Really nice place for lunch. The restaurant Babel is still the best in this beautiful farm, but the Greenhouse food is also very well prepared and presented. The choice is a little limited but the quality is great. A new special was the pizza, definitely worth a try, one of the closest to Italian tradition that I found in Cape Town.

Such a wonderful outdoor experience, just a pity they dont cater for people who have difficulty to walk. Enjoyed the scones and drinks

A really great spot for lunch! Beautiful setting, wonderful food and friendly staff!

Wonderful experience at the Greenhouse Restaurant in Babylonstoren! The staff were so inviting and friendly. Ice tea on the menu is a must try - sooo good!The sandwiches were not what I expected, but I was pleasant surprised with the taste.Although the presentation of the food is great, I wonder if it might not be a little more efficient to serve the sandwiches on something a little more durable than paper? Just a thought.Loved it so much, Ill definitely come back and recommend it to my friends and family!Thanks.

Food was delicious and service excellent.

Love this little place! A friend and I had their boerewors roll with chips on the side and LOVED it! Quick service and food was fast and fresh! Definitely a restaurant to stop at after walking through the gardens to refuel and relax 🪴😎 Waitresses were wonderful ladies and made us feel welcome. Will be returning soon!

Excellent food, fantastic service and love the restaurant set up. We got there for brunch and by the time we left it was filling up so our timing was perfect. Thoroughly impressed my folks visiting from JHB. The walk through Babylonstoren was well worth it too

Great garden but menu is really limited and is more on the clean and whole foods side

Absolutely love the Greenhouse restaurant at Babylonstoren. The meals are absolutely beautifully presented and tasty, however a MAJOR let down is the service. Our waiter took our order, brought our food to the table and never returned. I really do wish the service matched the 5 star worthy taste and presentation of their food - especially considering the prices you’re paying.

Setting is beautiful and coffee was great but the food needs attention. Pork sandwich was far too sweet and the lamb and waterblommetjie pie grossly underseasoned.

We didn’t have lunch but had a wonderful garden tour, Beautiful gardens and open spaces. So peaceful

Awesome, casual eating outdoors in a beautiful, rustic farm setting. Unpretentious, friendly, wholesome ingredients in a relaxed environment.

We had a wonderful time. Beautiful place. Great food and great service.

Pleasant experience. Absolutely loved the aesthetic appeal of the greenhouse with all the suspended planters and very organic look and feel. However, was disappointed with the service, as the waiters/waitresses (that had attended to us) were not clued up with the types of teas on offer 💯

Really disappointed. Second rate service, food is brought in a crate and simply put down on a chair next to the table for a customer to serve themselves, the chairs and tables are flimsy cheap second rate camp furniture, the structure is unheated and also has no air-conditioning for summer. We were told that the doors had to be kept open because of covid when the structure is only half occupied by tables, the other half being given over to plants, and other apertures were open. This resulted in the structure being freezing cold, taking on the outside temperature. In summer it would be sweltering hot. I will not be returning. Not impressed.

Great place for taking a rest and you can enjoy reasonable food!!

Loved the boerie roll on offer and the cold brew coffee they sell. The restaurant is situated at the back of the gardens and has a wonderfully calm and peaceful vibe no matter how busy it gets.

If you are looking for a great restaurant to grab lunch, I can definitely recommend the Greenhouse @ Babylonstoren. As the name suggests, the restaurant is located inside a greenhouse where you are surrounded by plants, and they have an outside seating area as well. This is a perfect location in spring time when the gardens come alive after the cold winter. All ingredients are fresh, of a high quality and very tasty. The Greenhouse would be good for groups or romantic dates alike, and the cherry on-top is that after your meal you can go for a stroll through the beautiful gardens of Babylonstoren. They should have space available if you are a small group, but they can get very busy so it would be best to make a booking if you want to be guaranteed space so that you can experience what they have to offer.

A beautiful bistro style restaurant surrounded by trees.Antique furniture & farm style food makes it a great experience.

The place is absolutely beautiful, the food was good I was very disappointed with the service. Our waiter was very rude. Other than that the place was wonderful.

Healthy and delicious food from their own garden!

Great food.Beautiful environment.

Tranquil setting which makes this place hard to leave. The time stands still here.Meals made of the vegetables grown on their farm, nice and simple menu, friendly stuff, delicious food, good wine.The one and only compliant would be the size portions. Felt hungry again in half an hour after finishing the meal (it’s wasn’t a light one, don’t be fooled, polished off with two desserts, yet still not filling)

Unique menu, with great quality organic food at good prices. Lovely setting and very good value for money. Highly recommended!

Beautiful garden surrounding and a unique fresh menu. Friendly an a relaxed vibe.

I just love Babylonstoren farm. Perfectly manicured gardens; vegetable patches and fruit orchards. Wonderful small shops situate in ancient farm buildings selling delicacies and fresh produce. The greenhouse restaurant is situated on the farm in an outside shady area offering interesting small food. Just a delightful outing for a family and a must-do for visitors.

During each of my prior visits I did not get a chance to try out this restaurant, as there was always a waiting list. Seeing that they were always busy, I thought wow this restaurant must be really good and I was therefore keen to eventually visit at some point. Finally that day came, I managed to get a table after waiting for about 15 minutes. To my surprise I was utterly disappointed. Firstly, we sat in a section that had two garden misters spraying directly onto us. Maybe if it was just for 5 minutes, it wouldve been okay, but it continued for some time - causing our table to have a wet layer and our 3 year old being very unhappy about water constantly blowing in her face. Secondly, the menu was not what I expected. Besides the kids boerewors roll option, the only other kids dish on the menu is mac and cheese. Babylonstoren is a place that many families visit, which means lots of kids visiting too. Therefore I do not understand why the menu is not more kid friendly. The boerewors roll and layered sandwich that we ended up ordering was really not the greatest and definitely not something I would come back for. The service was not the best either, our waiter did not bother to come and ask if we were okay or whether we needed anything else. Just to ask for the bill alone took some time...

Fresh, home-grown meals that is not too bad on the pocket. Nice outside setting with enough shade and space between tables. Try the mango and passion fruit icicle!

Organacly grown fresh food well made grown on the farm with excellent views. Highly recommended

A beautiful venue for a small function. The food was wonderful: the salad was fascinating with unusual additions such as loquots and golden beetroot, and the ice tea delicious. The service from the restaurant staff was great - they were attentive, friendly and helpful.

Well worth a drive from Cape town .Friendly staff and ice lollies delicious

We had an excellent meal at the Greenhouse Restaurant at Babylonstoren. The food was fresh and delicious, the vibes of the restaurant were amazing being inside - and everything just fit perfect for the season. I would absolutely recommend grabbing lunch here!

Never disappointed at Babylonstorens Greenhouse restaurant. All meals are freshky prepared with produce from their own gardens. Juices are nutritious and delicious.My personal favourite is their pie filled with wholesome greens and organic meat.Even though theres a lot of soace, be prepared to wait in a queue for a seat - it can get quite busy. A solution is to write your name on the waiting list and then stroll around through the garden while waiting for a table to open up. Best time to visit is spring/summer when plants are in full bloom... A gorgeous place... Dont forget to visit the health garden behind the restaurant.

Loved it, locally farmed and high quality food. Really nice waiters, we will be back just for the food.

Rude waitresses. Refused to put two small tables together to cater for a group larger than 4 people because of covid but then there were 2 other tables for 10 filled with people. One was a bachelorette party of like 12 ppl and yet they wouldnt put two tables of 4 next to each other so that we could be together as a family. Whats even more hilarious is one of the pictures on google is of the 10 seater tables. LolMenu was thin. Mostly sandwiches and pastry. 1 red meat dish aside from the sandwiches having meat stuffed between it. Only red meat dish was a boerewors roll...sigh whaat..??Waitress dropped our food on drop-off table 1 meter from our main table forcing us to get up and fetch the food ourselves which ended in one of the dishes falling on the floor because of the chaos. It was as though they think that covid will infect them if they simply place the tray of food on our table that is 1m from the drop-off table.Definitely wont be back.

Setting is beautiful but got my hot chocolate after my meal was done. That was the only time I saw my waiter again. The waiter forgot and then the bill was incorrect as I was charged for cappuccinos.

Its good on food and drinks (CBC Amber white beer, service as well as expected.

Really great cute outdoor café-like set up. Super great fresh and wholesome food. Really enjoyed the biltong layered sandwich and the potato wedges are in a league of its own. Perfect pit stop while walking around the gardens. The waiters are also super great and really helpful. Would rate this as a definite stop for any local or tourist.

The food here is not good, and not value for money. It felt more like we were on a conveyor belt than in a nice setting and having a good lunch.

Delicious pot pie for lunch in a beautiful setting at Babylonstoring after a lovely walk in the stunning garden

A must go to . But honestly bring some of your own mustard to out onto the sandwiches . Other than that its the most beautiful place .

Fresh innovative food in a garden setting.

Great food and drinks. Brilliant service!!

I cannot believe this place has a rating above 2. Complete tourist trap. Honestly the worse meal weve had in the winelands in over a year. I cant actually remember anything ever being worse. Very limited menu, mostly sandwiches. All the bread was was old and disgusting, my son ordered a kids macaroni and cheese tasted like pasta with water and flower. So unbelievably bad. Come for a walk in the garden take some pictures but do yourself a favour and eat somewhere else.

Babylonstoren is worth a visit, for sure

Menu is local and inspiring, fun non-alcoholic drinks and eats. Service is quick and friendly, portions are awesome: Sandwich was a whole ciabatta roll XD.The atmosphere and the critters that inhabit the greenhouse make it a one of a kind place.

Very welcoming. Covid prepared. Good, mildly expensie food. Nice setting.

Amazing outing so peaceful and beautiful. Food is delicious.

Gardens are beautiful, however we sat down at the restaurant and were told to leave the table because we had not waited to be seated - even though nobody was at the desk to help us get a table. Poor attitude in general.

Had the pot pie with fresh garden salad. Awesome!!

Service efficient. Great menu. Good with covid 19 compliance

Not only is the restaurant very good but the farm is fantastic

Firstly, the lady who walked us to our table, slammed down the glasses and water (so if we werent there). Secondly, we had to ask for a third knife set (there were 3 of us). Thirdly, when the pot pie that I ordered came in a little bowl and tiny plate (which looked like a saucer) , I had to ask for a bigger plate to make sure that I could eat that and my chips (with my knife and fork)...

Beautiful place! Amazing food!

What a disappointment. You now have to pay a R 20 per person entry. The food is dropped on chairs to prevent Covid! You have lost the plot.

Stunning setting. Interesting menu and stunning food! Excellent service!

Always a pleasure coming here. Beautiful and restful. Excellent coffee and fresh scones with all the bits. The best!

Always lovely and busy but worth the wait. Enjoyed the Tomato Gazpacho on a hot day

Stunning place, good food, good vibe! Will definitely go back for more!👏🌻 amazing garden with a swing and even a snake walking path.

Amazing food and service!!!

Horrid staff attitude. After walking in the heat of the day to get there, we were told we wouldnt be offered water during a 40 min waiting period as it was seated service only. The very rude staff member who took at least 10 minutes to even get to the please wait to be seated line, shouldnt be in the service industry. I was so embarrassed as I was taking my family from JHB out for the day to see our beautiful city and the attitude of the staff left much to be desired. Wont be going back.

Menu feels experimental, and was quite expensive. But the setting is lovely and the experience pairs well with walking through the gardens. Would welcome a more economically priced food venue, with suitable items for children.

We had a great time! We will back !

Good food made from fresh ingredients. Attentative staff.

The surroundings are just beautiful here. The menu is very basic and more picnic style food. The quality of the ingredients were fresh and super tasty, coming from the surrounding gardens. I do however feel that the food was a bit pricey for what it was, but hey I guess you cant put a price on the beauty of the surroundings. The staff also super friendly.

A great alternative to the main resteraunt with an excellent choice of food, well cooked and free from additives. As for the location? Well its our 9 visit.

Wonderful place to visit. The scones are amazing.

Any South African can cook thus at home and even better. But a nice setting

Our favourite family restaurant!! The potato wedges and ice tea are a must!!! Service is friendly if a little inattentive at times. The gardens are magnificent!! Well worth the visit!!

Outstanding setting food was wonderful service friendly dont miss this place I will be back for sure

Wonderful gardens. Great cappuccino and scones. Well worth a visit

Nice farm house style tavern. Excellent for a Sunday outing with your family.

A bit of a slog to get there. Fabulous for able bodied people but not for me. The food was great and its a shame I wont be able to experience it again!

Had great time. I had sandwich of the day and hubby had chicken pot pie. Declared it delicious. Beetroot chutney fantastic. Friendly atmosphere and great service. Thanks for everything.

Great ambiance. Service is friendly and efficient. The salad is exceptionally fresh and the pot pie was fantastic. Book if you are able. The garden is also exquisite and worth the visit.

Lovely food. Wonderful service. Beautiful place. Gorgeous gardens

Excellent menu

The menu is very limited but the food is fresh... literally just picked out their gardens! Beautiful setting!

Quaint outdoor facility. Even though the menu is fairly limited, the wares on offer was quite tasty and affordable. All the staff, all locally employed, were friendly, efficient and knowledgeable.

Absolutely delicious, friendly staff, well priced.

Great service whilst sitting in a calming ambience in a beautiful environment.

Very bubbly vibe. Service and food good. A place to visit for sure.

What an amazing place. But the “new” way of generating money does not sit well. Asking a R20 p.p entrance fee to go to a place where you go to spend money is just a joke!

Nice setting, menu not kid- friendly

I feel the offering of food and style of eating needs a rethink.

Garden is beautiful, food is average.

The most beautiful gardens to walk through on your way to the Greenhouse. Food is good, quick and reasonable. However, I am still waiting for the ice that Ive asked for. Seems like they forget about you after the food was served.

Deliious light meals all fresh produce from farm. Value for money most attractive presentation.

Great ambiance under the beautiful 🌲

Absolutely fantastic. Food and setting is exceptional with incredible service. A memorable meal and gem.

Nice place inside Babylonstoren vineyards. Good sandwiches. Everything used is organic and planted local.

Great food, a bit on the pricey side

Babylonstoren has the best coffee. The sandwiches at the greenhouse restaurant are well worth the money. Deserts are a must!!!

My favourite place in the Paarl area. Lovely garden walk to get to the restaurant, food is always special.

Very cool way of serving their food in jars. Great place to walk around and see the gardens.

It is in a nice farm outside Cape town..

Decently priced. Skip the fire food, have the halloumi sandwich or salad.

The food is delicious, the service is incredible, the setting is beautiful, we had a lovely time!

Good
