Awesome gees, goeie kunstenaars en uitstekende kos. Veral die eisbein!
Food was delicious. Atmosphere awesome!! Live misic really set the tone. Bit pricy. Good service. Busy over public weekends. Mojo jam jar always my favourite

The Upper Deck is perfect to watch a rugby game and drink a few springbokkies with friends. The atmosphere is fantastic, you immediately feel like you can relax and just enjoy the evening. The food is normal pub type food and does the trick for what you want out of the evening. I would say that service is friendly, but overall very slow.
We usually go on weekends when we in the area for the weekend
Got live music normally over the weekend
Food is good! Service sometimes a bit slow when very busy, but it's understandable.
Very good Eisbein!
A nice and casual pub with regular pub food, affordable drinks and live music. Nice outside seating as well as indoor where you can hang out with friends, meet locals and even watch live sports on a big screen. Really nothing fancy about this place, but if you are in town and you want to knock back a few, this is the place to go.
I have been here quite a few times! And I must say... I have never been disappointed. All of the food served is fresh, tasty, well plated, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is awesome! Especially when there is a band playing! (If that's your thing!)
2 main downfalls on our meal: our snails were cold, and the jalapeno poppers were not the best I have ever had! BUT also not terrible!! I'm used to poppers being full of cheese, creamy and rich! The batter needs to be nice and thick, and the overall popper needs to be juicy. These particular ones did not necessarily meet these standards.. however they were still edible!
The nachos were awesome!! It had a ton of jalapenos on, the salsa was amazing, there was so much cheese, and the entire dish just worked! Definitely a big fan!
Very friendly staff lovely food and atmosphere with good music , the entrance is just a little confusing for a first time visitor because it looks and feel like you are driving past it into the dark
Great pub setting we visited. Visited in the day so quiet, very low prices, long wait for food but worth it. Hubby enjoyed his ribs and I loved my waffel with ice cream.
S and I arrived here on Tuesday for lunch. We shared an eisbein and then the chicken starter. Had the Irish Red craft beer. Eisbein was very big. I'm glad we shared. We both enjoyed the Irish Red. The chicken was marinated and was tasty. Service was very quick. It was very pleasant and cool under the thatch umbrellas.
Went to Upper Deck yesterday for lunch with a friend as our family friend is here from Mauritius. My mom and friend had the fish and chips and my boyfriend and I had the classic cheese burger. All in all it was lovely and presented very well.
I was very chuffed that the service was quick as the...
Great place awesome vibe and a must visit. Service was excellent and very fast enjoyed a beer and a few shooter.
Friendly staff, definitely will visit again
Great place to sit outside and speedy service just had a few drinks and shooters here.
Love the vibe and the tourists surrounding the area.
Will def go back for drinks.

Departing from Lion Park the next morning, in between the more than two hours coach ride to north-west Johannesburg, we stopped for lunch at The “Upper Deck Restaurant”. Busy-busy bustling with tourists, Upper Deck is a laid-back rustic grill-restaurant, boasting a huge and lively garden terrace and live music. As we sat at the outside dining area, sort of a similar concept to Kirstenbosch Garden Moyo Restaurant, lunch opened up with a salad and then we opted between the three platters - seafood, steak and lamb, indeed, huge portions paired with salad and plentiful of fries. For dessert, while we continued sipping the chilled drinks and beer, we were served the colorful assortment of sweet stuffs - really and truly sweet!
Despite literally forcing ourselves to finish off the set lunch, I suppose only so much one can eat. But the good thing was that we helped the tour guide to pack the leftovers for the underprivileged. In fact, throughout the past couple of days after dining, we have been doing it to support the guide's humanitarian work.
Indeed, dining in this restaurant was a nice experience as part of our travel venture to South Africa.
Eddie Venter and I enjoyed great burgers here on a quick pit stop on our way to Haarties. Large outside seating area and great live music added to the fun ambiance. A well known bikers hang out, the roar of bikes is a continuous back track. The service was pretty good considering how busy they were. Well priced and tasty food.
Upper deck always has a great vibe going and always enjoy it. Sadly I have to say that food was a bid of a let doing. The eisben is good but unfortunately the fat was soggy and not crisp enough. We ordered 2 burgers, both double cheese but, they where totally different. One had baisting sauce and the other one did not, one had gherkins and the other not. Also I think the order got confused but we belive one of them was also a veggie pattie. The service was overall speedy and always with a smile but the food can have a relook. I will go back for the drinks and the live music, but I will give the food a skip

Brilliant service, friendly waiters. Food a bit of a let down; friend and I ordered the same thing, double cheese burgers. His came with basting but tasted like soy... Mine came without basting but was juicy and tender. His also came with gherkins mine did not, mine came with a pinky mayo, his did not. No consistency considering we ordered the same thing... Other friends ordered the eisbine and the schnitzel which were good.
Great as always. Upgraded the menus a bit and has a great festival feel. Had the Mighty Mince with a Castle Light (which wasn't cold as we hoped). The breakfast was cheap and cheerful, as much as you can hope to get from mince and egg on a bun, just that. Overall very nice!
Good music, good food, good cocktails. Really a nice place to chill. .............................................................................................................................................................................................................
Went here for the rugby, nice vibe to it, they have live music and tons of rides and jungle gyms for the kids, we had their nachos which was delicious how ever I would've loved more jalapenos. My other friend had their eisbein which is gigantic but he enjoyed it thoroughly, both their jam jars are dangerous because they taste so good but are potent! Our waitress was excellent. Nice place to drive out to if you're near Harties.

The Upper Deck Restaurant. You will love this place if you are an Afrikaans music lover. We went there on a Saturday and it certainly looks like this is the place to be when in or around Harties. The place was packed and there was some live Afrikaans entertainment. People were dancing, there were two bachelors parties going on and everybody was in a seriously good mood!
I have to say, I really enjoyed myself here and I would definitely come back. I live in JHB so it is a little bit of a drive but it is well worth it. Especially if you want to experience something a little bit different!
This place was busy! Our service was great though. All of us ate the Eisbein after I read some rave reviews about it. It was delicious! I am not joking, that was the best Eisbein I have ever eaten. It was huge as well. I could not finish it so I had two very happy dogs later that night. The veggies that came with it was very tasty as well. I wish I took a photo of those monster Eisbeins but I guess you will have to go see for yourself what the fuss is about!
I am rating it a 4 based on my overall experience and I will definitely visit this restaurant again. I suggest you do as well if you find yourself in that part of the country!
Really good pub food, amazing eisbeins. The place is very busy on Sundays best is to come in early. There is also random bands that perform on the weekends some good some are so so.
Great BunnyChow! Good vibes and good service. Good for a quick lunch. Good value. Next time Eisbeins.... they looked amazing comming out the kitchen.
I visited the upper deck earlier this year and devoured some of the most delicious sushi with a glass of white. Cant wait to visit again soon.
Had such a nice lazy Saturday lunch here. Eisbein was tops and Washington just made our day with his smile and excellent service. Thank you also to the management team as I can see you know what you are doing.

Beautiful rustic eatery and bar. Atmosphere is wonderful and the staff are great. Definitely a place to visit when in the area.
The atmosphere is great and lively, live artists singing on weekends, place for kids to play , secure parking and the food is incredible!!!!
Really great pub, music and party venue on a Sunday if you want an out-of-town trip to Harties. Thoroughly recommend their Eisbein
A great place to always visit. Very popular over weekends and has an awesome atmosphere on a Sunday. Great music, and awesome crowds of people. Service was perfect and the food is just delicious.
Their eisbein is fantastic !! Highly recommended.
The food and the service was amazing, thank you Washington for your impeccable attention to detail. You had like 7 tables that you were waiting on and we never felt neglected. You're a superman. You deserved the generous tip we left. We'll definitely come back for you 👊🏾

We haven't visited Upperdeck in years, but my Dad always said that they had the best eisbein. So we had to pay them another visit so see if it was still the same as he remembered.
We were a table of 6 people and 5 of us had the eisbein. Nobody was disappointed!! It was massive and super crispy! Served with some tasty chips too!
We went on a public holiday, there was a good vibe with live music and many other diners. Despite them being really busy, we didn't have to wait long for our food at all.
Our server was extremely friendly and even made a few jokes.
I would definitely go back! Maybe on a Friday night since that's when the Eisbein is on special 😁
We ended off our Harties day at Upperdeck Restaurant. They had a Barcardi cocktail special, for R25 per cocktail - oh and I had a field day! We had lamb curry with poppadum and sambals for eats. Wow! The best lamb curry I’ve ever had; it was so good, we even forgot to photograph the meal🥲.
Always good fun and entertainment
Outing to Harties for the day and decided to have a bite to eat at Upperdeck. Although it was very busy our waiter was very friendly and quick to take our orders. From the start he apologized for some of the items not available due to the deep fryer being broken so we all opted for burgers and steak burgers. Even though we waited a while the food was worth the wait. Those burgers were juicy and well cooked, the best I've had in a very long time, they were perfect.
The service from our waiter Dolly went out of her way to make sure everything at our table went smoothly. The restaurant was very busy but we did not wait long for the food.
The eisbein was done to perfection, the mutton curry was tasty and the vegetarian bake delicious.
We will definitely come more to this restaurant.
Popped in to the Upper Deck restaurant on our way back from a holiday resort.Decided to have breakfast.We both ordered the Bikers breakfast,@R80 was good value for the money.Breakfast was good.Service was a bit slow.The place was reasonably empty For a Friday morning, maybe we were a bit early.There are over a hundred tables ,so I can imagine that the place pumps when busy,There are a couple of bars there as well..Also there is the Upper deck bus which you can book for between R350 - Approximately R450.For a tour around the area.Which includes four drinks.The toilets are clean.
There are also a few stalls that you can browse around in.Disappointment was the condition of Hartebeespoort dam.
Full of Hyacinthas.
We had already tucked in when we decided to take photos of our meal.
The Upperdeck Restaurant is abuzz...good food, good service and fantastic live music will have us returning time and again.
We weren't too hungry so we ordered burgers that were made in good time and was quite delicious, including the side of chips. Milkshakes were okaaay. The music was great.
They have a varied menu and judging from the plates leaving the kitchen, the crispy eisbein was a popular choice.
The music was amazing.
Great crowd, including a groom asking for shots because he was tying the knot, awesome vibe and the music was fantastic...did I mention that?!
An adjoining flea market, the many arts, craft and fruit stalls that pepper the street, makes for interesting browsing while you walk off your meal.
Have a few hours to spare? While them away at the Upperdeck.
Loadshedding menu was a bit bland and not what their food is normally.
The atmosphere is great as always and if you go there. Do try their ribs and steak. Yum!!! First to actually get the meat to a perfect medium.
