    This was quite disappointing. I have been to Hey Joe a few times in the past and absolutely loved it. This time, I was less impressed. I took friends there visiting from overseas hoping for the vibey atmosphere and good easy food, but there was no vibe, the music was awful, the food was not great and the service was very slow to start. I assume the construction of flats that I was not aware of, was also why people are avoiding the restaurant, but it has lost its charm. The surroundings used to be so much nicer. When dining in Franschhoek, you want to see the surroundings, not look into a block of flats. I really hate writing bad reviews, but I was quite embarrassed and I doubt that I would return.

    The stout beer was one of the many things we can rave about at "Hey Joe". The service was super friendly and efficient and the food delicious. I highly recommend the ribs! We will be back soon!

    My kids and I really loved this place. The food was great, the play area is very safe and the restaurant is very family oriented. Everything was reasonably priced too
