Geelbek Restaurant

The food was fantastic and beer cold, with a stunning location what more can you ask for. Thanks AJ for your excellent service. Looking forward to our next visit.

Took my wife and daughter for Sunday Lamb spitbraai and live music.Enjoyed all of it immensely. Friendly people and great service. Amazing views. History rich.Took a drive to Kraalbaai and even saw some wildlife.

After spending a lovely morning in the West Coast National Park, we stopped in for lunch on a mid weekday.We were disappointed by the way a lovely historic buildings have been spoilt by hodgepodge additions and layout.The menu appeared overpriced, however, as we were hungry we ordered a small bite and drinks. The food and the service were very good, but as expected the food was overpriced. We saved our appetites for a reasonably priced lunch at the Cape Town Fish Market in Langebaan. This proved to be a wise decision.We will pack a picnic or braai for our next visit to the park.

Located inside the Westcoast nature reserve. Perfect to get a cold wine and some refreshments. Service was friendly and relaxed. Great view next to lagoon. Take a walk and explore on foot.

Unnecessarily over priced for the quality and setting. We were planning on eating lunch and decided it seems a bit expensive. Decided to only have some iced drinks and that made us greatfull for not ordering food and holding out for Langebaan.At least the staff was kind.

After spending the morning until lunch time enjoying the West Coast National Park, we were staving when reaching this place for my wifes birthday lunch. We ordered a Bobotie and a Cape Malay Curry. Each priced at R 180 so we expected a decent meal. What be got was almost inedible. The bobotie mince smelt like pets mince and the pumpkin slice with it was like rubber. The rice was obviously yesterday's. The chicken curry was so bland i had to add salt, black pepper and sweet chilly sauce to stomach it. I ate the chicken out of pure hunger but my wife couldn't stomach anything. One mouthful and she was done. We voiced our complaint to the waiter, Collins, whom gave a half hearted apology... No chef or manager came to the table to ask or discuss our issue. The bill came with full pricing and as we were just desperate to get out to real food paid the bill and left. It was a terrible experience and blame not the staff or cooks but the lack of management that allow such shocking food at that price to leave the kitchen. At least the birds enjoyed it as the attached pictures will show

I cannot recommend Geelbek restuarant enough as a food destination (we have eaten there almost every time we come to West Coast National Park) but even more as a potential function venue. We had the idea for my wife's memorial on the lawn near the restuarant in the park she loved so much, the owner Rassie made a fantastic effort to make this dream come possible. Not only did he decorate the lawn area making it private, cover the chairs and tables in linen, made a juice and fruit table available with all the crockery needed he did it during the September the busiest time for the Park with the annual spring blooming. Suffice to say he did all this with a full restuarant also going I am most gratefull to him, the staff and the excellent operation they are running at Geelbek. Well done and thank you everyone.

Stunning location. The welcome was not really pleasant, the service almost non existent and the tables sticky... sorry that is as far as we got. After waiting for waiters who were not really interested, we got up and left. Very disappointing, especially when you consider that many years back I ate the best Malay curry here.

We, 3 lady pensioners, arrived at the restaurant fairly late around 15:15, after a drive through the Postberg area of the Coast National Park, to view the spectacular flowers of the season. We were very courteously welcomed and seated in the outdoor area of the restaurant, ordered our refreshments (a pot of tea and 2 milkshakes), then proceeded to look at the menu to order a late lunch/snack. Sadly the menu does not have very much of a choice/variation, and was rather pricey!! However not having eaten anything substantial all day, we ordered a toasted BLT sandwich and 2 chicken wraps all were served with chips. Despite the food being pricey, it was most enjoyable and very tasty. We were served by a delightful young waitress named Sophy, she was extremely courteous and friendly and needs to be highly commended for her excellence service. A pleasant and relaxing hour at the Geelbek Restaurant and lovely surroundings.

I can't rate the food, because we did not have any. When we arrived there -- just after 3 pm on a Tuesday -- the waiter informed me there was no light food, like toasted sandwiches, to be had. And all the cake has been sold out. The only thing he could offer me, was a BLT at R110, which I thought was much too expensive. But while I was still mulling wether I should not order it for by that time I was fairly hungry, a guest came to the till and complained that they have been waiting ages for their bill. And that every time they ask for it, they got the following answer: "I am not your waiter." We wisely decided to leave and find something to neat elsewhere. Which is a pitty, for this is a really beautiful place.
