The taverna

A cosy taverna on Main Road

Striped cushions, whitewashed brick and a fire for the cooler evenings. Sit inside when the wind is up, or outside when Hout Bay plays along.

Start with a few dips and meze for the table (two or three per person is about right), then settle in for the lamb shank kleftiko, our signature dish.
