Mill Hops - Swellendam

While crossing Swelledam, we decided to stop for breakfast, and it turned out to be a great choice. We really enjoyed both the meal and the atmosphere, which put us in a good mood. The waitress was incredibly friendly and attentive, and the food was excellent. It was the perfect place to take a break.

The hospitality here is fantastic. The short stay includes a lovely, quiet room, which is followed by a wonderful breakfast. Jason makes the best flat white in the city. Wynand and Ilze, you are amazing. Thank you for the enjoyable conversation!

I enjoyed cake and tea with a woman and her niece. The atmosphere was very cozy, and they even built a lovely fire for us. The prices for the food were quite reasonable.

Excellent food and service. our waiter jenine was great. we had lamm curry, it was from this world.

We visited the restaurant at Mill Hops in Swellendam, it looked quite inviting from outside. The garden dining area was what sealed the deal for us as we have little kids. We arrive just after 11am but they were still kind enough to accommodate us by serving us breakfast after it had ended. The garden area was very neat and looked stunning. With multiple levels and the kids play area up top, we went straight for a table next to the kiddies “jungle gym”. It seems you can bring your pets there as well as a family walked in with their little dog. The menu is a little pricey but this may be due to the venue also being accommodation. We ordered the R86 breakfast which came only 1 toast, bacon, 2 eggs and a slice of tomato. I have to admit though that the bread was amazing, not your average toast/bread. The eggs were done to perfection and the bacon was nicely grilled and not oily. The food, in short, was fantastic quality. So the price was justified. The kids ordered the kiddies chicken nuggets and chips, these were also great. If you are worried about the price, it’s well worth the food and the setting is really stunning on a good weather day. I would recommend the restaurant, we would definitely go again. The entrance has steps but they also have a wheelchair option.
