Time Out says

The idyllic and one-stop destination of the winelands in Stellenbosch Spier Wine Estate is now home to Veld, a restaurant that showcases the flavours of South African cuisine through timeless cooking methods and seasonal ingredients. 

Nods to South African flavour can be seen through the menu, from the springbok loin with rainbow carrots and citrus jus to the rooibos ice cream with honeycomb served with shortbread.

What's on the menu?

With all the dishes made from scratch, diners are spoilt for choice. The grilled Karoo lamb cutlets are served with a vibrant and fresh salsa verde alongside braised fennel and confit tomatoes, creating a dish that envelopes your taste buds in flavour.

For meat-free eaters, the Kashmiri masala cauliflower steak, served with hummus, toasted almonds, and coriander yoghurt to balance out the spicy kick, is a stellar option.

Adjacent to the restaurant is the Wine Library, allowing diners to peruse Spier's award-winning wines.

How do you get there?

Travel time from Cape Town City Centre to Spier is:

  • Approximately 1 hour 23 minutes via the N2
  • Approximately 1 hour 25 minutes via the N1
  • Approximately 1 hour 33 minutes via the N2 and M12

Why go?

The restaurant has a firm commitment to regenerative farming and sourcing from local producers. Fresh produce is sourced from their on-site gardens and beat to the rhythm of the seasons, ensuring that only the freshest ingredients are used.

All the seafood is sourced from Abalobi, a company that is pioneering sustainability in the seafood industry and empowering local fishermen. Abalobi sources only non-endangered ocean species through ethical fishing methods.
