Harbour House Restaurant
Rated 4.3 in 9 Reviews
A Seaside Culinary Experience in the Heart of Hermanus
Harbour House Restaurant delivers authentic coastal dining with panoramic views of the Atlantic. Set in one of the most picturesque spots in Hermanus, this upmarket eatery has established itself as a preferred choice for both locals and visitors.
Culinary Highlights
The menu features a mix of contemporary and traditional seafood dishes, with notable vegetarian options including spinach and sweet potato lentil combinations. However, what many visitors don't know is that their freshly baked scones are a legendary local secret - made from a treasured family recipe that locals rave about.
Dining Experience
The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor terrace seating with prices reflecting its premium positioning:
- Lunch: R200-250 per person
- Dinner: R300-350 per person
For the best experience, arrive around 11:00 when the kitchen is preparing fresh batches of their famous scones and before the lunchtime rush begins.
Accessibility
The restaurant has made efforts to accommodate visitors with mobility requirements, though specific adaptations aren't detailed in reviews. Families will appreciate the kid-friendly atmosphere that makes parents feel at ease while dining.
When visiting during whale season (June to November), request a sea-facing table for the chance to spot these magnificent creatures while enjoying your meal - a truly unique South African dining experience you won't soon forget.
