Somerbosch

Atmosphere was great, food really good. Nice warm wood fire on a cold day. Cosy and laid back

What a great find! I really enjoyed my pasta meal an the wines are VERY well priced. Became little breezy under the trees but that too was pleasant on a warm day

Lovely place, new favourite! Had the calamari starter which was prepared really well, friend had the cheese platter. They even had some beautiful sunflowers to buy for R8 each!

First time visit...great place seating under beautiful trees. Good food and great service. Do yourself a favour and give them a visit. You need to book though.

Great spot for breakfast or lunch. Under shade with good food and decent wine. The Kilyx red is a gem. Very unique 3 redwine and icecream pairing that actually compliments each other amazingly. Nice open spaces for kids. Strawberries seasonal on sale from farm.

Have been there yesterday after 3 months...very much looking forward to our beloved calamari salad..we had ordered 3 main portions of it and have been so disappointed...the salad was laying powerless on the plate, the paw paw was cut in very thick slices and the complete salad dressing was so salty, we couldn't eat it. Have asked for new salad, received one plate of green leaves, nothing else...no deduction on the bill...not even a free coffee. Very disappointing. Shepard was very friendly as usual and to sit under the big palm is always fantastic...but we will have to think, if we will go there again. There are many restaurants around...

Pleasant relaxed atmosphere with friendly staff, good food and wine.

Amazing wine, great setting, gourmet food and very good, personal service!!!

Excellent place, delicious food and always perfect service.

Service was terrible from the kitchen. I went there this afternoon. 7 people. Arrived 1.15pm food came at 3.20pm.
1hr wait between starter and main course. Left at 3.45pm. Their signature dish was duck. Overcooked! Yellowtail was the line fish and was also overcooked. I believe there needs to be fewer tables because obviously the kitchen cannot cope and everybody had lengthy wait times. When I informed the manager. She replied with " well u had starters".
I will never be returning.

Big hats off to the team at Somerbosch, top-notch service with a smile. Very welcoming, accommodating and professional. 10/10 would recommend. Keep up the fantastic work.

A great venue. Eating lunch outside in the garden is just lovely. The food is absolutely outstanding and they have a nice selection of craft beer as well. Definitely worth the visit

Shady under palm trees, good, inexpensive food and own wines

We went there for Fathersday lunch. It was simply the best. From the hostess that greeted us by name, to the waiter the really knew the menu. He had some great suggestions.

We will definitely be back.

Just perfect! My first eating out since March was most delicious and memorable. Perfect food, perfect service and perfect ambience. Thank you

Beautiful garden. Food was delicious. Service very good. Wines excellent.

What a relaxing experience. Reception warm and friendly. Food excellent, good wine and reasonably priced. Will visit again and again.

Because the owner lets her dogs off the lead when you're not supposed to and they put something weird in the burgers

Lovely setting. Very popular so best to book. Owner/manager friendly and very hands-on. Quite busy for Sunday lunch lots of big groups so food a bit slow but was offered complimentary coffee because of the wait. Food nicely presented and tasty.

Don't expect to be served food between 11 & 12 the kitchen closes for prep.

Good coffee reasonably priced.
Lovely outdoor tables really well spaced out.
Toasted sandwich was enjoyable, but soup overpriced.
Friendly helpful staff.

Lovely lunch out under the trees but the service was very slow.

Fantastic food and very friendly staff and good portions .Sitting under the trees is so relaxing

Atmosphere was great, food was delicious and starff were friendly.

A bit of a surprice, very good and plesent lunch. Great setting under the trees, well done to the somalier Gustav for taking the time to come to our table and introducing the estate wines to us. Highly recomend the Rose.

Excellent food and a pleasant place to spend an afternoon. I had an exceptional trout. The service was great.

The wine is well-known for being a grand quality. Special mention on their red blend, which has rich body and a low tannin level.

Good wine and crispy duck with veg.Who could ask for more!

We visited as a large group on the 3rd of December had an awesome time. Food was amazing and the wine was superb the best I have had this year. To the Chef and Winemaker and proprietors of Somebosch all I can say is keep it up.

A beautiful place to have lunch but the owner's dogs don't enjoy canine visitors so I wouldn't recommend you bring your fluffy friends. Service was friendly but slow.

Delicious food, beautiful garden under palms good light wines

Excellent food, picture perfect Boland setting. Friendly service. Good, inexpensive wine....which is rare to find.

Sommerbosch is (almost) still an insider tip. An absolutely adorable little winery on the R44 between Somerset West and Stellenbosch. Delicious, honest food and once the wine !!! The boss is awesome. You feel like home. The rest of the crew is just adorable. At the appropriate seasons, there are probably the tastiest strawberries and the most beautiful sunflowers for sale. Please do not tell anyone!

Lovely place between the vinyards and strawberryfields. Wonderful food, friendly and efficient waiter. Delicious strawberries at a very good price.

Excellent place. Good food. Good service. Good price.

Peaceful garden setting under trees for a good weather day.

Delicious food, great service, stunning wines and fabulous owners. Will definitely be going back again.

Lovely venue under the tree. Had a great breakfast and the staff were awesome. However, the garnish was somewhat disappointing in that it was not the freshest.

Idyllic setting in the vineyards outside Stellenbosch, with a view on Table Mountain that is great. Outside seating under the lush trees are pleasant and cool. The food is of top quality and well priced.

Kitchen closes at 4pm even though they advertise 5pm closing everyday.
I've been here for wine tasting and ice cream pairing which was nice but i will be back for their food as i have only heard good things and i love the atmosphere.

Just had a fantastic breakfast. Friendly staff. Thank you for your excellent service.

A great ambiance and hospitality and very good food and wine.

THE place to enjoy a day out with family and friends, not to mention delicious food and amazing wines to pair with..most probably the most famous place for their Calamari Salad and Crispy Roast Duck !!They even do functions like birthdays and Weddings ..#happiness@somerbosch

Always a party .. champagne breakfast .. good to be here again. This is coming home.

We had a lovely breakfast in pristine surroundings at the Bistro. Good service.
Would have given a 5star review.....but the only valid complaint is that their Cuppchinos served must be the smallest in town. Please get bigger cups!

Good wine, terrible service... Young girl had no clue about wines whatsoever and refused to open a bottle for tasting.

Awsome setting and views but patience is required. Service was and remain an issue. Waiters needs training.

Really nice place, but shocking to stop serving brekkie at 11, and lunch only from 12!? We were so hungry after our ride and had to settle for a coke instead. Always amazed with these kind of decisions restuarants make..

Great experience good coffee after bike ride on the trails.

Base for our MTB rides. Provides parking and open bineyards to cycle. After ride coffee and light meals.

Really enjoyed the wine tasting! Bought four bottles seeing as they were so reasonably priced.

The best food at the best place. Service unbeatable, atmosphere always nice. An unpretentious experience. The wines from the upper shelves, prices very good for high quality wines. Their champagne / MCC is my favorite.

Friendly staff, great food, awesome atmosphere and ambiance. Great mountain biking with Adrenaline bikes on site.

Service was slow and not very professional!!
Waiters looked very tired, and not focused at all! Ronel was absent!! Suppose weekend off!!

They're not too concerned about alllll the lockdown restrictions, if you know what I mean...

We had a big family breakfast at Somerbosch on a hot January morning. The venue offers seating under huge shade trees where it stays cool and pleasant. Social distancing is easily maintained with tables well spaced. The croissants with either salmon or black forest ham were excellent and service was friendly and efficient. Somerbosch is very popular with cyclists because it is a good starting and finishing point for mountain bike rides. Somerbosch offers good value and I strongly recommend it.

Most welcoming atmosphere, so relaxing & the calamari salad is to be recommended with a Sauvignon Blanc or Chenin Blanc. Delicious!

Brilliant service. Excellent value for money in supporting the locals. Thumbs Up!

So relaxed and beautiful with the friendliest owners and staff. My favorite place

Sterling service and absolutely wonderful food and abundant wine.

Great breakfast, open farmimg restaurant. Must be one of my best surprising breakfast experiances.

Lovely wine & ice cream pairing for R70. They are usually very busy and reservations are recommended.
More staff is needed to satisfy demand.
It just felt a little rushed.
Service was good and staff is very friendly and the pairing was very pleasant and flavourful. Their wines are always very good.
They also sell massive sunflowers for R8 a flower.
Would definitely recommend it!

Lovely lunch setting with a big garden. Not as many kid activities as I remembered but they loved playing in the garden. Squid salad was amazing best thing we had.

Place to visit if you want to have a early morning breakfast under the trees. Each breakfast also comes with a complimentary coffee/tea or juice which is a bonus. The food was great and the staff were friendly. Would visit again.

Seasonal menu that always delivers amazing flavour and wholesome goodness. Great wine and a wonderful atmosphere.

Good food, service was a bit slow. Chairs were quite uncomfortable.
