Partner content: Family-friendly relaxed dining at central Stellenbosch Kitchen

Located within a five-minute walk of the centre of Stellenbosch, Stellenbosch Kitchen offers locals and visitors alike a relaxed atmosphere in this vibrant hub. The restaurant operates in a national monument building that previously housed the very popular Jan Cats Restaurant and Bar, established in 1987. It’s been transformed into a cosy spot for families and friends.

Diners of all ages will find something on the menu, which can kick off with a breakfast buffet after a night at The Stellenbosch Hotel. Indulge in flapjacks with maple syrup; a croissant with scrambled eggs, bacon and Grana Padano; or a full farmer’s breakfast. Lunch sees several options, including a soup of the day with homemade ciabatta; ale-battered hake with hand-cut potato chips and mushy peas; shepherd’s pie made with Karoo lamb and topped with Grana Padano mash; and prawn risotto. All dishes are prepared with the freshest seasonal ingredients primarily sourced within 50km of Stellenbosch.

Of course children are sorted at Stellenbosch Kitchen too. Love the Monster Burger? Let your little one delight in the Youngster Burger. It comes topped with onion marmalade and Gruyere cheese. Else they can opt for the battered hake with hand-cut chips and mushy peas, or the Napolitana pasta. For dessert they can choose from freshly made ice creams and classic milkshakes.
