Craddled by the folds of the Table Mountain National Park and sheltered by towering oaks and whispering stone pines, The Lawns nestles against the rump of the Table Mountain National Park. With views out across the Atlantic Ocean and the mountain peaks known as the Twelve Apostles, while high above cable cars whisk tourists to the top of Cape Towns iconic mountain. The Lawns is a relaxed all-day affair, with an array of outdoor spaces that take full advantage of this dramatic mountainside location.

    Beautiful location and setting however I thought that service was pretty awful, had to carry on looking for our waiter when we were a table of 15. All in all great place if they can just put some more attention to their service.

    Relied a lot on the great setting without much attention to service or taste of the food. A good example of a lot of show without any real go

    This EVENT Aperol Spritz Brunch was the worst event I have ever been. It didn't match in any way the invitation I got by email. Badly organized, not ready when I arrived, nobody knew what to offer or how/where to seat me. Never felt welcomed, the organisator was only interested in Influencers (who actually only showed up 1.5 h after me). And the nice decorated section was exclusive for them. Food was cold, no taste of truffle and bland. Small portions also and contrary to the offered 3 course menu on the invitation, we only could choose 2 courses... besides sponsored Spritz, not worth R395. No, this event was real shit!

    We only had breakfast which was delicious, without being pretentious, but breakfast is hard to get wrong. The real selling point is the views, which were of course amazing. I would argue that they are best in the morning, but since I haven't been in the evening, perhaps they are even more stunning then?
