TAPHUIS

The succession of ownership through the eras has layered the Estate’s rich history, and present day Lanzerac honours the rich and vast legacy by telling the stories of its past. Created during the Rawdon era, the Taphuis Bar is a place where guests have created many memories. The treacle brown bar has been welcoming thirsty travellers since the 1960’s, and although damaged in the 2017 fire, it has undergone extensive repairs to retain its original feel, with some of the elements that were salvaged from the flames being reused alongside new additions. The Taphuis’ country-inspired décor is rich in texture with rough stone walls, brick floors and exposed wooden ceilings

The gourmet pub-style menu offers sharing plates and light meals in a relaxed environment overflowing with beautiful country charm. The menu boasts homegrown food sourced from local farmers and suppliers, prepared with creativity and originality by the resident team of chefs. Dining options are either indoors set against an impressive handcrafted bar and large roaring fireplace, or outdoors on the shady terrace complete with garden views.

Not open for breakfast

Open daily from 12pm.

For your safety and ours, Lanzerac is a cashless operation.

    We were very disappointed with the quality of the food, all four dishes we ordered had problems, primarily the food was overcooked and dry. The hand cut chips, however, were exceptional. Service was lackluster and really not what we were expecting from the Lanzerac. Not a place we will be rushing back to.

    Superb service and venue Such a luxurious spoil for a casual “bar” Interesting selection of tapas style plates. Worth the visit. Stunning for scorching hot days or cozy for winter evenings
