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.

Beautiful, peaceful venue with tables under lovely trees. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, but on the day we visited, they were let down by a kitchen which had run out of several key ingredients. We enjoyed our meals and they made a special effort to feed our kids suitable meals.

After having had an atrocious experience at Geelbek before, I was taken here by a client recently and I could immediately tell the place was under NEW MANAGEMENT. Well done and hope word gets out soon that you are on a whole new level!

It is with great excitement that I can inform everyone Geelbek has a new owner. Geelbek has been one of our favorite stops over the years and we are so excited about the new Chef/Owner. Sanparks has appointed someone with years of experience and the food to back him up. They will be taking over from the 1st of May 2018 and we will surely be going back. Good Luck and we are sure you will get Geelbek bact to its former glory.

Stoped here for a milkshake and something to eat. I can’t seem to get my head around what this food house is, cause it does not fit the mound of all the other fancy and excellent Langebaan places. AND the main problem is ... the value for money - it’s poor. I had a small plate of chips that cost me R42.00. Even in a fancy JHB restaurant they don’t charge that much.But the main problem arose when I asked for the bill. Having worked in a till environment before, I think that I am wise to most billing tricks. I was asked to come to the billing screen and pay the amount on the screen, which I thought was way overpriced. Requesting a till slip, I was told that the screen till could not print it and the server had to go inside to get the print out, which, of course, differed by R120.00 from the amount on the screen. Having already had my credit card go through, the server immediately asked if he could refund me in cash, which he took from his pocket. Perhaps a mistake or are you and your guests being scammed?Perhaps you need to take a closer look.

we had a nice lunch and enjoyed the Bitterbalen starter which is a Dutch snack we know very well. can hopefully visit again

We have been to Geelbek for breakfast in the past, being regular visitors to the West Coast Reserve. We were first five customers to arrive, order was taken although they did take the order of 2 other people before ours. Our coffee arrived - but no breakfast. approximately half an hour after sitting down a waiter came to tell us that there were no eggs. My Niece told us that she had overheard the waitress telling the 2 women that there were no eggs about 10 minutes before we were told, but thought she had miss heard it. We decided to leave and in doing so, told a German party at another table that there were no eggs. The waitress then told us that those people would be OK as they only wanted 2 cooked breakfasts and there were 4 eggs left - the ones that we were not offered!! We left in disgust. We understand that the current caterers are leaving at the end of February - seems to us that in all practical terms, they have left already. Bitterly disappointed - had to settle for Wimpy toasted cheese instead.

Tues, 6th Feb .We arrived for breakfast at about 9:15, opens at 9:00, and waited quite a while for a waiter, despite there being only one other table seated.After another pair, arriving after us, had had their orders taken, we ordered: 5 VOC breakfasts, and coffee.We all remarked on the comment at the bottom of the menu about the current contract holders leaving at the end of Feb!The table that had arrived after us left, rather noisily, and one of our party thought she overheard that there were no eggs for their breakfast.Coffee arrived, and we were finished this, some time after the others had left, when a young waiter arrived, and apologetically told us there were no eggs for breakfast. This was nearly 3/4 hr. after we had arrived!When we confronted a more senior looking waitress, and demanded to see the manager, she was apparently not there. We left, without paying for our coffee.This is appalling mismanagement! Perhaps there is more to the contract being terminated - the job is simply not being done.As I am a teacher of Tourism at a high school, I will use this as a very good example of how NOT to give service in the hospitality industry.Another table of German visitors had not yet been informed of the limits on NO EGGS for breakfast. As I speak German, I let them know..
