Not often that I do the 5 star thing, but this place has so much to be proud of.
The staff are excellent. As we walked in we were greeted by a very young lad. He asked all the right questions and then found us a perfect table. JJ, our waiter was quick with the drinks and made a suggestion that was really tasty. While sitting we were attended to and check on to see if we were satisfied and if we needed anything.
The location and atmosphere was perfect. The Gardens are well maintained and quite serene.
I will definitely be visiting again.
We ordered some waffles and coffee when we visited the windmill restaurant. I thought I would try something fancy and ordered the apple custard waffle. I do feel like there's just way too much going on. I think just a normal waffle with ice cream would've been perfect. Otherwise, great place to relax, have something to eat and enjoy the view.
Toothsome, freshly baked waffles; they were airy and light ๐คค. It was a nice Sunday treat after a long walk for grocery shopping in Jasmyn ๐... Plenty of variety was offered, from the sweet ones to the savoury types ๐ง๐ง...
You can pick your own favourite (ice cream or cream) toppings as well: coffee โ, amarula, banana ๐, cheesecake ๐ฐ, rum and raisin, and many more

Food:
From the first bite to the return trip, a resounding "YUMMMYYYYY!!!" echoed through our taste buds. While the GOOD Waffles were unfortunately out of stock on our second visit, the sugary treat that followed was still amazing. The sweetness prompted us to share the portion, and it was more than satisfying.
Service:
Jade and the staff continued to impress with their friendliness and warmth, making each visit memorable. They even graciously assisted us in capturing a lasting moment with a picture.
Atmosphere/Environment:
With spring/summer painting vibrant colors around us, the atmosphere was simply stunning. The blooming beauty of the surroundings added an extra layer of delight to our dining experience. Also the addition of a small market and a fruit and veg shop on-site adds to the charm, making every visit to Harties a delightful treat.
Verdict: ๐ผ๐ด (Rating: 5/5 stars)
The Windmill Restaurant consistently delivers delightful culinary experiences amidst picturesque surroundings. Despite the waffle mishap, the overall charm, friendly staff, and vibrant ambiance make it an irresistible stop in Harties.

We had lunch today. We sat outside in garden under the trees. The food was great. My mother and I ate the oxtail waffle with veggies - It was delicious! My wife & children enjoyed the chicken & cheese waffle. They were also very impressed. My daughter then ate as a desert - the bar one caramel waffle. She was also impressed with it.
It is a tranquil environment, really enjoyed my food and the sound of the different birds while eating.
Would definitely recommend them.
For those of you who like Dutch food, this is your place. Nice place to stop if you are taking the family out for a drive around the dam. Their waffles are worth a try
What an awesome experience. The service is excellent! My hubby had the Windmill breakfast and I had a waffle with ice-cream. Both were fresh and absolutely delicious. We received our food a few minutes after ordering which was great as we were starving! The cappuccino and double espresso coffees were great too! So worth the drive for an awesome experience. We will definitely be back!
A fine establishment. My server was very friendly and gave us the best drink recommendations. The food was served faster than any other restaurant that I've ever visited. I wasn't even finished with my starter when the main course was served. The outside seating is not under a roof, instead the tables have umbrellas for shade. The food was tasty, nothing extraordinary though. The menu is quite small.
More than 10 year old. A must for n Sunday drive to the dam and treat yourself to something sweet or savoury. Staff is very friendly and helpful. We were seated quickly and given menu. Drinks Oder was quick and the filter coffee was great. I ordered a banana waffle with ice cream. Weโre given syrupโs with the waffles. Staff constantly asking if everything was good. Lovely views from any of the seating area in the garden. Jasmine freshly farmer market a mere 25 meters away for all your local produce. Lots of small stalls on Sunday that we were there. I believe there is a bookshop in the top area. Parking is safe and acces controlled.
I can recommend Windmeul wafel house as a place to treat yourself or someone special
A really good eating experience. After having just arrived back from the Netherlands, found the Dutch food to be tasty and well prepared.
Great food. Great aesthetic. Lots of fun and lively.
๐ 9 January 2022 - Absolutely cute little market before you enter the actually restaurant. They have this big board to tell you all the activities in harties. Which is absolutely amazing considering if you love adventures. My partner and I went to the waffle restaurant and the waffles are to die for! The Windmill is also very cute.
๐ 27 March 2022 - We went back here. I'm just coming back to write a second part to my experience coming here again. We went to the restaurant on the top this time and the view is absolutely amazing. The food came very fast and the waiter was always helping and serving us. Not really crazy over their food compared to the places I've been but it's convenient for a place like theirs otherwise coming here again was yet again nice.
Me and my parents had a wonderful lunch at this Dutch themed restaurant. The restaurant is situated inside, as the name implies, a windmill. It is very spacious and has a sophisticated atmosphere. The hake and chips was truly exquisite. Really worth the visit. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Excellent atmosphere and always same experience visiting, breakfast was very good, other meals especially Sunday roast is excellent ๐
Location is also good with farm vegetables below, bookshop above which is totally a must
