6 Reasons to visit Island Cafe & The Gastro Pub: A Guide to Winter Specials at The Turbine

June is getting a little warmer at The Turbine Boutique Hotel and Spa, where locals are invited to settle in for a month of comforting food, relaxed dining, and easy-going specials at Island Café and The Gastro Pub.

Available until the end of June 2026, these sit-down meal promotions are a simple excuse to gather friends, skip cooking, and enjoy good food in one of Knysna’s most distinctive local spots.

Which is your favourite restaurant special at The Turbine?

  • Open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner, Island Café is bringing a few winter favourites to the table. Mondays start with Eggs Hollandaise at R65, featuring poached eggs, herbed cream cheese and rocket on toasted farmhouse bread.
  • Tuesdays call for a hearty home smoked chicken wrap served with chips for R85, while Thursday dinner gets a little more elevated with oven roast ostrich fillet, cauliflower cloud, forest mushroom and pear ragout for R190.
  • Sunday lunch keeps things classic with a 250g sirloin served with salad or chips for R185, ideal for locals looking for an easy weekend meal without the kitchen clean-up.
  • Over at The Gastro Pub, the specials continue daily from 14:00 until close. Guests can enjoy fish and chips with tartar sauce for R145, or share two Gastro cheese burgers for R210. Fridays bring even more reason to linger, with Happy 2 Hours from 17:00 to 19:00 and half-price drinks, excluding cocktails.
