My boyfriend and I went to The Baron on Witkoppen last night and it was absolutely amazing as usual. Our waiter Milton was extremely attentive and took care of all of our needs.
For starters I had the garlic peri-peri calamari which was delicious and cooked to perfection and not chewy at all, 10/10 would recommend. My boyfriend had the garlic snails and thoroughly enjoyed it.
For mains I had the fillet steak (medium). It was cooked PERFECTLY, melted in my mouth and seasoned wonderfully. My boyfriend got the rib eye steak (medium rare) and explained that it was one of the best he's had and that the marbling and fat was cooked the way it should be.
We were unable to have dessert as we had more than enough already but would've loved to try it out, although this gives us a reason to go again.
In conclusion the food, atmosphere and service was impeccable and would highly recommend to anyone who feels like a delicious steak. And once again thank you Milton!
Today we ordered a cheese burger and a halloumi salad. Cannot complain about one thing. It was Yum yum yum. And great service to top it up. Money well spent. Will definitely be back
Just got back from the airport, NOT in the mood to cook, and in serious need of burgers, Baron to the rescue.
1st things 1st, the portion size is absolutely humongous, with the chips and the onion rings this can easily feed 2 people comfortably, luckily i was extremely hungry and ended up sweeping the entire plate.
The onion rings are nice and crunchy, not to oily and onions soft and sweet. The chips is devine, and were crunchy, and not oily at all.
The burger also not outdone by the chips and onion rings, were done just right. I opted for the Baron burger, the patty done to a perfect medium, the bun, soft, fluffy and the perfect vehicle to stuff it all into your mouth. The sauces and salads just enough to round the burger off, not to much to overpower the patty, and not to little to make it dry.
All and all a job really done well!
Such a vibey place for a Friday night.
We started off inside. I didn't eat but my companion did and said it was delicious and the service was great. It gets quite busy inside which adds to the awesome vibe.
I'm not sure if it's the norm but they had loud music and dancing in an outside area. It was fantastic.
A great evening out and will be back.

Been here 7 times in the last 6 months. Friendly professional service, excellent calamari salad, great vibes, no complaints. Awesome to sit next to a river to feel like you’re in the country. Will be back many more times 🐙😍👍
What a stunning restaurant! We got a table next to the river, which was lovely but the inside area definitely has an upmarket appeal too, making this a very versatile option that would work for a number of occasions. I opted for the chicken pasta, I think it was the tikka chicken pasta. The portion was so big I could only manage half. Definitely a great option and I can't wait to go back.
Good food. Really good. Noisy. Nice vibe. Festive. Waiters struggle to keep up. So service is really not superb. I like the menu. But they call a very underwhelming piece of dry cake a malva pudding. That was a huge disappointment. I’d be back ja. Its good for a festive crowd who want drinks then a meal.
Today was a mixed bag of sublime and disappointment... my mans T-bone was out of this world... tender, juicy and basted in an amazing sauce... the chips were real, crisp and absolutely perfect... onion rings made just like they should be... and the pepper sauce, well it was incredible...
My calamari salad was presented beautifully... filled with fresh greens and a proper portion of calamari ... but then the fire started... I eat masses of chillies, but this was over the top... the manager checked on the dressing and immediately offered to replace it... he even removed it from the bill... he admitted that there had been a mistake and far too many chillies had been put in the dressing...
Deserts were pretty standard but presented with a touch of flare...
We will be back... and next time I will most certainly over indulge in the biggest steak I can find... 😉... loving the company
I absolutely love this place!! Another one of my favourite watering holes! Their food is absolutely MIND BLOWING!! A little pricey for sure!!!! Buuuut it's DEF worth it!! Their Cajun Chicken Pasta Bake is possibly the best thing you will eat all day, every day, for the rest of your life! Another HUGE favourite is the Chicken Trinchado.. one of the best I have ever had! Their steaks are mouth watering! So tender, so perfect.. borderline life changing! ❤

This one is the best Baron around and I've been going there for years. The waiters are obviously trained well and they are always friendly serving food with the smile. You can go to Baron for a quick coffee, lunch with your mates, family gatherings and a night on the town. I'm always impressed with the food. Only bad thing that has happened is once I got a pasta bake which had way too much salt but they were incredibly apologetic and I've never had a problem since.
Amazing place to go to , either with a loved one or as a family. I love that the smoking section is not just limited to outdoors like most places, and there is a wall separating the indoor smoking area. The waiters are friendly, efficient and ensure that all your needs are met. I loved their food.
The 5 star rating is for the service by management. Mike is invested in the standards of this facility. We had an unbelievably horrendous experience on mothers day. He immediately got in touch with apologies. We repeated our lunch today and it was excellent service as per standard. The service is excellent. The beef trinchado pie was outstanding. It was a completely different experience to our mothers day encounter. Thank you to Mike and the chef as well as Jabu who on Sunday tried to mitigate the disaster happening in the kitchen.
P.s Google did not allow me to keep my previous review about the experience on mothers day, be that as it may, Mike and team redeemed themselves. Overall an excellent food,vibe and service experience today. 👌

Lovely pub on the Jukskei river.
Usually the food here is great. However my chicken was dry and the chips tasted stale.
Excellent fire keeping us cosy.

Food was very tasty and served perfectly. We had the Liver with Bacon and Mash and was pleasantly surprized with the portion sizes! Staff was very friendly and attentive. Our only negative observation was the overwhelming firewood smell in the restaurant area itself, so, we decided to rather sit outside.
Attentive service. Well laid out and spacious. Various seating options. Food is always fresh and tasty. Beer is always cold. Kids play area outdoors. Enough TVs to watch any sport.
I loved every single moment of my visit to The Baron in Fourways. The hospitality is just so warm from the minute you walk in. My little brother was having his graduation lunch there, my uncle made bookings earlier on and when we arrived the place was already set for us. The restaurant gives of a very homey feel and the staff make sure that your every need is met. The menu is quit affordable, I am a student and I plan on making myself and my friends, very good regulars to this restaurant. I would recommend this restaurant without a doubt, the manager was the cherry on top for my day because he came to see us off and asked if we enjoyed our stay, and I really did. Perfect for friends and family, perfect for first dates, perfect for catching up with long time friends. They say first impressions last forever and this place definitely made a lasting impression on me.
What an unexpected surprise. Great atmosphere, staff and management super friendly. Stunning restaurant and bar indoors and a place for the kids to play outside. And just look at the food👌👌👌👌 yummy. A must visit.
The food was wonderful, from preparation to presentation, very pleasing.
The staff was friendly and welcoming. We chose a table outside; the river is very calming. I would definitely visit again.
Nice restaurant and kids friendly. Their mother day special drink was a very nice touch. A good alternatives to pappacino. The only regret I have is that they do not do pizza…
