...nice Place with delicious food and great music. People eat, drink& dance in a relaxed atmosphere...

Our fourth visit to Cape Town and we always book a hotel close to the V&A Waterfront and head for the Ferrymans. Usually live music there, food good without being exceptional and friendly service. Eat inside or out.

Need I say more ? Ferryman's has a large outdoor seating area, friendly servers, and live music in the evenings.

We met up with friends for a few drinks. The waiters are very friendly and warm. We had a lovely evening and enjoyed the music.

I met my work colleagues after the gun run yesterday at ferrymans as we have done every year for the last 6 years. I'd like to complain about the service however there was none.Firstly we had to go and find our own menus after asking 3 waiters for a menu. We the. Asked 4 different waiters to come and take our orders but not one came and helped us. Secondly, by the time we were helped by a waiter we were informed that it was now too late to order from the breakfast menu so we had to order from the lunch menu. Now comes another delay in waiting for menus, again we had to fetch one on our own. In this time {about 1 hr) no one even took a drink order from us. Eventually we order from the lunch menu and a few minutes later the manager arrives and informs us that its too early to order lunch food as the chef will only start that at 11am so there will be a delay. His attitude was absolutely disgusting, looked so confused about why we were complaining. We are normally a group of around 20 people and spend good money there however never again. Next year we will find anywhere else but here to frequent.

We were there on a busy Saturday, the waitress was busy but managed to provide reasonable service..... the ingredients were fresh, the food was well presented and tasty. My husband had the nacho's and they were like no other nacho's I have ever seen..... very tasty.... we will be back.

Came here with family - all adults on the first occasion was one singer who was catering for a party we enjoyed the dance but some of the music near the end was random and unable to dance too. The second time we came it was 2 guys singing with guitars and they were amazing sung songs I was aware of made the bar lively. The cocktails were always good loved the passion fruit daiquiri and pina colada.

Our twins went with 11 of their friends to Ferrymans for a drink to celebrate their 18th birthday on Saturday 05 October 2019 at 19:00. They had a reservation at another restaurant in the Waterfront, so they only wanted to have a pre-drink at Ferrymans. They sat upstairs where they were one of three occupied tables. The restaurant was not busy. After waiting 40 minutes for their drink to arrive, they realised that they are going to miss their second reservation. The Ferrymans waiter was rude to them when they asked how long they will still have to wait. He said to them: "Can't you see I am busy". They missed their second reservation because of this. Restaurants must treat young adults the same as grown-ups - their money is just as good. Ferrymans messed up their pre-drink 18th birthday celebration. They and us as their parents will not be back at Ferrymans. There is enough restaurants in the Waterfront to choose from where we can get good food and service.

The place has an outdoor seating area with a view of the waterfront flyer. The food we had was generally quite poor. The peppers in the Greek salad were soft and mushy. Chicken strips were dry, the accompanying blue cheese deep tasteless.The seafood platter was awful and I send it back. The sauce on the mussels had a crust and the mussels tasted off. The fried calamari were soggy, the line fish over cooked and at that point I did not even care to try the prawns.After talking to the manager I received a burger. The seafood platter and the burger were not on the final bill. I appreciate that service and therefore not an awful rating.The beer is good with a selection of local crafts. Live music provides a lively ambiance.The place is a pub. Go here for beer, drinks and live music, definitely not the food.

We were there on a Saturday night and the atmosphere was electric, the DJ/singer/entertainer was very, very good and kept us there for 3 hrs longer than we planned. The food was good but like all Waterfront restaurants the alcohol is expensive,
