Its a great place to bring your whole family or a romantic dinner for two, or for a team building excercise. There is so much to do here; craft beer tasting, gin tasting, chocolate tasting, dining out, mountain bike trails, great views, kiddies play area and so much more. Definitely worth a visit. Definitely recommended. Well maintained and very clean.
Great place which honestly doesnt feel touristy at all, enjoyed every minute of stay. A great place to spend some quality time with nice views and great food. Brewery, distillery, ice-cream shop, coffee roastery, winery, what else would you want? Ok, theres a fantastic cheese farm just 200 metres across.the only thing which is missing is a place for stay for the night
We enjoyed the chocolate tasting but there is also wine tasting and biltong tasting apparently. The food was delicious. Large portions. Pricing was better than expected for the calibre of venue. Will definitely go there again. Amazing milkshakes too. A great day out for couples, groups and as a family.
Great setup. Me and my clients enjoyed the restaurant Devon and his staff perfect. Just the beer tasting we couldnt do because we were told by Candice if we one min later than 16:30 than no beer tasting with a pretty good attitude. I would avoid Spice Routes in future thought we would have been happy to see international guest returning.
There is so much to enjoy at the Spice Route in the Paarl winelands. From a fabulous beach bar at Wilderer (what a surprise!) and delicious farm-to-table lunches at Jewells, one can easily spend a day here exploring all they have to offer. Coffee, chocolate, wine shop and more! Whats not to love about this world-class destination? #visitpaarl #paarlwineroute
This was my first time visiting Spice Route and I had a wonderful experience with my friends. We arrived at about 3.45pm and so had limited time to get round the huge range of activities available as they close at 4.30. We did however manage to do the chocolate and gin tasting.Our gin tasting experience was phenomenal because of Duanes service. He was patient while we decided which option of the tasting we would go with, served us in a timely manner and graciously agreed to take geoup photos of us. He is so personable and a true embodiment of what customer service should be!We had pizza and fries at La Grappria. It was delicious!I also had a cocktail and it was once of the hugest ones I have had and the price point was quite decent.The location has amazing views also so it is an all round amazing experience!I would definitely visit Spice Route again.
Gorgeous views of the berg while sipping on a sumptuous hot chocolate!
So nice to have all these delights in one place: tastings of beers, wines, spirits, chocolate, icecream! And of course nice food and sitting at the fireplace. Friendly service as well.
Great place for lunch. With excellent choices of foods, drinks and more, all located in one place. Weekends can get quite busy so make sure you phone ahead to make a reservation other try going during the week for a great afternoon lunch, staff meeting. Take a blanket with to relax on the lovely green grass in front before heading back to town. Free parking with plenty disabled bays, the place is wheelchair friendly. Highly recommended.
Stopped off at the graparia for an afternoon drink. Great grapa, great view, great service.
Amazing chocolate tasting experience! My school of 25 kids and 3 teachers thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the amazing taste of their chocolate!
Something different. Wine, beer and chocolate tasting, 2 x restaurants, kids friendly. Highly recommended
What a great gem this is. Nestled on the hills of the Paarl winelands with breath taking views. They offer wine tasting, beer tasting, chocolate tasting, gin, grapa and liquer tasting. The 2 Restaurants offer from open fire alfresco braais to some of the best pizzas and much more. Lots of sprawling lawns for the children to play on and benches for you to relax on and just enjoy the views. We will frequent this place in the future.
So enjoyed the whole set up and the company was great
We were at Jem Coffee and the breakfast was very good. Excellent service from Jem coffee. The owner Justin was kind, warm welcoming and a really humble person, I will definitely visit again.
Gorgeous view, huge play area for kids and great service from the staff.
Great place.. and great coffee at Jem coffee shop
Great food, mindful of covid and excellent service
Top 10 must visit places of Cape Town. Eat, play, explore and experience all in one place
Nothing says I am ready for pilates like rinsing a wine tasting from your lips with a pint of lager from the CBC brewery before you wander nonchalantly into a glass studio filled with R50,000 pieces of fragile art. Spice Route is also the starting point for some great mountain biking trails, pizza frenzies and chocolate binges. In short, there is a helluva lot to do and see here.
Really amazing place, with great wine and even better beer. Great place to spend the day with family and friends and enjoy the amazing views and also great chocolate and ice cream too, fun things to do for the whole family. A must visit place whenever youre in the area.
An amazing conglomerate of beer tasting, wine tasting, chocolates, ice cream and restaurants on a beautiful farm at the foot if the mountains.
Cant wait to go visit again, Sipho enlightened us about the start of Pinotage
Stunning place to visit,,,very relaxing,,,great views,, lovely chocolate tasting,,,stunning restaurant,,etc
So affordable, great quality products, oh and the customer service is amazing. I dont drink beer but Ill definitely go beer tasting again just for the amazing customer service we recived.
Nice place to stay. Many Things to do - wine tasting, chocolate tasting, ice cream tasting, whiskey and beer. Equipment for children. Beautiful view to mountains.
Awesome experience 💯🤏
Food is outstanding and ofcourse the wine is to die for. But best of all is...my Dog can come with🐾
Very full! Plenty of activities to try, mainly eating, but theres shade to enjoy a impromptu picnic if you can find a bench and the lines are too long. Reasonably priced, and has a kids play area
Ambience perfect. Staff and service exemplary. Scenery picturesque
Relaxed. Very popular. Delicious food. Big lawns + play equipment for kids. In + outdoor seating. Beautiful views across the vineyards + the valley. Complex consists of little buildings containing an artisanal chocolate factory + a glass blowing factory which produces really beautiful pieces. Restaurant serves good SA wines + locally produced beers. Service is good, but dont go for a quick bite - take the whole afternoon!
Great food. Friendly and welcoming staff. Drinks tasting was a great experience and a stunning view to boot.
Wilderer gin is great, but the pizzas are such a let down. Base under cooked, not flavoursom,.Brilliant wine tasting centre
Pizza at the pizza restaurant was good. Beautiful view, and then there is De Villiers chocolates.... Yum
Never went inside but it seems a nice place to sit and relax with a drink.
Absolutely beautiful and peaceful place far from city chaos.
AMAZING PLACE!!! Beer tasting, chocolate tasting and gin tasting 😁. Ice cream tasting was a bit of a disappointment but overall the place is legend! Had a bite to eat at the restaurant and its some top notch food!
An experience not to ve missed. Great beer, wine and chocolate tasting. Very neat and clean facility. Restaurants offer a variety of food options. Beautiful scenery and an easy drive to the venue. Dont miss it. I will definitely visit more often.
Great place for the whole family. They offer great variety: ice cream tasting, a coffee roastery, chocolate tasting, beer tasting, pizzeria and much more!
Awesome placement full of different tastings. It has such a beautiful view
Very nice place. Definitely worth the drive. Lots to see and experience.
Lovely setting. Worth a visit. Go early as the wind can blow in the afternoon. Great pizzas.
Excellent service with friendly caring staff. Good selection of wines in a very homely atmosphere. Really enjoyed the time and people.
Loved the variety of tastings available. The staff were super friendly
Beautiful venue, with great food and wine tasting options.
A nice and chilled place to hang out with a group of friends
Great place for a weekend outing with your partner or kids. If you are going to do alot of the beer and gin tasting, having a designated driver is best. Lots to see eat and drink here!
Beautiful farm in Paarl. All kinds of tasting available like chocolate, ice cream, beer etc. Affordable and great outing for the whole family. Good food as well. Safe and secure parking too. Will definitely visit again soon.
Had a fun day here with family and friends.I was a rainy day so we had to dash from building to building for the tastings, and we sadly didnt get to really experience the outside of the venue. But the insides were really great.My personal favourite tasting was the ice cream! So good!The gin was also really nice, I would just advise to do it with some tonic (the gin was a little intense on its own). We also did the chocolate, wine and beer tasting. It was all such great fun. And we had lunch at their restaurant. And the food was also great!I would advise to make it a day tour. We only arrived at 1 in the afternoon, and had to rush a bit in the end to get to everything before they closed at 5. So its definitely better to go early and then you can take your time and really enjoy everything.I think I would definitely visit again. It was a good time :)
Delicious, fresh and affordable!!
Well informed team that really know their stuff, if its your first time going wine tasting this is a good way to get the full experience. This place really is magical; you can be transported to another world.
Well worth the +/- 45 minute drive from City Centre. Great to take the family for all-round enjoyment with a multitude of choices in wines, beers, gins to savour and chocolates, ice creams and coffee to wash down after a well serviced meal at one of three restaurants. Birdlife too! Resident Cape Eagle Owls...
Great location, friendly staff, good food. Gluten free base for the win!!
Wow what a stunning place, much to do for the whole family... Chocolate and ice cream tasting for kids... Wine, beer, gin tasting for adults.... Delicious food!
Sad beef burgers. Very very sad. Extremely sad. Back to the drawing board. Brisket and Chuck? Seriously, then sell it for R124? Its tasteless, oily, same as the chips and primitive enamel plates. Thanks to the ladies who tried to rectify it, you were awesome. Charmaine/Natasha/Letitia. Tripple Yuk to the chef. Was it his/her first time cooking? Must be working for free. Cannot express myself strongly enough on this forum.
I had a lovely experience and they have a great scenery.
Lovely atmosphere for families and friends. Good to relax, eat, walk around and shop. Prices are reasonable. Stunning views.
I had the most fun... there is so much to do and one a really good day you can do all that the place has to offer.
Fantastic family outing, beer, gin, wine, chocolate and ice cream tasting with big jungle gyms so the young ones can run of the sugar. Wood fired pizzas to fine dining, spice route is a must when visiting Cape Town👌
Service excellent food even better and the setting amazing...
I love this place, from the chocolate tasting to the barley and biltong! Amazing fish and chips and those platters! Amazing
Great food Witham even better view! A must visit if youre in paarl.
Great place with a calming atmosphere. Lots to do from wine 🍷 tasting to chocolate 🍫 and ice cream tasting. Something for everyone.
Was very disappointed with the coffee shop, bought a cafe mocha and Chai latte. Mocha didnt taste like it and Chai never had any flavour....croissant wasnt too bad thou, staff are friendly just the execution of their drinks was disappointing.
Nice venue, great for a family day out.. There is something for everybody
Beautiful view. Clean facilities.. Friendly staff.
We celebrated my friends birthday and could not have chosen a better place. The rain made it magical. So even great on a rainy day!
Great food, great location. Its definitely a place worth visiting! The tastings are brilliant. The biltong platter is a must!!!! And so is the Simonsberg burger!!!!!
Beautiful location with lots to do. There are multiple restaurants on site, offering anything from rustic burgers to traditional African inspired quisine. Patrons can also indulge in chocolate tastings and wine tastings, watch sport and enjoy the scenery of the Paarl valley.
A day with Moek and the 3 Fabulous Sisters . An Amazing Experience!
Yet again I am not disappointed!!Ice cream,chocolate,beer,burgers,best pizzas ,cured meat and did I forget the last but not the least...the wine🙌🏻🙌🏻Child friendly,wheel chair friendly and adult friendly.Did I die and went to heaven??The views is one of the Winelands best and time seems to past so fast when you are having fun.Spend the day,spend and hour,but do not miss the place when visiting Cape Town🍷🍷
A great experience, don’t cut this to short, try and enjoy all they have on offer.
