About

The Great Wizoo is where you come to chill, lay bare your breast, park off and break some bread. Around the back.

Description

The Wizoo is a pub/eatery - no not a restaurant, located in the Rondebosch Sports Club building. 2 bars with music, pool tables, big tv sets, and the usual paraphernalia. It's a spot near UCT and is different because it has ground, the food is good, and the prices are better.

The pub/restaurant/garden is run by the same crew who run the old and famed bowls club in Jhb; and is pretty much the same vibe - laid back and a quiet secret in the making. Around the back.

Mission

We provide a good enough meal and drinks at really affordable prices in an unpretentious safe environment - throw in some upcoming entertainment - give some work to the CT students and all is good.

Reviews

Beautiful view with good food at reasonable prices. The venue needs a bit of work.

As a student bar, everything is good even if not much is outstanding.  Judged against comparable bars, I must say that aspects as the view and the service is generally very good and friendly. The drinks and food are very reasonably priced and there's generally a very pleasant atmosphere, if not occasionally very loud, despite it not being that kind of bar.  Service is usually warm and friendly but staff numbers are not high so it can take slightly longer when busy. Decor is not the strong point and facilities are not anything outstanding, such as bathrooms. They're just bathrooms. But for the price point and the expected experience, you get what you expect.  In summary, a fun, value night out with no pretense necessary and a great view.

Very cheap drinks, fun music, annoyingly drunk students and generally dirty bathrooms. The outside area on either side is really nice when it's warm, though. Karaoke night is a lot of fun!

The Wizoo is a favourite drinking hole for students and eclectic personalities. From their Thursday night Jazz events to their reasonably priced beer, if you are looking for a local pub to grab a drink at this is definitely a place to visit. If you are wanting an up-market venue please go else where!!

Yes it's cozy, cost effective, great entertainment on theme nights, and great location but on busy nights, it takes forever! To get a drink; There's just one person behind the bar a majority of the time, the payment system is slow and inefficient. Saying that, lovely staff.  When it comes to sports there's just one TV but that's not enough for the place as its easy to get blocked out by pillars and people needing to stand or walk through if you're seated.

We had a function but was really disappointed with their service. Venue fee is reasonable so you get what you pay for... They ran out of drinks half way through the evening. The wine hadn't arrived, so managed to get some cheap wine. Not enough wine glasses, and only one barman. No good enough. On top of it all the guests in the bar kept wandering through our event to go to the toilet and drinks disappeared. Food arrived really late Wouldn't recommend a function there

Fits the mold of student dive bar with all the trimmings. Big screen TVs, all vital soccer games shown, great jazz evenings, pub quiz nights. A regular and dependable spot.

The Wizoo is a fun place that's visited by a wide range of people, from various cultures and income levels. It's popular with University students and has good prices. Excellent free Jazz on Thursday evenings. It is a proper dive and the loos leave a lot to be desired.

Great place with lovely music and a trendy crowd.  it's a perfect place for everyone. They serve scrumptious food at moderate prices and have awesome specials.

Wizoo is a student bar, with incredibly well priced beer and every month different drinks specials. The food is not bad, but on a busy night it takes fairly long to get to you.
