The customer service here is next level. Food is generous and ambiance was good. We enjoyed sitting out on the terrace, but you have the option to dine indoors too. We liked the vibe of the place. Worth the drive out.

Lots of parking, plenty of room for many guests, with great little hide outs for guests, offering private and semi private areas for various functions. Inside and outside seating available. Popular spot so no bookings allowed. Sumptuous offerings abound. Great burgers and other tasty treats will delight your taste buds. Great atmosphere and lovely place to chill and catch up with friends over good food.

The ambiance met my curiosity. The staff was supper friendly and Kuda assisted in helping us pick the right selection for our meal. The food did not disappoint at all. Our initial seating wasnt ideal, but we ended up right near the fireplace which delivered the perfect for the chilly morning. Would recommend this place solely on all the above. Ambiance, Food, Staff, Location👌🏾

What a magnificent setting. The dishes and service is excellent! So many other facilities as a bonus. Accommodation, wedding venue with chapel, the bunker bar. A must for business, friends and family. An overall great experience.

Love the location with a real treehouse feel and amazing food! So many places to sit, all with their own vibe going. Service could be quicker, with it taking a while for waiters to check on you. For the most part, I love this place and enjoy every visit.

Lovely spot to go to! If you just want a quick drink with friends, have a meal, cake and tea....this is the place to go. They cater for special occasions, weddings etc. There are even 4 beautifully decorated rooms to accommodate guests.

My experience at Blos Café was lovely. The café has a warm and relaxing ambience. It has incredible sitting space and carters for individuals and groups of people. The staff is amazing, they are very warm and welcoming. The menu is also off the charts, very flexible and carters for different tastes and preferences!!!! There is also massive parking space. Totally recommend it if you want to chill with friends or family or have work meetings. Covid-19 protocols are carefully adhered.

A really lovely spot. Great food and goodies. Lovely spaces and great vibe. The bakery is known for their great artisan breads. Place an order for their sourdoughs to make sure they keep one for you !

Awesome place! The restaurant offers a variety of serving options for different crowds. Enough isolated parts for date night, big tables for groups and also your every day family dinners. A bit pricey for your average Joe but rest assured you pay for quality. Has a separate bar area below the restaurant ideal for drinks after work. The deck aligns high enough with the trees which makes you forget you are in the city.

I absolutely love Bloss. Its a great place for functions, just a quick bite or a special date night. The food is always excellent and the staff are lovely. I love the unique menu and quality ingredients they use. This is one of my favorite places. The setting is so peaceful. I must say the service has become slow but the staff are still friendly and helpful. Its so nice to sit there so I dont really mind. Its still one of the best places to eat in Pretoria.

Hidden gem in Pretoria east with great rustic atmosphere and well maintened garden. Ideal for laid back breakfast /brunch. Food is absolutely scrumptious. Caters well for all types of dietary requirements, great variety of vegan dishes. Vegan platter is amazing and so is their falafel pizza.

I love this place. The food is absolutely amazing. The menu is nice and big, something for everyone. Their burgers are the best burgers I have ever had. I usually choose a restaurant based on their dessert menu, and these guys did not disappoint. I would eat there every day if I could. And the fact that it is right down the street is also a plus. Cant wait to go again.

Delicious food and professional service. Attended a 21st and hosted a kitchen tea here where the food and atmosphere was great. The staff were also very kind and helpful with all the logistics and questions when organising an event here - everything went smoothly and the staff were very professional. My favourite is the mango and chicken sandwich.

Review №47

My 1st time there.. and very disappointed. Although it was supposed to be a very special day.. and we tried really hard to make it special.. it just wasnt. Service was slow and took ages.. just to get drinks.. and then not even to talk about how dirty the wine glass was when I finally received my drink. No manager to control any situation. And from where we sat, you could see so many dissatisfied clients. And then to be so disappointed at the jalapeno poppers on their menu.. dont call it that please.. rather call it pepper poppers.. if I want jalapeno poppers.. I expect it to burn. Not even the sauce gave me the burning sensation I wanted.. even my mother that cant handle burning food, ate the poppers. The place was running on so little waiters.. they couldnt even manage their own tables. Rating the place at this point a 1 star... my mothers day is spoiled and will definitely not be visiting any time soon.

Dark and stuffy inside, service slow even when there were only a had full of tables, food not great and smells funny outside from being damp. Only delicious thing was the little piece of brownie that came with the coffee.

Divine place thats cozy yet spacious with a beautiful and sophisticated ambience. A lovely mix of music plays in the restaurant, portions of food is excellent. Waitors are friendly and good! A really good selection of craft beers!! And food was divine!Definitely visiting again and will try the outside seating this time. A meal for two would cost approximately R550; appetizer, mains; dessert and drinks! Excellent value for money.

A typical authenticate Pretoria pub & cafe with an arty natured sit down area. Food and service was great.Menu is large but not overwhelming - it is nicely set out. We made a booking for Wednesday night and Im glad we did because tables were full (I guess because of COVID-19 protocols).Definitely worth a stop by...🙂

A really interesting venue with a great energy. Lovely specials Monday-Thursdays. I personally enjoyed the burger I ordered with their skinny fries. The salmon salad however could have more salmon in it. I was quite unfortunate to experience a mess on my first visit as the waiter who brought my food spilt the burger sauce on me and caused quite a mess. The manager came to apologise but there was nothing else done after that. I did expect something complimentary as is the culture when a client has experienced a low point in service. We waited a while for our meals which was slightly disappointing as the restaurant was not at full capacity and when I asked whats taking so long the waitress was extremely defensive asking what we ordered only to see those who came after us get their meals before us.

I have very strict dietary restrictions, and Blos cafe was so accommodating! We went for breakfast for my sisters birthday and made a reservation beforehand. We sent an email to tell them about my food allergies and they made the food I wanted especially for me without the spices that I cant eat. I was so impressed and we also had super friendly service and the food was delicious. Full 5 stars!

Review №75

Sadly we went for breakfast today and after 1 hour and 30min!! we still didn’t have our food along with everyone else on the lower deck AND no sign of any action. One table received free champagne as an apology NO ONE ELSE. The lunch customers were already streaming in. We left with no food or apologies. We were not the only ones and the poor waiter was totally helpless. It was packed, definitely not following covid regulations either. No sanitizing no temperature taken or information noted and no social distancing. Totally packed and I would definitely not recommend this restaurant since there are so many other places better equipped in Pretoria. As people were squashed together to complain people were pushing their way in for lunch. Totally ridiculous.

Decided to visit Blos Cafe to celebrate mothers day, knowing full well they would be full, however, we were very disappointed. They allowed way more costumers in than they were prepared for. We saw our waiter 3 times in 2 hours and eventually left after over 2 hours, still not having received our food. Furthermore, we booked in advance and still had to wait for our table (I believe they gave our table to someone else).
