A great place to eat and chat

Oct 2022 • none

The welcome and atmosphere of Grunters lets you see past the the plain decor. I ate here, with my wife, and had enjoyable meals and conversations with owner, staff and other customers. It is a place that makes you feel welcome and produce really good food.

A must visit in Colchester

Mar 2023 • couples

If you want excellent home cooked food with a very friendly owner & to chat with the local community then this is the place for you. We’ve eaten here every night on our last 2 visits to Colchester & believe me it doesn’t disappoint. We will definitely return. Thank you Patrick

Very good food and lovely owner

Oct 2022 • none

Had steak one night and ribs the next. Food was great and the host was extremely kind and helpful. They even stayed open for us on a sunday evening. Would definitely recommend for the food alone. Quite dark and dingey but once you look past that it's great.

Worst food we’ve ever ordered

Feb 2021 • none

Worst food we’ve ever ordered ... Regina Pizza for R79 in the photo says it all. The pasta’s tasted like they were frozen meals that were warmed up in a microwave. They got two of the orders wrong ... we ordered ‘take aways’ and it was late in the evening. Didn’t feel like going back to complain. The owner (I assume) had a bit of an attitude too ... Would not recommend this restaurant to anybody.

Stopped for lunch as only place we saw near Addo.

Feb 2020 • couples

Well the menu showed promise but unfortunately the food didnt deliver. I had liver onions and mash and my husband the chicken schnitzel and cheese sauce which was all either pack or frozen. Very disappointing all around.

Terrible beyond words

Mar 2021 • family

We stayed over close to the pub reroute to Durban and grabbed a takeaway after a long day... what a complete disappointment. Orders incorrect and calamari was literally inedible. Spent the next day on the road with a physically sick family. Manager/owner was rude and not welcoming at all.

Lunch

Jan 2020 • couples

Great place to lunch after long morning drive in Addo. Lovely friendly service. The owner, I shall assume his name is Gunter was very friendly and outgoing. A great choice on the menu and the fish was excellent!@

WORTH A VISIT

Oct 2023 • family

We went to Grunters twice when visiting nearby Addo Park. We thought we got good pub grub at a very reasonable price. Surprisingly big menu and generous portions. Staff we found also to be chatty and friendly . The venue is tucked away in Colchester but you would do well to make the effort to find it.

cheap and cheerful

A basic neighbourhood bar with food. Not a lot of choice in the area but our food was OK. The young man that looked after us was friendly and service was good

Varied menu and very friendly atmosphere

Jun 2021 • friends

Good food served by a very friendly owner / manager who makes you feel welcome and is happy to make changes to suit individual needs. We went several times during the week because we were staying nearby and due to the varied menu we never got tired of going there.

Local hangout with friendly service and decent food. The steak was great; order the mixed grill with the rump for the best value and ask for chips done crispy.

Good food with low prices

Dec 2019 • couples

At our stay in the area we had two times dinner at Grunters Bar. Everything was fine. On Friday there were also live music, which was great. The Restaurant is also highly visited by local people.

Amazing food

Nov 2019 • couples

We were staying in the area for 2 nights and visited Grunters both nights. After our first night we had no hesitation in returning for another visit! Patrick the owner is so welcoming and friendly. Juandre behind the bar was so friendly also. Can highly recommend the smoked hake, it was divine and I can guarantee you would not be disappointed!!! We will return for sure!!>
