– Winter Specials 2024 –

It’s that time of the year when Capetonians start noticing the days getting shorter and the sun dipping behind the horizon sooner than in the last few summer months. And while you might be gearing up to hibernate and spending your evenings binge-watching Netflix dramas, we want to encourage you to make most of the winter specials in Cape Town. Join us and tuck into one or more of our hearty Damhuis winter dishes.

Yes, it does mean that you will have to leave your comfy abode, but it will undoubtedly be worth it. Damhuis is a restaurant with a fireplace, which means you can sit in our Voorhuijs section and enjoy a cosy and warm atmosphere that will kick your winter blues to the curb. Do note: our Fisherman’s Tent area boasts gas heaters, so there’s that option too.

And then, of course, there is the delicious food. We specialise in fresh seafood, and traditional South African cuisine served in one of the oldest buildings in the Western Cape. Let’s take a closer look at our lunch and dinner winter specials…

Tuesday: Indulgent Eisbein & FREE Flying Fish Dry Apple OR Castle Double Malt – R160

Kick the week off with our famous Damhuis Eisbein cooked in our chef’s secret recipe, pickled, slow-cooked and roasted to crop perfection. It’s complemented with homemade sauerkraut, vegetables and mash and a FREE Flying Fish or Castle Double Malt beer.
