Find out what Bar restaurants to try in Eastern Cape. The Eastern Cape is a province of South Africa. Its capital is Bhisho, but its two largest cities are Port Elizabeth and East London. It was formed in 1994 out of the Xhosa homelands of Transkei and Ciskei, together with the eastern portion of the Cape Province. Landing place and home of the 1820 settlers, the central and eastern part of the province is the traditional home of the Xhosa people.

The Rat & Parrot

The beloved Rat and Parrot is the best-known pub in Grahamstown. We serve amazing food, from juicy steaks to scrumptious pizza, and of course, the coldest beer in town. A place of many special memories and exciting new beginnings.

Reviewed By SciRad

The pub is large and if sport is your thing there are screens everywhere. But it also serves great beer and very good steak. Pizzas were ok. They have a large wood fired oven. But I’ve had better. Crusts are thin and crispy but too much rubbery cheese for me and it’s not fresh mozzarella which might be rather harsh given where we are! Great service though. Really friendly people and efficient too. The steak was amongst the best I’ve had.

Known for its wholesome selection of hunger-buster burgers and locally crafted beers, I was pleasantly surprised to also have the choice of a selection of hearty, healthy Buddha bowls. My friend and I chose the salmon Buddha bowl (also available with tuna, chicken, fillet, or just plain vegan), and we were presented with the freshest, largest bowl of pure yumminess! Great value for money at R85 per bowl, packed with cous-cous, lettuce, cabbage, carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, brussel sprouts, beetroot, avocado, and your choice of protein).The daytime fresh sea-breezed vibe, seated at one of the balcony tables was the perfect setting for my sea-deprived Joberg visitor!Not avid beer-drinkers, we opted for a glass of Tranquille, a perfect pairing for the dish, and ambience of the day!I love the shabby-chic Balinese-style decor of this beach-bar with its wicker-wood loungers and colorful string of lanterns. It’s quite hard to believe that this very bar that seems to cater for the older crowd in the day, transforms into a nightclub, catering for the younger crowd, at night! The loungers are swept aside, and the dining area becomes a dance floor after 10 at night.Great location, great food and drinks, and great atmosphere, will ensure that this place is a keeper in a very volatile restaurant market in this particular spot in PE!

Had dinner at The Muller House after reading reviews on Tripadvisor. We were not disappointed. Despite a few rowdy, inebriated Springbok supporters left over from the earlier World Cup final, we enjoyed the informal vibe. The pork belly and kudu burger were superb and service from Josh was great. Well worth a visit.
