The wine and cheese pairing was very nice in the beautiful tasting room and friendly staff. Had lunch but regarding the food it is quality and not quantity. Small portions but delicious. Just a pity of the bad service that we received from our waiter. Otherwise nice day outing! The sweet pairing is also very nice. Six wines and nice treats
Best place for parents and kids you can really enjoy the time while kids play.
Not to be missed if youre around, lovely wines and weekends break away to this spot can be most enjoyable
Fabulous reception from the lady allocating the seating, views spectacular also of the Branson farm. They couldn’t get my steak toMedium but the environment made up for it
We had a great experience in terms of tasting wine and eating.We were nicely hosted in the tasting area and well served with awesome food. Besides we had fantastic support with our little daughter in the kids play area.The prices are very reasonable and the winery is just worth visitingThe mushroom tagliatelle were some of the best pasta dishes Ive had in years and the fillet steak was just divine.Definitely and highly recommended!
Very easy relaxed feel. Staff knowledgeable about the product. Attentive. Would recommend. Food fresh and tasty, very pleased. A must do.
Great experience, I recommend trying the wine and chocolate pairing testing.
Did cheese and wine pairing and had lunch afterwards. Food very delicious but portion was very small. Friendly staff at cellar and restaurant, but our waiters service was very poor. BUT we love your Chenin Blanc wine.
First time visit on Sunday. Love the place, yummie food and atmosphere was great. Child friendly, awesome service from Shasta and the staff in the kids play area. Thank you guys, will be back 😊👍.
Waited a long time to be received and seated. After about twenty minutes waiting at our table, no waiter and no service. Customers at the table next to us said they placed their order for food an hour and a half ago and still received nothing. We eventually got up and walked out. No waiter or staff member questioned us. The table was also not ckeaned fir us before we were directed to the table. No appropriate covid control at the table in my opinion. Cant comment on the food or wine.
Portia at the tasting room is the best wine tasting hostess. She made our experience so amazing! The wine was at perfect temperature and the sweet treat pairing was wonderful on the pallet!I would definitely recommend the sweet treats tasting at Franschhoek Cellar with Portia!5 stars.
Very disappointed. Ruined our entire wine tram experience. Made a booking. Seated by the hostess. Sat for over 15 minutes without anyone serving us. Eventually got up and left.
Shasta is a gem, nothing too much effort.Good wines, good food and comfortable setup.
The service was good. Its child friendly which is very good for the whole family with child kindred while parents are enjoying themselves
I went for the 6 wines and 6 cheeses tasting.... they serve 3 white wines first and used fresh glasses. When it was time for the 3 red wines they reused the white wine glasses that still had some of the white wine in it...
Our food was delicious and very well priced... BUT the service that started off well worsened as the lunch continued (no salt and pepper or enough cutlery on table, same meal ordered by 4 of the guests but 2 had sauces missing off their plates). By the end of the meal we had our empty plates in front of us for a half hour before having to beg someone to come and help us and just give us the bill (didnt want to dare coffee or desert after that).
Lovely hospitality and great wine selections. Wish they sold the chocolates in small pieces and not big slabs. The variety was absolutely delicious!
This one of the beautiful cellars in Franschhoek valley and a really nice restaurant. Best food and wine you can get . Do you a favor to visit this beautiful place and you will enjoy it.
Enjoyed the Blind wine tasting activity as well as the great food and hospitality. Very spacious garden and patio area for dining and inside the cellar the atmosphere was amazing. Compliments to Merle and the staff that hosted our group of 9 colleagues on 12 Oct 2019. Will be sure to recommend this establishment to everyone I know.
Wines were great but service was very average. Seemed like we were an inconvenience on a cold day. Great venue though. Find a good seat and settle in …
Was looking for a few bottles of wine for my father.When entering the gate, I was approached by a friendly security guard who swiftly guided me to a parking spot. Another then drove me with a golf cart up to the cellar.The lady at the wine tasting area was super friendly!She assisted me in finding the best possible wine for my dad.Thank you! 👍🏼
Had a blast!!!!
I got married in the Mountain View Venue on the premises. I had the best experience. Thank you for all the incredible staff at Franschhoek Cellars. From the security to coördinators. You made my day extra special and stress-free.Thanks to the chefs for the amazing food.We also stayed on the premises at the Rose and Protea cottages- it was beautiful and so comfortable!!Last but most certainly not least-Chanel (events coordinator), how can I ever thank you enough for seeing to all detail and making sure everything run smoothly! You are amazing at this job!!I will definitely highly recommend this venue.Thank you!
Very nice place to go with family. Nice food and drinks. Great kids play area, its very safe and child friendly.The only downside is that its very close to the main road and you can hear the noise of the cars the whole time.
Nice place
Had a fantastic wine and cheese pairing. 100% recommend a visit. We visited 3 vineyards in the region. This was the best for a tasting experience.
I went with my kids and after a long drive, they were willing to play before sit and eat. I left them in the play area, which is very nice but the waitress was pressuring me to order something. The thing is that we went for wine, cheese and chocolate tasting and those are inside, in a way that I could not take care of my toddlers while tasting. I liked but felt uncomfortable with this lady.
The involved lady watching the kids in the play area, the convenient golf cart from parking lot to front door, friendly waitresses and delicious value for money meals made for a delightful afternoon experience.
Good placing for people with children they have a playground. Burger its tasting and big. Good prices also!
Nice place for a wine tasting. Try the wine tasting either with cheese or chocolate!
Good... very good. A little slow on the service side.Good quality for money.
Commercial and non-personal experience. Devoid of any atmosphere and a stark contrast to the surrounding outstanding wineries in the region. Avoid.
Nice place to go with the family. Kids can play whilst being well look after by the staff. Excellent food also.
My favorite spot by far! Food is fantastically prices and never disappoint. Service with a smile, great wine, only spot in Franschoek that caters for kids. Over and above the splendid views, enthusiastic child minders and fantastic food, the atmosphere is unbeatable. This is a must for people with kids, well done guys!
Truly a hidden gem in the winelands. Thoroughly enjoyed the pinotage tasting and may have found a new favourite in the stone bridge. Wish the restaurant had been open, but definitely coming back to give it a try. 10/10, would recommend with out a doubt every time.
Really great experience. Friendly staff, reasonably priced.
We went for a Burton 6 wine tasting, undrinkable and not significantly cheaper than the other great options around. Would recommend to my enemies.
Great Family All-Rounder. Very nice play area for the youngsters, and a solid menu (average pricing). Nice views of the mountain from their newly built area (the platform).
Amazing food and biig SUPERVISED play area for the kids. The wine is not the highest range but overall experience is top 10 especially with two boys between 6 and 12.
Today, my family and I went to visit this establishment, as we spent a few days in Franschhoek, and this was one of the places recommended, with a play place for kids.We went and were told the restaurant was close, as there was a wedding today and we could have wime tasting only.My wife wanted to try the wine tasting, while the kids played. One of the waiters told us we could sit in the area, where the wine tasting was, at table 30,if can recall, as it was closest to view kids playing in play area. It was a bit warm inside, so we went to move, just opposite, to the tables outside, then were told that we cant sit there, its reserved for the wedding guests, but no obvious reservation signs nor reserved anywhere, while other guests sat there as well. We then moved back inside, to same table, I went to two ladies, clearing up a table, nearest to the wine tasting area, and asked that we be served, she said where we were sitting they do not do the wine tasting there, but its in the same area, I advised her, the previous waiter guy ,said we could sit and he would attend and she continued to say they dont do till there and if he wants to do it, its on him.What bad service, no apologetic manner of speaking, no we will make a plan, as the wedding taking up seats outside, where, clearly wine tasting was offered.We left this sad establishment and will never be back, nor recommend it to our friends or anyone we know.Attitude truly sucked and is rather sad, as we have had good experiences at the other restaurants we spent time at on our stay.Your establishment put a damper on our visit there.
Lots of options. Good price. Very nice people. Great experience.
Amazing place- great food, great wine with a great space for the kids to play!
All the wines taste the same. Service is slow. Food is okay, but not worth the calories or effort.
Great childrens play area with childminders to truly allow you to relax and enjoy your time. Food is good and reasonably priced
Great atmosphere and food. Nice children play area.
Lovely Cheese and Wine Tasting and Biltong and Wine tasting, well versed in the nuances of the various grapes and wine.
If you like fruity wines this is the place for you.
Amazing cheese/wine and chocolate/wine tasting. Our watron Portia was great.
Always lovely. Child minder hetta is amazing and 99% of the reason we go back
Great food. Love the golf cart. Great kids area
Great wine tasting experience. Friendly staff with humor and good wine tasting advice. Good value for money.
On a hot summers day there is nothing more fantastic than getting a chance to condu t a wedding in an aircondioned wine Cellar. This is an awesome place to do a wedding and what amazing views and service.
Lovely day spent with our very special friends from abroad. Beautiful area to take visitors.

Great wine and cheese tasting, incredible wines and their new restaurant called The Platform is superb. Great setting for a wine and lunch experience second to none in Franschhoek.
Lovely day and safe and awesome spot for the kids to play.
Absolutely amazing! Pinotage pairing highly recommended
Excellent service, very helpful stuff, my two years old son was busy in playground for whole my lunch so I could enjoy it peacefully.
The restaurant and tasting rooms are well situated as you enter Franschhoek. Beautiful garden dining areas with great views and plenty of space for kids to play, including a supervised play park. There is a good selection of dishes on the menu and a kiddies menu. Plus a good selection of wines at very reasonable prices. Slow service, on a quiet weekday, from a patrionizing waitron spoiled our experience. The spacious tasting room has great spaces, a wide selection of wines and friendly staff.
Great kiddies play area, super for meeting friends over good food!!
Nice play area for kids. Excellent food as well.
Very good place restaurants easy to found
Great place for kids as it has a lovely play area. A little pricey
