A real local gem in the area of Blouberg. One of the oldest buildings in the area and a recognised heritage site. This restaurant is located right on the sea front and the building has being preserved well. The food is great and after a good lunch, take a walk along the beach or wonder over to the rocks for a bit of exploring.
