    It has gotten very expensive!

    Thank you for the review of your recent experience with us at Social Eatery and we are glad to hear that you enjoyed the food, service and overall ambience. In terms of our pricing, unfortunately the cost of raw goods has increased dramatically over the past 12-18 months (eg. cooking oil alone has tripled in price!) and our food and beverage prices are pretty much on par with establishments of a similar standard both in Knysna and Cape Town. Thanks again for your feedback.

    The service was very nice. The atmosphere was not very intimate, more hall like. The food was good

    Great meal in a lovely hotel, we sat outside overlooking their stunning garden, it was a very relaxing atmosphere and the food and service were excellent too.

    Enjoyed our meal very much. Tables nearer the garden are much nicer, not least because the acoustics are better there.

    Fabulous bootie spring rolls and the fish and chips were out of this world. Great service in a great location.
