Peppermill Cafe Plettenberg Bay — Restaurant in George

My husband and I went to the company next door for quad biking. After our quad biking we decided to stop here to check out the menu and perhaps buy something to drink as we were quite thirsty. Honestly , we didn’t feel very welcomed here by the staff or the other customers. Not sure if it’s because we’re Indian or what. We spoke to the lady at the till and wanted to order a coke as well and she just walked away- not following through with customers is so off putting. My husband fetched the coke himself and then she returned , we were waiting to pay and she kind of just ignored us and took payment from another white customer and then she casually asks if we wanna pay and so we told her we’ve been waiting. Just didn’t get very welcoming and friendly vibes from them and so we didn’t even bother sitting down and ordering food because we didn’t feel welcomed. It’s 2023. I thought we’re passed the “better than thou because of our skin” era. Shocked and disappointed. Also, a coke and two ice creams costed us...

This is by far one of the most special restaurants that I've ever visited! It looks humble upon first glance, but as you spend time there you realize how extraordinary it truly is. The staff were incredibly nice and helpful! They were always smiling and enthusiastic about being there. Then the food was absolutely exquisite! From the taste to the plating, everything was perfect. Extra care was added to presentation with flowers on the salad and placement of the food on the plate. The side salads were a treat on their own, with a perfect dressing pre added and a great variety of different leaves and veggies. All ingredients were fresh and the sauces and spices were memorable. The meals were also super filling as the chefs were very generous. The manager was walking around and checking in. They didn't have the pita for the veggie burger, but instead of insisting we order something else, they presented us with a delicious veggie wrap with the same ingredients.

The Peppermill is a hidden gem in The Crags that many locals and travelers have come to love and support over the years. Nick Donegan - owner and sous chef - runs a tight and well organised kitchen and restaurant yet manages to make the environment a relaxed, casual and top shelf experience.

The menu has everything from comfort food, to healthy options to the good ol burgers and pizzas. This is accompanied by a great craft beer selection and other interesting drinks and cocktails. Ask for a lemoncello :) I will say this: Anything your order from the menu will be delicious beyond expectation.

It is a great place for families, friends, couples, singles or just about anybody who enjoys good food, drink, company and music.

All the staff are very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the food and the activities to do in the local area.

The Peppermill is a must add to your holiday/culinary...
