During a visit to the West Coast National Park, my family and I stopped at the restaurant for a quick bite and ended up eating a two-course meal. It was simply delectable. Our server, Hilda, was excellent and the Geelbek restaurant will definitely be on my list of West Coast restaurants. Right now, I would assign it Top-of-the-list status.Great food in a beautiful setting!

Large car park and plenty of seating with umbrellas outside. We didn't go in the restaurant but did walk through the building where there's large trees with weavers birds nesting, making quite a noise. There's a small shop to buy snacks and drinks. It's location is at the south side of the National Park with a information desk so very valuable to learn more about the area and which part you want to visit if short on time.

This place has a captive audience of people in the park. It’s a lovely setting and a perfect spot for a family meal but the quality of the food is average.. and the service is slooooooooooow and unorganized. Beers are warm, meat is tough, and although we had ordered a kiddies meal as soon as we arrived (for obvious reasons) , it arrived after all of the rest of the food was ordered and delivered. Definitely won’t be stopping here again.

After taking family around the park my toddler got hungry and I didn't foresee us making it to langebaan before total 2 year old meltdown. On first appearance the premises looked nice. Relaxed. Live music. I ordered a kiddies meal the minute we sat down and explained it was urgent. It ended up arriving LAST, after all the adults mains. Food was very, very mediocre. Over priced. I ordered venison pie that was far from fresh. Oily. Full of grisel and bones with old salad leaves on the side. Waiter was friendly but slow and not very competent! Had to continuously ask for the same thing and remind him to bring our drinks etc.Overpriced, very mediocre food but a nice setting.

I stand under correction in that the restaurant is the only one in the park so our choice of lunch venue was somewhat "restricted" but nevertheless I can happily report that it didn't disappoint. I had the mussels and my wife the bobotie and both plates were cleared :) The waiter was extremely "friendly" and attentive. Yes, I agree with some of the comments of other reviewers that the pricing is a little on the high side (considering the restaurant effectively has a monopoly in the park) BUT it was value and the venue and cuisine did live up to expectation.

After having visited the Postberg Nature Reserve to view the flowers and wildlife recently with friends, we headed to The Geelbek Restaurant for lunch. We did not know what to expect as we have not visited the area or restaurant for many years. We chose the buffet and piled our plates with succulent roast Lamb, roast potatoes, boerewors, salads, vegetables and delicious braai-pie (pastry filled with bacon, cheese and spinach) braaied to perfection! We also ordered Geelbek's famous Pumpkin Pie as a side dish with fresh cream. It was delectable, spicy and light. The homestead is historic, rustic and charactful and the garden filled with bird life. The staff are also friendly, efficient and polite. I will definately return with my family and friends! Dawn, Lee-Ann and Matthie.

On three different occasions - within about a 3 year period - we have found the food utterly disappointing and nothing like the OTT self-promotion on their web page. Yesterday's fare was the last straw: the signature dish 'bobotie' was uninspiring and served with frozen carrots, and the crab cakes were nothing like the description on the menu. This place is only good enough for chips (fries). And what a waste this is in this beautiful nature reserve, so, if you visit take your own food and avoid Geelbek.

What an improvement since we were here 3 months ago! There is new ownership and it tells! Food and service were very good! We will come back!

After having visited the West Coast National Park to see the wonderful spring flowers we stopped off at Geelbek on 10 Aug 2018. What a pleasant setting close to the Lagoon & very popular with mountain bikers as well as birdwatchers. The service was great & we tasted some of their well renowned milktart. The whole setting is very pleasant , you can sit outside in the sun , on the grass , under umbrellas or inside. There is also an area where the kids can play.

With a great big play area complete with slides and swings this was a great stop for lunch in our way to see the flowers at Postberg. Nice diverse menu with local offerings. Good friendly service to go with tasty well prepared and presented food makes Geelbek a worthwhile stop whilst in the West Coast Park.
