Kapokbos is an absolute gem in this area. It could hold its own anywhere in the world. Compared to an experience in the heart of London at one of the best located restaurants there, Kapokbos proves to be streets ahead. The staff and chefs are spontaneously friendly, attentive without being intrusive. The background music is intriguing and upbeat but not loud, the atmosphere invites one to sit back. Every dish is beautifully assembled while being of substantial size and everything is delicious. My visitors from the UK are hoping to return to Kapokbos before they have to leave.

Kapokbos at Weltevrede wine farm was a delightful surprise on every level. A light and airy space, simply decorated without pretension. The restaurant was humming when we arrived for our 1.30 reservation. The waitstaff were all smartly dressed, efficient and friendly, and clearly well trained. And then.. the food.! This was hands down the best meal we have enjoyed in years. The food was sophisticated and beautifully plated, fresh and delicious. . Clearly a lot of expertise, love and effort went into every plate. Very well done indeed!

We have been told by many people how good your restaurant is and decided to try it for my birthday lunch. I was a little worried that we were expecting too much and would be disappointed. Far from it. We both thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. We will be back with overseas visitors later this month.

Our lunch at Kapobos was exceptional - beautifully curated flavours, attentive, informed staff, and the estate wines at cellar prices! The tables are well spaced to allow for a feeling of intimacy. The gardens and views are also special. We loved that the chef took our diabetic requests into consideration and checked personally about how to prepare and plate the dish(es), and he personally followed up after the meal to find out how we were. We have already recommended Kapokbos to our foodie friends!

This was our second visit to Kapokbos & it’s becoming our place to go for lunch in the Robertson Wine area. It’s fine dining at a very reasonable price & the food is delicious, even the wine is sold at only a little above the Wine Estate price. The waiters are efficient & friendly & it’s just a lovely experience. Fully recommend Kapokbos.

Hi, Just love this place, but find on a very hot day it can be a bit uncomfortable. Suggest aircon inside? Otherwise top notch!
