My family and I are staying for 2 days in Bloom Estate Guesthouse and decided to try Field & Fork via a Google search, read the reviews and was told by the owners of Bloom Estate Guesthouse that the food is excellent. We tried it on Friday 4/3/2022 but to our disappointment it wasn’t meant to be. The place wasn’t as we have expected it to be and a very limited menu. We ordered a bottle of wine, had bread for the table and had s small starter (smoked salmon and cream cheese roulade) which was very nice. Since we know what we wanted we decided on the fish starter and wanted to order Pan Fried Kabeljou which was served with steamed black mussels but we were told that their shipment of mussels hasn’t arrived and there wasn’t any replacement in its place (like prawns). We were told to order mash potatoes instead. We decided to ditch the mains and paid for our so called very tiny starters, wine, water. Not even shy of the prices for starters and the people working there wasn’t friendly at all. I don’t know why this place opened on the 14/2/2022, when it could’ve stayed closed permanently for bad service and food. Try again and catch someone else. Will definitely not recommend this restaurant to anyone in the future.

Staying in Swellendam for one night and looking for somewhere to eat. Not many restaurants open on a Monday evening. Field and Fork was an exception. Was delighted to find this place is not a stop gap but definitely a destination place. The food was delicious and the service friendly. Great value for money too. I would definitely go again.

A very nice fine dining experience in Swellendam.
The food is fresh and very well composed, the service is good and friendly and the ambiance, cosy.

Great setting and wonderful service. Staff very pleasant..would be good to expand with regards to vegetarian options.
Good luck for the year ahead

I visited with a friend a few days before New Year. Staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. To start with I ordered smoked salmon and my companion venison carpaccio. Portions were small but of course those are pricey items. For the main course I ordered trout with warm nicoise salad. Very well executed except there was probably too much of an abundance of potatoes and not enough of the other vegetables, My companion ordered the lamb rib chops which were excellent in all respects, tender, juicy and full of flavour. Definitely a venue to visit in Swellendam.
