Very nice bar vibes, and great music but does need to change their music every so often. Same music every weekend. But lots of fun either way!

Always a great catch up place with friends and always bump into someone you know. Drink specials are awesome 2 for 1 encourages you to buy for someone else too 💚

Long running awesome Tableview chillout. Friendly people and the owner Kay is super efficient and knows most people by name and what they drink. Great spot!!

My advice would be to never visit this club, tonight (Friday 10 September 2021) was my first and last time there. The bouncer was extremely disrespectful and unfair. The location is ideal but the staff are completely out of line, especially those working in front.

I love Thursty Turtle! Always a good vibe, its easy on the pocket and there is always lots of fun to be had! Whether its during the day for a chilled drink or at night for a jol, there really is something for everyone. I met my husband there, so ladies, theres hope! The bartenders are friendly and accommodating and if you have any issues, the owners are 100% willing to sort you out. (bonus, its pet friendly during the day)

Drinks are cheap, and its a good place to gather with the mates and have a great time. Loud music and often full. Toilets arent the best though

Review №32

Small bar but a lot of fun. Thursdays are buy one get one free between 9-11pm its seriously good fun as the place gets very social. Smoking is allowed inside. Not really a place for kids, more like a place for parents to go for a great night out before some dancing along beachfront. Quite popular during the summer months when tourists are visiting. Only downside is that theres only one bathroom and it gets revolting when its busy.

Review №33

I am biased as this is my local spot. Best value for money when it comes to booze here in Blouberg. Does not serve food so eat before you go. Jukebox with hundreds of thousands of songs. Everyone is very friendly and I have never seen drama happen there. Definitely worth a visit.

Totally crab venue where all drink brandy specials till they wobble and there are fights and i mean continiously , think if i was back in my 18 to 21 age group possibly would go , have to que for drinks that is if lucky enough to catch 1 of 2 bar ladies eye , definitely would not recommend , the only good thing about the place are the bouncers that keep the drunk crowd in some sort of control !

Review №48

Very crowded, almost no place to stand or dance. The bar is always a struggle because people tend to sit there. There are couches but be prepared to wait for a open one or you should go early. If your going to chill with a few friends it can be considered. But you have no view of nothing basically, so if you dont like small spaces, and warm smokey air thats your perfect hangout

Great little pub with friendly staff and pumping music. Drink prices are very reasonable, but expect to wait a while for bar service on busy nights. Be warned that it is a smoke friendly bar, so if you not a smoker or dislike smoking, this place probably isnt for you.

What a horrible place!Bar service is slow.Music is way too loud. The DJ also cant seem to make up mind on what to play.Bathrooms are always filthy and cant handle the demand of the massive crowd in this small place. People actually go the the bar next door for a cleaner bathroom with shorter Qs
