GAUTENG
Fleisherei Bistro
This welcoming Pretoria bistro offers a winning combination of great food (and a play area) for the kids, plus delicious, interesting dishes for adults. The meat cuts are especially good.
Arbour Café and Courtyard
The buckwheat galettes (savoury French pancakes), sweet crêpes and beautiful courtyard of this elegant Johannesburg café will charm the socks of young and old.
FREE STATE
Marmelade
From breakfast (think flapjacks) to lunch (think burgers), there’s something for everyone at this Bloem favourite, as well as a lovely outside area for the kids to run about.
KZN
The Chefs Table
If you’ve got little gourmets in the house, then this sophisticated Umhlanga Rocks spot with its focus on seasonal produce is the perfect venue for some seriously delicious nosh.
WCAPE
El Burro
It may surprise you to learn that this ever-popular Cape Town spot is very child friendly – it’s not unusual to see babies contentedly chewing on some nacho chips while their parents dig into the spectacular Mexican food.
Bertus Basson at Spice Route
With delicious food with wonderful local flavours, for the kids as well, and views for miles, this airy restaurant outside of Paarl is perfect for the whole family.
