Sophisticated country cuisine

The Eatery in the barn

Come and sample the menu at The Eatery in the barn at Rivergate Farm on Fridays and Saturdays. We specialise in hearty nostalgic meals and extravagant cakes inspired by the seasonal produce growing all around us, on both our working farm and in the wider Overberg region. The farm is located just outside Stanford, 23km from Hermanus.

Experience culinary nostalgia at The Eatery, where our continually changing menu of home cooked lunches await. During the winter, find solace by the fireplace, while hot summer days invite you to choose a table on the terrace, overlooking our tranquil gardens. Our menu is a selection of delectable dishes crafted from the finest seasonal produce. We use as much as we can from our own vegetable garden and from the best local food artisans in our area.

At the heart of the farm, our garden blooms with cultivated flower beds, abundant orchards, and a thriving vegetable patch. With pride, we source sustainable, organic ingredients, ensuring a delightful dining experience that’s both kind to you and the environment. Immerse yourself in a true farm-to-table journey, savouring the rich flavours nurtured by our devoted hands.

Mark your calendar for our captivating monthly-themed lunches, a feast for your senses. To secure your place, make sure to book in advance and savour The Eatery’s culinary magic.

The Eatery is only open on Fridays and Saturdays and for special events.
