We have had breakfast here a couple of times while traveling between Knysna and Cape town. Every time we have been a bit early before they opened, and every time they invited us in to sit and wait inside and wait for the kitchen to open. The food is good and the coffee is warm. Wonderful view out over the bay.
Most beautiful setting right at the water. Best fish and chips we have eaten in a very long time. Superb. Drinks being milkshakes were the real thing. The best lime milkshake was the feedback from the wife. The Chocolate shake was also great. Service was prompt and professional. Food arrived in good time. Prices are also very reasonable. Highly recommended.
Always a good visit. Very relaxing in an informal setting away from the hustle and bustle of life. You just gotta try the breakfasts. Big plates and delicious.
Fresh seafood on the harbour. Lively rustic ambience. The food is fantastic and well priced. Breathtaking views of the bay and Outeniqua mountains to the north. The yachts drift by. It feels like you on a boat.I can highly recommend it.
I like the place. Great view across the harbour, friendly, helpful staff. Food is most times good!!
Been there in this week.You have to comply with Covid regulations. Sanitize masks ect.Found that waiters and patrons wearing masks.Except the staff in the kitchen preparing the food.🤦🏻♂️. Worrisome at this stage of pandemic.
Nice place to go and have a delicious lunch with friends and family. Service is great, their nice and friendly and you have a great view of the ocean while you sit and eat. Would recommend to anyone in the area.
Nice place,good food just the Manager/Owner needs some stress training.
Food and service was great, they just needed more comfortable chairs.
The best spot ever. We have never been disappointed. Delicious fresh seafood, friendly staff. Our one stop restaurant always...
Good foodWell pricedOn the harbourGreat view
Relaxed Atmosphere, Friendly staff. Great quality food for excellent prices.#1 Place for Breakfast... Brunch, Lunch & Dinner choices from menu are all exceptional !!
Lovely atmosphere at this beautiful restaurant! People where feeding the seagulls and made that a truly excitement for kids watching. The food arrived and wow was that a treat! The salad was a little bit of a let down, but the other meals were amazing! Waitress was super friendly, bathroom were clean and plenty of parking (may just have to walk alittle). Thanks for the great dinner.
Great place for seafood, fish and various basket options. Portions are generous. Staff are friendly and efficient and the tables along the edge get great sea views.
Delicious seafood, the calamari is to die for.
Old favourite.Still good value and good menu.
Scampi and Sundowner baskets was delicious, well prepared and portion size was sufficient, relaxing vibe, beautiful view of ocean, service and staff very helpful, will definitely visit again 👌
Beautiful, friendly environment, i ordered a hake and chips and was blown away by firstly the portions and secondly the culinary experience. I have never in my life had the pleasure of eating such a wonderful fresh and tasty meal as what i experienced at The Sea Gypsy Cafe. This establishment was recommended through a friend and i am so happy i experienced this, will definitely see you again when in Mossel Bay
Great seafood, service and setting
Everytime we go there we enjoy ourselves. Went back for the hake kebab. Will do so again.
Always a treat and very good seafood. Well prepared fresh food. Prices are very good.
Best ever fish and chips . Great location by the harbour on the watere edge.
Always get great meal there, if you like fish, very pleasant staff, always have a joke with them.prices good and delicious. Great to feed the seagulls with any lest overs, remember it has been covid for long time ,few visitors to feed hungry birds, DONT HAVE TOO.
Great food at a very competative price. A nice harbour feel and good service.Only issue could be the small ablution facilities and also no play area for kids.
Amazing service and friendly, genuinely nice staff. Awesome ambiance with a view over Mosselbay , Diaz, Hartenbos cove over the ocean. This view only improves when its dark. The starters were flavourful and aromatic, but the mains were average.
This restaurant has exceptional food, great value for money, provides excellent local wines, magnificent views. Love this place.
Food less than average, especially the chips and mayonnaise. With relative high prices. Impression that place is not clean., because it is so old? .....maybe not our style....Will not go again😒
Lekket place with sea view and a view. Service is good and friendly. Food nice.
Starter creamy mussels are not worth ordering. The sauce is thick and lacking any flavor. Main dish was line fish (butter fish) with calamari. The line fish was ok but the calamari was too crispy.Hake and chips ordered by the rest of the group was a hit. Maybe stick to the most popular meals.
It gives you a rustic beach side feel. Nothing fancy but you can really sit and relax. Every body writes on the walls and tables and a lot has re visited therefrom all over the world
The service was great and staff very friendly. The food itself was tasty and decent portions. The view is adventurous, love sitting and looking at the boats and birds. Would recommend.
Wonderful experience...tasty food friendly service.
Nice vibe, food a bit greasy.
The Fish basket was delicious while the view over the turquois water was stunning
This place is unique and a must try when you are visiting Mosselbay. Great fish & chips, good prices, stunning service and authentic sea restaurant atmosphere. I love the blue wooden benches and the beautiful scenic view over the bay. Have been here many times over the past decade when we were visiting and have never been disappointed. And then to watch the hartlaubgulls playing in the wind - an absolute treat!
Love the place stunning views and great customer service
This little Gem of a place is one of our favourites. They always have such friendly staff and their service is 5⭐It is also very good value for money will definitely recommend them anytime the atmosphere is so relaxing and the views are breathtaking, will surely be visiting them again next time when we are in Mosselbay 👊👍
Quay side seafood speciality restaurant with bar. Delicious food. The basket meals offer great value for money
Lovely food, great atmosphere
From Mosselbay to Danabay, for those that want to explore, be safe, never walk alone, always take pepperspray with, dont talk to strangers not dressed as trailrunners or hikers, be weary of the ones that would like to know the time, dont carry too many things of value. For the area from Mosselbay point to Pinnacle point security hut, keep your distance from strangers, peek ahead, when you reach the Pinacle point controlled access point hut, you know you are safe and you can enjoy the rest of the route. This is the safe area. Take at least 1.5l of water for this route, dont forget the sunscreen. Please press the like button if this review was of any assistance to you.
Still as good as I remember.
Very good food and friendly staff. Their prawns are the best. Second time weve visited and will surely go again
Love the view and service,,, the food is great and fresh out of the sea, even the seagals cant get enough.
Big portion for a great price.Food was very good. By far the best calamari I have had in a while. Service was fast. And the view of the sea was fantastic. Highly recommended
The staff were very friendly. The food was delicious. We had grilled hake and chips. They were just right. The chips were delicious, crunchy on the outside with a soft Centre.
Great views, and good value for money, the waitress was amazing and made us feel.welcome
We spent a lovely morning here. There was a place for kids to play, so we had a peaceful morning.
Always a good idea. Foods great.
Perfect food, great view, excellent sraff
What a great experience! The food was delicious and the scenery awsome. Friendlyness from the moment you enter the restaurant. Will definetley visit again.
Seafood is really good and staff attentive.View is awesome, feels like youre on a boat.Tables could be wiped down a bit better and floors cleaner but otherwise really good.
Food fresh and huge portions.Friendly service... Super atmosphere
Very comfortable dinner spot. Fresh fish. Few bones. No corkage fee!
We drive all the way from Oudshoorn for lunch here its amazing!!!
This place is plain but so good. Its way better than next door cafe gannet for half the price. The food is really good and so is the service
Friendly staff. Good food. Lovely location. Reasonable prices.
Just loved the experience. Fantastic breakfast. Beautiful view!
I loved this place. Theres a specific look they went for, old, rundown and 1920s feel of the coast and they kept it. It does give yu the feel tjat you are in transit. Serving were big and the food was great
Nice cozy restaurant on the breakwater - right by the sea. Great view. Tasty seafood. It’s as fresh as it comes. Be sure to cool down wjth a dive into the water
The Sea GypsyFood is great, service van be improved!
Since I first went to mosselbay back in the days, couple of years ago. I find this very nice and cozy restaurant. Since then I make a point of it to visit them each time I am around. Nice food, nice people and awesome view
Brilliant food, service with loads of character at very affordable prices. Do not miss out if you are in the area.
Good food end excellent service
It was awesome to visit there the first time .
Good quality seafood at very fair prices, but what I found impressive is their position right next to the water
Great food n good service
Wonderful view,service was excellent and thats all. Food to oily and to much batter. Please look at that because you have a wonderful and place to relax.
Good service & food.
Love this place.
