Silver Orange Bistro

Reviewed By anri_bester - Johannesburg, South Africa

We didn’t book a table, not knowing this is pretty much needed over Sunday lunchtime. We were accommodated and a blanket was offered for our baby to sleep on. Craft beers and good wine list. No salads or light meals unfortunately. All gourmet food but Food needs to be balanced a bit more, the stuffed rolled chicken, and the salmon was a bit disappointing-stir fry only tasted of basting sauce and the salmon was a bit too fishy. Will be back though, best food we’ve had in hartebeespoort!!

Leopard Lodge

The lodge is situated high up the Magaliesberg mountain just below the solid rock face. The downward flowing gorges are softened only by a blanket of shrubs, grasses and trees which have grown over millennia, watered by the purest, cleanest water imaginable and today left to graze on by countless antelope resident on the farm. It is only when you drive in the gate of Leopard Lodge that you realise what has been left behind. The main lodge building houses the reception rooms, restaurant, bar, conference rooms and large verandah with adjoining boma. The lodge has a peaceful atmosphere situated near Hartbeespoort Dam although it is just a short 55km drive from the hustle and bustle of Sandton and 60km from Pretoria. So, pop in for a visit - come and experience our fantastic view of the dam and the valley below - wow! Our restaurant boasts a delightful A la Carte Menu and full bar service is available. We cater for weddings, conferences and functions.

The recent switch to a Sunday A la Carte Lunch Menu is a welcome change. We noticed that more items have been added since we visited last. One for the more adventurous is the lightly seared Salmon with an Eastern Green Thai flavour, delish, a must try. We tried some of the other new menu additions, such as the Roast of the Day, Pork Belly with lots of crackling. Prawns were enjoyed by another two of the party. In all a great day in the sun with spring now sprung. Best part is not having any road noise or a loud band destroying any conversation, just nature at its best with super service and attention.

Siesta Tapas & Bistro

Reviewed By nathan102 - Johannesburg, South Africa

It was quite surprising to see a restaurant with only a few customers on a Saturday evening. The Tapas( Chicken Livers, Calamari, and Mussel pot) was good- rich(butter and cream) and fulling.One would need to appreciate the uniqueness of each cuisine and not make comparisons. The Tapas was not badly priced what so ever.

Beestekraal Stasie

Reviewed By Vince S - Brits, South Africa

Beestekraal Station is a quaint and quirky place on the railway line to Thabazimbi. The shop offers basic refreshments, home made treats and handmade goods. The shop also has a museum feel with a display of old technology in the corner. The restaurant was good too, it is fun to read the messages left by folks who have been there before. I recommend at least stopping here for a cool drink on a hot day.

Chameleon Brewhouse

We are bringing Craft Beer awesomeness to Harties Dam!! Craft Beer Brewery and Restaurant in a tranquil setting under the trees. We are situated on the R104, past the Dam Wall next to Water Affairs. 8 Craft Beers on tap, Bottles in stock, Pub style menu. Pet friendle and child friendly with playground.

Reviewed By Richard H

Had a family lunch on a Saturday afternoon while driving near Hartbeespoort dam. The Chameleon Brewhouse is conveniently located near the dam wall. A brewery where you can get food. Nice touch was a singer keeping us entertained while the food took forever. Beer is made on site, we had some of their lager, was good, cider was poor not recommended. Food took way too long to be delivered but we were saved by the great waiter. Always had a big smile and did his best to make our experience a good one. Overall cost of food is about R162 per person, they serve burgers and pizza. May be a good stop during the breakfast run? Not sure I will rush back.

Mango Restaurant and Sports Bar

Reviewed By JP-Africa - Pretoria, South Africa

The Mango Restaurant is situated towards the end of Broederstroom coming in from the Pretoria side on the R512 just before R3 turn-off.
It is located in a beautiful area close to Hartebeespoort Dam.
There's a nice play area for kids in the garden.
The restaurant itself looks a bit run down and the service was very slow.
The food was not great - ordered T-bone steak medium and got it rare. The chicken was tasty but dry (overdone) - without a side dish of cheese sauce it wouldn't have been edible.
