This Mother’s Day, skip the DIY brunch and leave the magic to the pros at Oude Werf, where elegance meets comfort and every course is served with love.
Nestled in the heart of Stellenbosch, this iconic hotel is setting the table for a celebration that’s all about Mum — and trust us, it’s one she’ll remember long after dessert.
Three Courses of Pure Appreciation
- On Sunday, 11 May, Oude Werf is rolling out a three-course lunch designed to say one thing: “Thank you, Mum.” The afternoon begins the way all great celebrations should — with a glass of Cap Classique in hand. From there, it’s a culinary journey through seasonal, soul-warming dishes.
The menu stars Kingklip Thermidor, a showstopper of the sea, and slow-roasted beef fillet that practically melts. And just when you think you’ve peaked, out comes a baked cheesecake that’s worth every bite (and possibly a second slice).
Oude Werf knows a thing or two about atmosphere. Think: cobblestone charm, elegant table settings, and that warm, relaxed feeling that only comes from great food and even better company. It’s the kind of place where phones go down, glasses stay full, and laughs come easy.
At R645 per person, this experience is less about the bill and more about the beautiful memories — and maybe a cheeky Instagram or two. Just be sure to book ahead (email reservations@oudewerf.co.za) because tables here are filling faster than the breadbasket.
So go on — raise a glass, share a dish, and give Mum the celebration she deserves.
