“Vibey place for some relaxing time”

Padlangs Country Restaurant
Ranked #1 of 3 Restaurants in Patensie
Description: Padlangs is located 7.5km from Patensie on the R331, en route to the Baviaanskloof Wilderness Area, and located in the tranquil Gamtoos Valley. In September 2016 we moved to our brand new premises (500m from our old location). We now have a water splashpad, giant garden chess set, play area for children with a bike track, outside shower for cyclists, and a stunning view of the Gamtoos Valley. Great Food is still on the menu. #Slowfood #Slowzone #Countryfeeling

The place is funky, with some funny decors displayed. Much of a family vibe.
The food is very traditional south African...
I had a venison pie with salad. Excellent and in good portion (it was my dinner as well). I had the chocolate cake for desert - not my thing, but might be good for other people.
Excellent service...

Beautiful setting and open spaces for kids. Service was okay. Food was really disappointing. Food was cold and one of the biggest sins for any decent restaurant is the use of pre prepared chicken wings. I am sure you guys can do better than that.

When travelling in this area, this is a good place to grab something to eat. There are lots of save parking and a big playground for kids. The food was good, but the restaurant was under-staffed and it took a long time for the food to come. However, the staff was friendly.

Very nice stop after driving through Baviaanskloof. Good menu and service, clean ablutions, nice lawn for kids to play and lovely views from seats and tables under huge shady trees. Also inside seating for inclement weather There is also a craft shop
