    I have often stopped there for light breakfast or just a good coffee or latte. It's always great quality, value, atmosphere and vibe. Beautiful location with a stunning view and good service. Always a winner.

    A place to just let go and be. Ally & I had perfect brunch in Hermanus at @justpurebistro where we once again experienced a sighting of the end of another rainbow. It has been said that we choose our experiences in life, this must be a sign that we have chosen a happy place with only hood things to come On arrival @alexxandrasparrow captured a few whales playing off the shore. The sardines & poached chai, latte & scones served were just pure joy. What more can you ask for to make the beginning of your weekend just perfect 🥰 We miss our friends & loved ones around the world and can't wait to host you here. This is the perfect place to #justwhoosah #hermanusheals #purebistro #sardines #chailatte #justwhoosah #rainbow #endoftherainbow #whalesplayingoffshore #lekkerplaces #lekkerexperiences #WhoosahWesternCape @travel_south_africa_

    Nothing beats lunch with a view!! Such a great vibe. Can't wait to come back. The coffee and chia latte were out of this world! The cafe mocha was hands down the best I've ever had! Warm roast vegetable salad! Oh my goodness, who would have thought! AMAZING 🤌🏻

    Amazing eggs on toast. Good croissant au beurre (according to a French) The location is perfect if you want to see whales while having breakfast/lunch. Remember to take your binoculars ;)

    Our second day having breakfast here and cannot find fault on both occasions. A very good breakfast menu. The omelette is the best ever and French toast also perfect. Expect a bit of waiting time but well worth it. Very clean and friendly service. Highly recommended.

    I love just pure. I’ve been eating their amazing chicken salad since I was a little boy - would definitely recommend. Their breakfasts are also very good. I love the eggs benedict (I add bacon which makes it even more delicious). Just pure has a breathtaking view of the ocean. Their prices are also quite good. I would definitely recommend popping in at the gift shop to treat yourself or a buy a last minute gift.

    We were in the area, and don't know any good breakfast spots. So I googled, and found this one was the closest. The photos and reviews looked great, but unfortunately didn't match our experience. We sat outside for about 10 minutes, before neighbors got up and left. They said they've been sitting there for a long time, and no one has come out to attend to them. So we got up and went inside to get a waiter's attention. A male (presumably the manager) came out with some menus, barely greeted us. He took our drinks order, and disappeared. We must've waited for almost 25 minutes, for 4 coffees. Then a female waiter took over. She came to our table a few times, taking our food order when we were ready. Our food didn't take too long, and it was at least warm and delicious. The female waiter was nice, and made sure we had everything we needed. General opinion. The restaurant clearly caters for the tourist market, considering a smallish croissant with scrambled egg and bacon is R105 and 2 slices of sourdough with 2 poached eggs and 2 pieces of bacon is R140. In my opinion, it is overpriced, and the service is too slow. I still don't know if the male is the manager, but he needs to pay attention to his attitude towards customers. In that industry, a rude attitude will definitely chase away customers. The food is good though.

    You won't find better lunch in Hermanus and surrounds. The freshest of ingredients is used to make the most delicious food. The service is excellent and space cosy and beautiful. Can't recommend this place enough!

    Delicious beyond compare. With a view of Whales playing about and the lovely sea air. Friendly and prompt service. Making the visit so Hermanus worth it.

    Very nice place overlooking the ocean. I had the gluten-free toasted sandwich with cheese, tomoto and basil pesto. Was tasty.

  • 1/5 Simone 9 months ago on Google
    Food is well-cooked, portions don't match price though. Excellent hot drinks. The Black Staff are wonderful. The white woman with short hair is RUDE and seemed to go out of her way to ruin the festive Sunday vibe. Wow. Also, she really shouldn't be waiting tables. It was awful.

  • 4/5 Deborah W. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was fresh and tasty. Service a little slow. Prices are high for a local, but the quality of the food and the view makes up for it. Gift shop is a nice bonus.

  • 5/5 HAYLEY H. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing place. Be sure to reserve your seat as it is extremely popular. Just on the fringe of the town, away from the hustle and bustle. Perfect view of the ocean. Owner is friendly, thoughtful and customers do really are put first here, cater for Vegans too! Staff are wonderful. Breakfast was tasty. You won't be disappointed.

  • 1/5 Coral-Lee W. 1 year ago on Google
    Not suitable for vegans. Very poor service from one of the waitresses, she had the audacity to ask for a tip off of an R80 bill which she didnt provide much experience or pleasure to since there were no available vegan options as mentioned on the online menu which is outdated. She also clearly doesnt know that in hospitality you NEVER LEAN over a customer. However Beautiful venue and the front of house staff in the products section were friendly.

    A very beautiful gem. I really enjoyed my meal; tasty and fresh. I even spotted a whale while having my meal which was a cherry on top 😊 I had to bring my partner a take away and he loved his chicken burger. The staff was friendly. Thank you for the lovely service.

    Great bistro with excellent food. How hard is to make a fry egg? They managed to make it "Perfect". The breakfast was superb, great mushrooms, fry tomatoes and sausage. The bacon was good, perhaps not as crunchy as I like, but excellent nevertheless. Down size ? The coffee. The cappuccino was a coffee with milk, nothing close to a cappuccino l. The coffee was weak. Prices are in the higher-end, but the service, quality of food and view (just infront of the whale coast) justify it. Recommended.

    This place turned out to be the perfect breakfast place for us. Huge variety of food and freshly pressed juices. The staff were fantastic. Located on marine drive with fab views of the bay. Definitely worth a visit. The owner was a lovely lady with a wealth of information on where to visit in surrounding towns, the whales common to the area, how to get a taxi. She was brilliant!

  • 5/5 Forenji 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing views, excellent food. Note the service does take long here and is part of the experience so not a great option for a hurried meal but good choice in town for a relaxed sit down meal/coffee and view.

  • 1/5 Kate R. 2 years ago on Google
    I was not impressed by the service or food I received at The Bistro. Our family decided to enjoy a quick breakfast at this beautifully located bistro, but we were highly disappointed in the experience we had. The service was very slow and half of our family ended up leaving early.

    Great view. And super cheesecake with a delicious cup of coffee. Very friendly waitress

  • 5/5 Janet van A. 2 years ago on Google
    Quality food and generous portions is their claim… and they’re true to their promise! The sourdough rye is superb. Breakfast seems to be effortlessly served within 10 minutes of ordering, served on hot plates and by friendly staff. It’s a bonus to be overlooking the ocean!!
