Die Plattelander Restaurant

A beautifully rustic, historic place reminiscent of a more beautiful era, paraffin lamps, lovely nighttime atmosphere. The food... I ordered a Lamb curry which was produced in the kitchens of heaven. The craft gin was exquisite! Service is homely and fast, food doesn't take too long to prepare. Update:While the waitress is amazing, management has questionable ethics when it comes to drinks. The Gin is advertised as R55.00, but what is not mentioned, is that the mix is charged separately at around R20 extra. This is the only splinter in a really lovely restaurant..

Service was a little slow to start off with, but after the waitress evetually took our drinks order, it was a while before she was back. Menu is reasonably priced for small portions. Atmosphere is okay and all in all a good experienceFood: 3/5

Delicious food - we had the lamb shank for dinner and thought it was very good value for money. Drinks spirits on the other hand - I ordered a double Karoo craft gin & mixer, and the price was nearly the same as a lamb shank meal

Warm and cozy atmosphere with delicious homestyle cooking. The fritters were a real treat. Very friendly waitresses Food: 4/5

What a fantastic experience on a rainy Sunday night. We were warmly welcomed and received excellent service from our bubbly waitress, Lucille. The food was of outstanding quality. We would highly recommend the lamb shank as well as the bobotie. The chips that accompanied the chicken burgers was perfectly crispy. For dessert we can recommend the peppermint crisp tart as well as the chocolate mousse. A perfect stop when in Colesberg.

Food was excellent although the Irish coffee had literally one drop of Irish. Still well worth a visit when in ColesbergFood: 5/5

What a wonderful discovery, thank goodness the Wimpy was full. Well worth the 5 min drive into town. Great food, awesome service and good prices as wellFood: 5/5

The overall experience was good. Food was filling and good portions. They did not have the lamb chops that I wanted. The lamb curry was a far cry from an Indian style curry. Think lamb stew with a heavy brown sauce with a hint of curry powder added. The malva pudding was light and fluffy but the custard seemed to be very processed and not made fresh. The vegetable choices were traditional and tasted great. The staff was friendly.

The best restaurant in colesberg. Wil go again Everything was great Were on a waiting list and but worth the wait.

The restaurant is very rustic. Has a lovely craft gin menu. Only 3 on the menu but worth a try. The tonic changes color. As a vegetarian they had a veg lasagna which was awesome!!! If you're sleeping over in Colesburg you should have dinner here.
