Lunch at The Beach Bar, Hout Bay

Lynne had read good reviews for The Beach Bar in Hout Bay
It's next to the beach car park, opposite the Chapman's Peak Hotel. 
So we invited a friend who lives locally, booked a table and went for lunch on a beautiful breezy day

The wind made us choose to sit inside
We were impressed by the wide variety of ages and apparent incomes eating there

We had taken along a bottle from our collection and were happy to pay R50 corkage

Good quality cutlery

A good range of draught beers and cocktails

This jug of Draught was ordered by two men who then sat and chatted while it became flat and warm!

Our vegetarian friend chose three tapas, spicy chilli poppers...

Camembert spring rolls served with a berry coulis

and loaded fries without the bacon

Well-seasoned and nicely crisp Salt and Pepper calamari with barbecue ribs also comes with chips. Good value at R150
The barbecue sauce needs a bit of a rev, but the pork rib meat was falling off the bone

The large and much enjoyed New Yorker hamburger comes with a white cheddar sauce and maple bacon
 and you can substitute loaded chips for R20 extra
We did quite enjoy them but they are indeed loaded with calories

The Breakfast menu needs investigating

The drinks menu


with cocktails, wine, beer and cider

and the new main menu
We must say that the Truffled Mac and Cheese sounds like a great winter dish when one is feeling down!
And some other items on this menu like the Caesar salad and Nachos also need ordering. A return is planned

The bill for three with great service from Shaen-Claude
