It was my first visit to Leafy Greens and I was so impressed and blown away by the colourful selection of amazing food that had been prepared for the buffet. It was a feast for the eyes and an taste explosion for the tastebuds! The meal was amazing and delicious! The setting was just so tranquil and so refreshing to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city and into nature. Enjoyed walking around the gardens and seeing all the fresh produce. The shop is great too and I treated myself to the recipe book and can't wait to try out some new meals at home. Had great company and thank you to Evan and Yvette for treating me and Anthony for sharing in the outing. So worth the drive out to experience such great food and thanks to everyone involved in preparing such amazing food - you can see how much effort and love has gone into preparing the food ...l will DEFINITELY be back!!!

A great experience! Set in a very quiet and tranquil environment. Apart from the restaurant which serves vegan food there is also a shop selling a wide variety of health food. Indeed worth paying a visit!

I was quite hesitant when I heard this place is fully vegetarian. When I visited this, I didn’t have a heart to leave this place. It was so beautiful, and the food was delicious. Well, let my photos speak further.

Please do visit this place to refresh yourself.

We have been to Leafy Greens a number of times but not enough. Everytime is a deliciously indulgent experience. The quality and variety always delights. We especially have loved to eat outside when the weather permits. The natural setting is absolutely lovely and soothes my soul. Also had a fabulous xmas lunch in 2019.

One of my favorite spots to just unwind, have a good healthy meet and walk amongst their beautiful garden of fruit trees. Definitely recommend

Leafy Greens is such a magical spot to spend your day. The short drive to Muldersdrift immediately releases you from the city's rat race and the organic farming on the estate allows for a perfect place to unwind for a moment before or after enjoying a meal at the café. The food options are good and the buffet is full of variety and interesting options. I love this place and its vibe and definitely recommend it.

Incredible food, beautiful setting and all guilt free. What more could you ask for!?Well, they could open for dinner, and be closer to Randburg/Sandton. However they are worth the trip out of town! Highly recommended!

Beautiful setting and garden this cafe is a true gem. Tranquil and relaxing and a true fresh taste adventure. Me and my beautiful Natalie stopped there for lunch. We had a chocolate bliss smoothie and a almond smoothie...both yummy. Then we opted to share the pizza...amazingly flavourful and crammed with toppings. We then strolled around the garden a bit and popped in the shop. Worth a visit if you are in the area!!!

Really good food in a beautiful location!

This restaurant is about more than just serving food. It's a whole experience. You can take a scenic walk through the vegetable garden and orchards, where they grow many of the ingredients used in their dishes. Or you can lie on the lush grass and soak up some sunlight. The restaurant has a very laid-back feel to it and the views from the outside tables are stunning. The only issue with eating outside is that you get quite a lot of bees buzzing around your drinks and food.

We had the Sunday lunch buffet, and between the four of us, we tried pretty much everything on the menu. There were many different options and most of the food was very flavourful (which is often not the case with healthy vegetarian/vegan restaurants). My personal favourites were the pizza slices, the creamy broccoli and cauliflower, the cabbage "meat" balls, the french onion dip, the sprout salad, the iced tea and the malted carob drink. The sushi was the only food that I found rather flavourless (or maybe I just didn't see the sauce that goes with it). The one downside of having the buffet is that it is difficult to determine whether the food contains ingredients to which you may be allergic. I think that the restaurant should have more descriptive name cards with a list of allergens for each item on the buffet table. 

All-in-all it was a wonderfully relaxing Sunday afternoon out. For anyone that cares about healthy, plant-based and sustainable eating, a visit to this restaurant is an absolute must. They even use biodegradable straws!

Great vegan food, using garden to table food. Take time to enjoy the serene space you in. New cocktail menu is fab. Could have more wait staff at busy times.

I absolutely love the concept of this restaurant.

Most of the food on the menu is gluten free. It is confusing on the menu as some items are marked as "gluten free" and some not, although it claims 90% are. So it is difficult to self-determine what you are able to eat without asking the waiter. I'd suggest that the restaurant clearly mark all items.

We ate the pancakes with berries inside. A little tart, but to be expected with fruit like berries. Perhaps a little crunch or break from the mushy tartness could improve the dish. But overall very good. We also enjoyed the beetroot burger. Not for the mainstream palate. It was both loved and disliked around the table.

The service was friendly, but neglected after we got our food.

The decor is artsy, bohemian and perhaps a little hippy with the multicolored table cloths. Although it fits well with the theme.

The ice cream is very unique and delicious.

Cappuccinos are available in a range of dairyfree milk options and beautifully prepared.

In general, a blessing for a gluten free diet. A little different for those not used to a healthier, alternative lifestyle, but a good change and experience.

Nutritious, healthy but tasty food served in a tranquil and relaxing atmosphere, served with a smile. This really is a little gem to retreat to when wanting to escape the hustle of Jozi!

It was my first time at the restaurant and I was amazed. The beautiful gardens filled with organic fruit and vegetables was a sight for sore eyes. The food at the restaurant was absolutely delicious and very well presented. The service was warm, friendly and efficient. The only advice to the owner is make sure that your baby high chairs are cleaned all the time. I had to wipe down the chair with wet wipes before putting my baby into it. Other than that we had a lovely lunch and a wonderful experience.

I went for the buffet and the food and drinks were mind-blowingly amazing! The best comfort food I've had in a long time. I look forward to trying their regular menu. A must have experience for vegans in the area.

I recently visited the cafe and had the best vegan food experience ever! Their smoothie was incredibly refreshing, and the vegan burger was beyond delicious. The flavors were outstanding, and the quality of ingredients truly shone through. I can't wait to go back for more!

It's a good place to have a walk on the farm, Kids playing area, shop for fresh veggies and fruit harvested from the farm. Then enjoy the food in the restaurant. We loved it!

Best tomato soup I have ever had! Incredible value for money because the food is so flavoursome. After lunch, you can have some wine and go for a walk in the gardens.

This is an amazing little restaurant with large variety of different vegan and vegetarian food. The food is all made to order so be prepared to wait a bit, trust me it is worth the wait. The food is absolutely delicious and is seasoned to perfection with every bite being absolutely scrumptious . I would highly highly recommend this restaurant to anyone to the farm here. The food is also very fresh with some of the ingredients sourced just a stone throw's away in the organic garden.

I would have loved to give them 5 stars but we specifically went for a smoothie bowl on a hot day and were told that the kitchen won’t make that after 11am. So unreasonable! I had a smoothie for lunch but couldn’t have a smoothie bowl?!!! Just ridiculous! The smoothie was good though.
