Restaurants in Mossel Bay

If you're hungry, the newly refurbished Cafe Gannet (tel. 044/691-1885; open daily), across the road from the main museums and the Tourism Bureau, is a good choice for seafood fans. For a finer dining experience, head 6km (3 3/4 miles) out of town to Stonehill (tel. 044/696-6501; daily 7am-10pm), just a few hundred meters to your left after you've taken the Little Brak River turnoff from the N2 toward George. The Provençal/Mediterranean-inspired menu earned Stonehill a mention in Dine magazine's top 100 Restaurants in South Africa, and the beef Wellington with wild mushroom ragout is particularly recommended.
