    Great pre-game lunch spot if you're headed to Loftus. Walking distance to the stadium.

    An energetic and fun spot with plenty of TVs tuned into the sports channels, and a variety of social spaces with a terrace, bars, cosy relaxation area and dining rooms. Expect plenty of people, all busy enjoying themselves. The food is basic but enjoyable. This is a great place to watch football or rugby. It will usually be packed on Matchday at Loftus Versfeld stadium, which is just over the road.

    We went to Eastwood for a farewell dinner of one of my colleague. We got there around 2pm and left at 8pm. I didn’t like the guy who was serving us, he goes away for the longest time without even checking us. We also got our food late because of How he was all over. The food is delicious and there’s a great ambiance. The drinks are great too and there’s always a good special for the day. I also enjoyed their music and how the music transitioned from one song to the other. Kuddos to the Dj.

    Eastwood Pub... Eastwood is a chilled spot that attracts a trendy crowd, offering a relaxed atmosphere perfect for unwinding. The pub boasts nice, affordable food with drink combo specials, making it a great value for money. There are plenty of different seating options all around the place, ensuring there's a perfect spot for everyone, whether you're an individual, a couple, or a group of friends. The pub also features screens throughout, so if you enjoy good music or watching sports on TV, Eastwood is the place to be. However, there are a few areas that could use improvement. The pub's large size means that one waiter often has to serve many scattered tables at once, which can result in slow service. Additionally, food can take a long time to arrive, and waiting for the bill can be a lengthy process. Due to these service delays, it can be easy to walk out without paying. Despite these issues, Eastwood remains a popular spot due to its vibrant atmosphere, good food, and entertainment options. With some improvements in service efficiency, it could become an even better destination for a night out.

    Beautiful place to chill out or host your people. With nice food and good music to dance to, if you are majaivava 😜. The service is also great. I even like the fact that when it's your birthday, you get a little something 🍾 from them

    Among the top places to chill, drink and grill in Pretoria. Food prices are reasonable with good specials. Service is good. Plenty of areas to choose to sit, with some areas more crowded (and noisy) than others. The restrooms are clean and well kept. Apparently, you can take away unfinished food, but cannot do the same with alcohol.

  • 1/5 Chloé Jade E. 1 year ago on Google • 15 reviews
    Easily the worst meal I've ever had to pay for. The service was poor and the food took about 40 minutes to arrive with an extra five to wait for the veggie trio which came with cold cabbage.. When I asked for the veg to be reheated, it came back just as cold. The eisbein itself was the blandest thing to ever pass my lips and the skin was nothing to write home about. Not a piece of crackling in sight. The pap was decent, but the gravy tasted like crèche and they were unable to give me fresh chillies on the side. The place is for drunk people with underdeveloped palates and too much money to spare. It was not worth the money. I will not be going back there.

  • 5/5 Mathapelo N. 9 months ago on Google • 26 reviews
    Great place to chill 😎 👌 nice atmosphere. Clean and tasty meals. Good staff. Decor is slick and simple. Air fans with cold water sprays for hot summer days. Great sound with DJs. Have parking, but only 1 entrance and also 1 exit....I would visit again....

  • 4/5 Khothatso M. 11 months ago on Google • 19 reviews
    It is always a good time to go to Eastwoods to chill and unwind. The cocktails are a bit on the pricier side. A tip would be to wait till 16h00 for the specials. The atmosphere is nice, great for pictures. It's a huge space, and each section has a different feel to it. The aesthetics are brilliant. One thing I didn't like, though, was the number of flies we had once the food came. And the menu is so limited, would have loved for more variety. Other than that, I would definitely recommend it.

    We were from church with the family and needed a relaxing place for lunch. Place is spacious, cool, the restaurant part is children friendly and they serve African cuisine.

    This place rocks! From lunch time onwards it is packed. Located across the road from Loftus Stadium and close to the University, the venue is easily accessible by public transport. Ample monitored parking and on-site car wash is also available. The menu variety is wide enough to cater for most tastes. The atmosphere is lively and busy. Excellent for parties and big groups, with two large seating areas. Don't bring the kids.

    Great vibe. Great food and service. But it gets very full in the evening. Oh and I gave it 2 stars because they did not want me to leave with beverages that I paid for. Weird!

    We usually go there with my colleagues for lunch or dinner, I also do go alone for the food. Their service isn't as fast but they have friendly stuff. I love their food and cocktails. Argh!😁🤌🏾, how can I forget their music, I really enjoy being there because of the combination of food and music.

  • 4/5 Suzan S. 1 year ago on Google • 10 reviews
    No one at the entrance for welcoming. Menu was such a turn off because most of the items were not on the menu which was very disappointing. They must just remove the items that are not available. The food was very blend. Super boring. Only 1 starch served with your stew, no veggies, had to order aside. Drinks were amazing. Dessert was not bad, malva was a bit stale but custard was amazing. All in all I could rate this place 3 out of 5. Not forgetting their hubbly price, it is way too much no ways. Looking at the way things were, many people couldn’t order due to the crazy price.

  • 5/5 Jacques C. 1 year ago on Google
    Its absolutely a great place to go. The food for the price is great value, service is quick and friendly and vibes is top notch. Everyone is so friendly. Definitely will be seeing me again. Thanks to everyone who assisted. Keep it up.

  • 3/5 Pontso Bradley L. 2 years ago on Google
    Service was good, venue was also good! Massive in actual fact, would probably go back some other time to explore it. We ordered beef stew and the patron said they do not offer spoons with their meals, only knife and fork, weird!

  • 5/5 Khabo D. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was delicious. This is no tavern. It's a great restaurant. The waiter was a bit offish but I guess it's stress cos the place was so full but very few waiters. Atmosphere is great and parking is safe. I loved this place.

  • 4/5 Tshireletso N. 1 year ago on Google
    The place has enough space/seat for everyone. Enough parking during the game (costs R50, though). The food was nice, and we ordered the rib and chicken platter, which was more than enough as we had to take a doggy bag.

  • 5/5 Oboikanyego B. 10 months ago on Google
    This place is amazing, very clean aswell. Great atmosphere and it's got a vibe, great music, and the service from the waiters are superb. Though it was quite difficult finding a seat but hey, who wouldn't want to be there for some good vibes and cold beers. My only disappoint was the ladies toilets, only 1 toilet was working we had to wait a long que.

  • 5/5 Akhona V. 1 year ago on Google
    I loooove what they've done to the place. Great improvement between 2017 to 2023. It's grown into a proper lounge. Oh yes! I also like that they have an option of hot beverages, which are usually not part of the choices at most lounges. The fire place! The music volume! The sectioning of the types of vibes. Wow.👌. No longer one size fits all, because it doesn't. They understood the assignment.

    You need to improve on your waiters they are very slow .but apart from that everything is good

  • 5/5 Archibald L M. 2 years ago on Google
    I loved it here, a friend of mine suggested we host my farewell party here and it was just the perfect place... I loved the food, loved the service and flexibility. Though overall music quality can be improved, I liked the fact that we didn't have to shout when talking to the person next to you. A place to visit more often indeed. Might just be my daily spot with unlimited wifi.👌🏿👌🏿

    The music was great and unlike before, the music is now nice and loud wherever you sit. Honestly the toilets could smell fresher, if they try hard enough. Otherwise ,great chilled vibe and great music.

  • 5/5 Lunga Z. 2 years ago on Google
    How Eastwood's has evolved over the years. I love and admire how this business has been able to grow and accommodate the change in times and their client based. Still super inclusive in terms of the vast clientele. Their latest revamp of the place is spectacular. It looks amazing. It really is the place to go whether it's for an early lunch, drinks, a night out or watching the eeugny or soccer with the mates.

    Great place to hangout. Prices are friendly 👌🏽. Music is has a good vibe but not loud. Only problem is when it's full, people's voices are louder than the music.
