Absolute gem. Once you walk through the door, you are in an entirely different world. The garden adds to the feeling of bliss. Food and hospitality are excellent!

A hidden gem in Cradock. Forget about the over commercialised eateries - these people know how to prepare food! Freshly baked breads, home made jam and butter. Best boerewors I have ever tasted. All the breakfasts were delicious. Proper ywo group Conti coffee machine. Great service and stunning atmosphere. Owner on premises!

I recently dined at this charming restaurant in a small town, and it left a lasting impression. The modern atmosphere, complemented by warm wood finishes, set a friendly tone. The restaurant's pretty garden added a delightful touch to the overall ambiance. The culinary experience was exceptional. The dishes were not only delicious but also beautifully presented, showcasing the chef's attention to detail. The service was impeccable, contributing to an overall enjoyable dining experience. I appreciated that they have a liquor license, providing a variety of beverage options to complement the meal. One standout feature was the inclusion of fresh baked goods. The Ciabatas, in particular, were a highlight – irresistibly delicious and a testament to the quality of their baked offerings. Additionally, the presence of a vegetable garden added a unique and refreshing touch, emphasizing the restaurant's commitment to freshness and quality ingredients. In conclusion, this restaurant seamlessly combines a modern feel with a friendly atmosphere, delectable cuisine, excellent service, and a delightful garden setting. It's a hidden gem in the small town culinary scene, and I look forward to returning to explore more of their menu.

A very cosy and warm atmosphere. The décor definitely stood out and is typical down to earth, Karoo style. The owners are on the floor working with their staff and friendliness fills the restaurant. Delicious food and drinks. Highly recommend a stop and visit. Perhaps try the litchi-lemon cooler and pizzas.

The place and food were stunning. The service is very bad and made to wait an hour for single Margherita Pizza... the owner of the restaurant, so nice and humble and took the action 🎬 so quickly. Don't want to miss the taste of the food 😋...

Amazing food, but unfortunately the worst service ever.

Had to return! A gem in the little town of Cradock! A must stop on your way to Port Elizabeth or even back to Bloemfontein. The staff are pleasant and so respectful. The food was excellent! Thank you

Loved the friendly vibe and the people people who work here. It is fabulous.

The service and atmosphere of True Living were wonderful, as was my partner's burger - points to be celebrated and appreciated However, the 500g T-Bone I ordered as Medium Rare arrived even more than well done, perhaps closer to congratulations. I ate it regardless, because after driving for hours I was famished and the idea of waiting any longer was not worth it. I hope that this review can be used an opportunity for improvement.

Fantastic homely atmosphere. Outsode seating area in the garden. Lovely food. Very friendly staff.

Great food and lovely service. A lovely little Gem of a find, after a long drive with the family
