    First time visit. The beer was ice cold and the platter special more than my friend and I could finish. Everthing on the platter was flavourful. I especially loved the mozzarella squares and onion rings. Definately worth a go.

    Top tier pub in Bloemfontein with a great vibe, young adult/working class crowd, and great specials. Its hidden in Langenhovenpark (suburb) in a cozy, safe location with ample parking and car guards.

    It's an overall great local neighborhood pub. Good and safe location. Nice and relaxed atmosphere, especially in the afternoon when it's not very busy. Food is great. Mostly good service ... Downsides for me are deafening music, so loud that you can't hear the person next to you. In the winter when everyone is inside, the room fills up with smoke. Big downside is drunk staff from time to time

    Food is delicious and great specials everyday. Waiters are hands on, incredibly friendly and great assistance. Lovely chilled vibe. They sometimes have live bands.

  • 5/5 B D. 10 months ago on Google
    The atmosphere was amazing. The waiters were all friendly and the good was amazing.

  • 3/5 Anton De B. 8 months ago on Google
    Younger crowds above 21 will have a very good time. An excellent band provided live music. I found it very loud at times and it made conversations difficult. Vibe was good though. Excellent staff! Worth a visit but not if you want to catch up with friends. Enough safe parking and reasonably well priced.A gem but know your social needs before you go.

  • 5/5 Kathryn N. 1 year ago on Google
    The staff has an awesome vibe and great pub meals that are value for money. Friendly helpful waiters.

  • 3/5 harry_ N. 1 year ago on Google
    Student relax centrum if you call it that. Loud music..sometimes live..tables outside and inside... Waiters are trained well and very friendly and work very well as a team. BUT... i have no respect for businesses who underpay their waiters and tell them to work for tips instead.

  • 4/5 Kayle R. 8 months ago on Google
    The vibes are the best! The food is amazing, nice specials and very nice staff. I would definitely recommend the place to everyone who asks about it. I loved my experiences I have had there. Would 100% go again.

  • 5/5 Ashley J. 8 months ago on Google

  • 4/5 zizipho m. 2 years ago on Google
    Very beautiful place, friendly stuff, amazing food steak, would definitely recommend it... I just ddnt like that there's no smoking area, people smoke all over the restaurant really ddnt like that.

  • 5/5 strongs u. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent experience and the bar staff were very helpful, fun and it's good for a change to deal with company staff that is just awesome in plain and simple words... knowledge and customer service 👌 Thanks for a great experience 👍 😀

  • 4/5 Chantelle C. 2 years ago on Google
    The waiters are top 👌 the food is amazing, their prices is really affordable, far better than your normal restaurants your used to. The only downfall that they really need to give attention to is the open roof between the restaurant and restrooms, coz when it rains and you need to go to the restroom you get soaking wet (wet hair and smudged make up). Please guys fix this.

  • 4/5 Anzél S. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely place to go on a night out to sit and chat but still enjoy the pub/bar vibe. Had a good waiter, Alrich, (sorry if wrongly spelled) service was friendly and he checked in on us just the right amount of times. Had a blast! Prices are also reasonable :)

  • 2/5 Vibez Dance S. 1 year ago on Google
    Service was SUPER SLOW. Yes it was a rugby weekend... Yes you should've planned accordingly to have extra staff available or have a limit at the door. Great place for normal day 'let's go grab a beer', but clearly not equipped to have big "after party" crowds.

  • 5/5 Charisa K. 3 years ago on Google
    Friendly service, amazing vibe, live entertainment and their pizza's super delicious!!!

  • 5/5 Lisa P. 2 years ago on Google
    Very chilled atmosphere. Not to pricey. The staff is off the very best. Thank you.

  • 3/5 Clive M. 3 years ago on Google
    Been there once only so may have a different opinion on next visit. Music was very loud and made it difficult to chat. I understand this was ladies night with dance floor open so to be expected. Our waiter was fast and efficient so no complaints there. Looks like a decent venue, I think an afternoon visit will influence my opinion positively.

  • 4/5 Glen M. 2 years ago on Google
    Easy access, plenty parking and great sevice!! Did unfortunately not eat. Recommend!!

  • 4/5 Leon G. 2 years ago on Google
    Great vibe, live music on the weekends, tasty food selection and a line-up of craft beers, craft gin and rum if that is what you are looking for (beyond the usual selection of alcoholic beverages) in a social setting. Prices are reasonable too and there is plenty of space in- and outdoors. Lots of free parking, but not the wheelchair friendliest entrance. Wouldn't sum it up as a family restaurant i.e. designed with kids in mind. Fun place to hang with friend or 5 or just blow off some steam after a hard day.

  • 1/5 Emile K. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place for food and drink, just avoid Annika Night as a waitress. She promises to bring a menu, comes back and says she is looking for one, never brings it but parties all night on dance floor swinging her cleaning cloth all over. Had to ask a different waiter who helped us immediately. Then had to at last approach her on the dance floor after leaving her to dance more than two full songs so that we can take our order.

  • 4/5 Ena van W. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice vibe and very yummy food... The service left something to be desired, but the overall atmosphere made up for that
