Our Guests are invited to enjoy complimentary tea, coffee and a daily freshly baked cake, available throughout the day. Whether between activities or during a quiet moment on the deck, its pure indulgence designed for unhurried enjoyment.

Unwind at the La Fontaine Bar & Lounge, a relaxed and elegant space at the heart of the hotel. Enjoy a curated selection of local wines, cocktails, and light refreshments in a warm, inviting setting that connects seamlessly with the hotel’s gardens and lounge areas. Perfect for a pre-dinner drink, a quiet afternoon glass of wine, or a relaxed evening in Franschhoek.

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.
