    Super friendly staff, great restaurant and decor and a beautiful estate. We were there fairly early in the day so didn't do any tastings, (pacing ourselves!), although my husband had a delicious iced pineapple drink with some white wine, very tasty. The pork belly roasting for lunch looked divine. Purchased a few bottles of reds.

    We had a wonderful time at Leopards Leap. We had a great wine tasting presented by Luyando. He was very professional and served us well, his knowledge of the wine range is superb. You guys have a gem! Great architecture. Great ambiance. Real treat. I will definitely be back.

    The unlikeliest family-friendly wine farm in Franschhoek. Beautiful lush green lawns, gorgeous outside seating area under the trees, nice little kids Jungle gym and best of all has to be the bicycle pump track! We chose the Rotisserie lunch which has a wide variety of options for the whole family. And of course the day cannot be complete without popping a bottle of Leopard’s Leap Sparkling Wine.

    What an awesome family friendly wine farm. The kids got to play outside while we could have a good time. Great food options with a buffet as well. Lots of tables inside and outside and place to sit on grass outside. There is a little water flow for kids to have fun without parents having to worry. There is also a slide and climbing options! They have a really great hike track for the kids to enjoy!

    We had a group function outside under the trees. Great place for the kids to play in the water fountain. Service was really good. Wine is cheap and very drinkable. Food is well prepared and slightly above average but not cheap. Worth a visit.

    Leopard’s Leap is easily one of the most family- and group-oriented wineries in the region. The restaurant is huge, has an elaborate playground outside and a creative menu with something for everyone. The shop selling local produce and crafts was also a highlight.

    Went for a wine tasting here, and noticed the restaurant was packed.. So if your want to eat here, make sure you book for the restaurant. The wine tasting was quite good. Had a large selection of wines to choose from for your 6 wines. Would go again to try the other wines.

    Leopard's Leap was our final stop in Franschhoek for the day for a late lunch/early dinner. For lunch you can order pizza or chose meat and go to the sides bar. At the sides bar you pay by the 100g of weight of what you put on your plate. Then go get your meet and enjoy. If you have small children they have an outdoor play area that keeps the young entertained while the adults eat and have a drink or two. After some time had passed we walked the grounds, through the lemon trees and rows of dormant grapes. Overall a good final winery visit for the day.

    What can I say about Leopard's Leap. Words won't do this gem justice! What a fantastic wine farm and restaurant. The food was excellent and the wine was great! Deserts was fabulous. Thank you for the great service and experience

    Excellent well priced wines 🍷 and the food is really good, Rotisserie pork belly and lamb neck 😋 plus stunning salad bar with warm and cold selection 😋 service is friendly and top notch 👌😁

  • 5/5 Melanie B. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful venue!!! The food was absolutely devine, we had lamb's neck with red wine sauce and variety of salads to choose from. The flavours on our plate was out of this world!!! Worth every penny! Will definitely be back, save Leopard's Peak under your wishlist*****

    Fine wine. Too bad the kitchen was closed and there wasn't even a piece of bread for the wine tasting. We hope this will be different during the warmer season.

  • 5/5 Georgina Y. 1 year ago on Google
    We are not wine buffs and know very little about wine beyond drinking it... but we enjoyed a great tasting session here, choosing 6 wines from more 30 to sample. The guy serving us was fantastic... sharing his knowledge and expertise of each wine... and spending time chatting with us, making the whole experience really enjoyable. We bought a few bottles as a result. We enjoyed the pizza too. Highly recommend.

    Rotisserie lunch was fabulous - wonderful salads and the Pork Belly was incredible. And the view 😍😍 Desserts looked amazing 🤣 Booking recommended because they got quite busy.

    Awesome place! We did the wine tasting and the woman at the bar was really professional and kind. Great experience and affordable prices.

    Beautiful and modern estate. We had a great experience wine tasting here and the sommelier was able to properly spend time explaining the different products. I was there during a rainy winter day and I’m still glad I went despite not being able to see the grounds properly. Great service!

    Had a great tasting hosted by an amazing and knowledgeable host behind the bar. Bought a few cases. Well worth a vist

    What a wonder experience… we are novices to the wine world and decided to try out Leopard’s Leap Wine Estate for a wine tasting, we were met at the bar by Stephanie, she was so helpful and kind and we enjoyed all her recommendations… What a super star ⭐️ Thank you for an awesome experience

    It is such a beautiful place. We got there just after 3, and it was as if everyone was in a hurry for us to leave. So the service was a bit of a let down. But other than that, beautiful view and great wine and food.

    This is our second visit, we returned for lunch this time. The lunch is well worth it for the price, I rarely eat salad but actually enjoyed these. The pork belly was cooked to perfection. And we couldn't leave without taking some wine home.

  • 3/5 Zim Girl T. 2 years ago on Google
    We visited this place as part of the wine tram experience. Unfortunately no one explained any of the wines or walked our group through the tastings. They just poured and lined up glasses on the bar for us to drink. It's a pretty place beautifully designed.

👍👍 Best spot for a pizza and beer in town. It’s always busy, good to have a reservation, but whenever we went, we didn’t have to wait more than 15-20 minutes for a table. The pizzas are delicious, lot of toppings, lot of options.

👍👍 Pricey but excellent. Great atmosphere and service. Serve meals till 10:30 in the evening. The marrow bones with the steaks are great. Portions are huge. The braaibroodjies are unique. Worth a go. Will definately go back. They have a great selection of meals which are excellently prepared.
