    The Pizza Shack at the Harties Cable Way has amazing Pizza you can enjoy while looking out over Harties. The opean air seating is great with a play area for kids.

    It was a public holiday and obviously extremely busy. We waiting hours for our food but it was worth the wait. We enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere and view.

  • 4/5 Mathebe M. 4 months ago on Google
    This is a beautiful place to go have a quiet meal whilst enjoying a beautiful view from the top of the mountain. There are various places where one can choose to order their food from. We chose the restaurant (360 Degrees) and regretted it as the food took long and we still had somewhere to go after our lunch. We had to ask that our lunch be packaged as takeouts as we couldn't have it there because we were late for the next item on our itinerary. I think it would be more enjoyable if you have nothing else planned for the day and are not very hungry because that was the longest time I have ever waited for food. They told us it would take about 30-45min but it went way beyond an hour. Overall, we loved the place and will definitely be back up there; try a different eating place, Asado Grill or Pizza Shack

    Wow what a place to be, nothing like it and what amazing views, the menu is great and the food is okay.

  • 5/5 Corey S. 6 months ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere, had some live music. Relaxing. Food was good, had a simple pizza but there are other options. Highly recommend a visit.

    We had a marvelous morning. Even with the rain and wind on top of the mountain, we enjoyed the scenery from the top of the mountain as the fog make it magical.

  • 5/5 andrew j. 7 months ago on Google
    Well laid out location with a great view across Hartebeespoort Dam and surrounds. Mostly open air with a vibey outdoor bar. There is an option to also enjoy the tasty food in the restaurant. Also an option to have a short walk on the top of the mountain. Well worth a visit

    Beautiful and love the improvements made in the last year. But very busy... picture is from our way up.

  • 5/5 Bakang M. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful place to chill with stunning views

  • 2/5 KL G. 10 months ago on Google
    Absolutely disgusting food. Poor customer service the food tasted like the staff in the restaurant attitude... Stink. I will never eat there again. They were rude and treated us like they didn't want to serve us. The older guy at the bar was a true gentleman. He was kind and very respectful.

  • 4/5 Line Jasmin Stilling B. 2 years ago on Google
    View was stunning, it's a quick (7 min) drive to top... Nice walk ways and a few bars on top.

  • 5/5 Sihle B. 1 year ago on Google
    I had an awesome time. Great view and great food . The staff was exceptional as well.

  • 3/5 Evashan T. 1 year ago on Google
    Reasonably priced and great views, however very limited seating. The pizza shack is a better option in this regard.

  • 5/5 Roxy O. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a lovely little bar just as you arrive up at the top of the mountain with the cable car. It's so cute and has such a nice vibe, along with an excellant and very witty and engaging bartender! Once you've got your drinks you are free to sit down with friends and just enjoy the scenery or you can walk around to the other side where there is a lively african band playing lovely music with a restaurant, outside seating and a lawn and play area for the kids. All in all it was a highly enjoyable afternoon and I would happily recommend it to anyone!! All I will say though is that if you are on any kind of budget, then the cocktails can get a little pricey so just take note of that. Not ridiculously expensive though like some other tourist places I've visited, and I do agree that for where they are they do deserve to charge a bit extra, but still just something I felt I had to mention. We personally decided to just steer clear of the fancy drinks and stick to our beer and savanna and still ended up having a blast so don't let that colour your opinion!! All in all we had an absolute blast and would highly recommend it to anyone as a great way to spend an afternoon or a great place to have a birthday party or similar event xx

    360 Degrees restaurant service disappointing. Supposed to be open at 9am only opened doors at 9h40 and the manager was busy briefing/meeting with the staff. This is self service, when collected food and coffee it was cold. However beautiful location and scenery are magnificent.

  • 2/5 Navin I. 1 year ago on Google
    Had lunch for 7 people. Burgers were good. Kiddies meals were good. Self service concept is good and efficient. Ordered French toast. The cream was spoiled as well as the jam. Requested medium eggs for 2 meals. The eggs came well done.

    It was really great, not many places to eat😄

  • 5/5 Pieta D. 3 years ago on Google
    Absolutely amazing day. Fresh after the rain everything was nice and clean yet still a bit wet but we were assisted very promptly, staff is friendly and very helpful. We were welcomed got our tickets and went up all the way following the winding path to the Pizza place. Got a nice table with a gorgeous view and then the mist /fog came in, but it was breathtaking. Food were a special order and cooked to perfection the staff went above and beyond

  • 4/5 Andile M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great views, pleasant atmosphere, good food. Can be a little faster with the pizza (hence the missing star)

  • 5/5 Enica M T. 1 year ago on Google
    Such a beautiful view up there, it's family friendly, my kids enyoyed it to so I would recommend it for the whole family 😁

  • 5/5 Masana M. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful views from the top. They have tents and bin bags where you and family can sit and relax whilst having a bite.

😐 Good outing for the whole family. Though it can get packed. Go earlier to secure a lovely spot. Braai stands available. Dj's available in all the pools. The problem uncontrollable kids in the slides who don't wait for their turn. It would be more nice if they were controlled one at a time..
