tasting experience, while Eleven highlights hyper-seasonal, sustainability-minded cuisine. For a classic Franschhoek institution, Reubens is a warm, welcoming choice, and Le Bon Vivant is a refined favourite for French-inspired dining.
