Delicious fish, friendly staff, cool ambiance.

This place is amazing. We had the line fish (yellowtail), calamari and a beet salad. The best seafood we had during our two weeks in South Africa. From the outside this place looks like a casual diner, but when you walk inside it has a...much nicer ambiance with a northern right whale skeleton hanging from the rafters and a museum- like display on a famous local historical shipwreck. My only recommendation would be to request a table near the fireplace as the air is cold if you are near the door when people enter or exit. Would definitely eat here again.More

Food disappointing

Nice spot and friendly staff but food was disappointing. The seafood platter was over-cooked, the linefish was dry and the mussels were drowned in a creamy sauce. Go there for typical pub food, but don’t try anything else.

Standard pub type dinner - good but not special

Ate here at short notice. Big room with marine skeletons as decoration. Service was good, beer fine and food was average but also fine. Good value but little atmosphere

Worth a visit for their seafood

This is a very busy place but the service is excellent and the seafood great. I enjoyed the kelp & mussel broth and the Abalone & mushroom basket.

Worth a visit!

Great food, service & ambiance. Abalone was delicious - they are one of the few licensed restaurants to serve it! Will be back when next travelling through Gansbaai

Best option in Gansbaai

Very good option in Gansbaai. Nice setting and interesting with the whale skeleton on view. Very good hake and calamari with good hand cut chips. Crisp light batter, big portions and calamari was fresh and grilled to perfection. Good wine list. Not overly expensive. Worth...visitingMore

A memorable experience

A Sunday drive took us to Kleinbaai, where we 'found' The Great White House. A hospitable welcome, good food and friendly service encourage a return visit. During our second visit, we decided this was an ideal venue at which to celebrate the new year -...so we booked an overnight stay. Our 'fisherman's cottage', with luxury linen and everything we needed, was spacious, well-appointed and comfortable. A fun-filled evening with entertainers Matt Stern and Anza, good wine, excellent cuisine and gracious service made this a memorable experience. We'll be back.More

A Must Do if visiting the area

We had the most wonderful evening here. So good in fact we came back the next night! The Eco friendly ambiance, the whale skeleton hanging from the ceiling, the staff, THE FOOD, all fantastic. Particularly recommend the Ostrich fillet, the cheesecake (best ever) and the...delicious Brownie. Large portions of high quality food and friendly staff make this a Must Do if you are nearby.More

Unimpressive Service

Service was a bit slow, and our order arrived at our table wrong. The ashtray I asked for never arrived, and our bill arrived without our waitron asking if we would like anything else. Unfortunately we did not have a memorable experience.

Disappointing !

Went there on recommendation of our guest house hosts. Not bad…. TERRIBLE! Ordered 2 portions angel fish and deep fried hake as well as 2 seafood platters. The hake was fresh and very nice, the chips on all plates perfect! That’s were it stopped. The...angel fish was scraped from the bottom of the deep freeze with a tail portion completely dried and the rest of the fillet also dry. Left most on the plate. Seafood Platter had the usual “over” deep-fried fish with so called calamari (finger thick, tenderized octopus) and a pot of mussels in an undefinable gelatinous, flavorless goo.More
