    Lovely to sit on the deck! We enjoyed the menue for 695 ZARvwith additions from the kitchen. Lekker! We brought our own wine (too many bottles left for a few more days in SA), corkage was 80 ZAR which we felt was ok. We can definitely recommend Melfort and it is not as crowded as the popular places like Ernie Else.

    We have enjoyed several meals at Melfort which is located in a pretty, peaceful setting. The food is presented beautifully, tastes wonderful and is best enjoyed unhurried. There is also a lovely wine selection. Service is also very good. Nick and the Melfort team always makes us feel very welcome. Highly recommended.
