Fynkos

Outdoor restaurant at Stellenbosch gardens with very good food and drinks which is exactly what you’ll feel like after you’ve been walking around for a few hours. I had a delicious vegetable soup and an egg salad sandwich!

We had lunch here. All our orders tasted good, looked nice and are healthy options. Perfect after a walk in the botanical garden.

Unfortunately not a nice experience as the cheesecake that we ordered was said to have been a baked cheesecake but it was soft and cold. Hardly tasted like cheesecake at all, and definitely not baked properly as there was no crust with texture, it was soft all the way through (including the crust) similar to a fridge cheesecake. The picture makes it look delicious. Very nice venue after a good walk around the botanical gardens, we were just disappointed with our order.

Lovely setting, always very busy. On this occasion, our table was served promptly (and a cheerful server), but some other tables complained. We ordered the scone special. Scones were great, but the serving of cream was ridiculously mean. Rather charge a little more than be so skimpy! Come on, guys!

We stopped for a much needed brunch after spending a few hours walking through Kirstenbosch Gardens and were grateful to be seated immediately. It is lovely sitting outside under their umbrellas with the gardens and birds surrounding you. We ordered the "Light" beef burger and "Light" chicken burger, and thank goodness we did! The Light / Quick meal portion size is more than ample! The burgers were tasty and you are given heaps of chips as a side! Very reasonable prices too!

Great location and good food at this Cafe at Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens

I hadn't visited the tea room at Gate 2 in about 15 years but visited earlier this week - what a lovely experience! From the initial greeting and chat whilst being seated, to the quick service and absolutely delicious meal - everything was spot on! Thank you Fynkos for such a positive experience. I would recommend getting there a bit before traditional lunch time if you are on a schedule - I sat down at about 12pm and my food was served very quickly, but the restaurant filled up fast towards 1pm. The food prices also seemed a little expensive as a local but the meal was worth the treat!

Service is really bad, the waitress took a simple order of 3 French Fries and veg soup but took forever to bring the food and at the end she her self decide to change the soup without even informing us. After calling her (the white waitress) and informing her that the soup is not what we have ordered she admitted that yes she decided to bring us black bean soup onstead of veg soup without coming back to us. Also when the French Fries arrived was cold so obviously it was ready long time but it was not served to us.
