I have never allowed myself to experience the level of savagery that was brought out of me because of how amazing my breakfast was. I didn’t know what I wanted when I got there and the manager, Moses, asked me what I’m looking for and I told he what I like and he just said: “No, I’ll sort you out!” And so he did, he got me a meaty platter, which unlocked absolutely savagery - after seeing this Moses went to the back and warmed up a cloth for me and brought it to me so I could wipe away all the mess that was caused by my savagery, on my face and hands - he did this, without me even asking for it. Knew exactly what I needed and served me so amazingly.
Amazing amazing place!
I dont get out much as I run a very busy business. My man and I popped in for an impulsive lunch. What an amazing Tuesday afternoon we just had! Food was delicious, portions generous, staff were great. Felt relaxed and could have sat for the rest of the arvie. Very happy to have spent my off time in a lovely spot. Turkish Delight cheesecake... yum yum yum!! �
Have been to Lua a couple of times now and the food has been great. When first looking at the menu it might seem pricey, but the portions and quality of food is absolutely worth what you pay. I am always willing to pay for quality ❤. In saying that, I feel the food takes a tad bit long to come out so not exactly a spot you can have a quick lunch during your break which is a total shame. Food aside, the ambiance is just out of this world. The space they have created here is rustic but chic giving you that cozy country feel. In summary, if you are looking for a beautiful lunch or breakfast spot to catch up with some friends and have great food in Meyersdal, this is your spot.
This is definitely the place for you if you want something laid back and different. The views of the 'secret garden' is calming and the food is worth the wait, it definitely did not disappoint.
If you are after a typical fast pace of the more common franchise setups this is one to avoid, but if you want to meet up and have a relaxing visit with people you care about this is definitely a great place. We loved it!!!
I met my friend for brunch a few Sundays ago and what a treat! The atmosphere, service, presentation of the food was superb. The waitron left us to chat and was on hand but not intrusive. Well done guys.
Omg! Amazing food, awesome atmosphere and just perfect for a brunch. I cannot express just how much we loved the food😍🤩 definitely a hidden gem
Have you been to try their new winter menu? It has something old (classic dishes) something new (lots of yummy new foods), something borrowed (that’s the friend you take along) and something blue (menu colours). Just devine.

Me and my wife always drove past this gem everyday on the way to work and back. Finally decided to go in and see whats happening. What we found was a break away from urban life, with a homey feel to it. Just had a breakfast but it was amazingly good and Lua will have us coming back for more! Well done guys, a peaceful, friendly, and awesome place.
This little gem has become our favorite breakfast escape in the south. A very homey feel with an almost rustic element to it. Very laid back and elegant at the same time. Coffee, milkshake and any breakfast, we have tried them all. they ALL are amazing. The staff are friendly, but service can be slow at some times.
What a great gem in the middle of Meyersdal. The decor is lovely and the garden area is tranquil; the perfect spot for a coffee catch up or a chilled cocktail. The service is efficient and friendly.
I ordered the tuna panini but was informed that the panini's were sold out so it was replaced with rye bread which was delicious -tuna served with crisp apple and toast almonds was a first for me but definitely not a last.
This place is so pretty 😍🌸
Definitely a girls brunch / lunch / tea date kind of vibe! Our waiter handled our big birthday table of demanding portuguese ladies really well 😂👏
The stewed fruit and yogurt was a really interesting option and peaked my curiosity, although I soon realised a bit too sweet for me 🙈 but everything else was incredibly fresh and well presented!
But lets be honest, the best thing about brunch / birthdays = MIMOSAAAAASSSS :D
Definitely do that here.
This is one of the most delightful little eateries in Johannesburg... the decor is charming and the garden setting enchanting... you literally get to sit under the trees. The service was great and I have to say I was so glad that they did not have their vegetarian salad option available. As a vegan I was given an opportunity to create a salad, and it was sublime! I strongly urge the management to add my salad to the menu... it is definitely on of the best salads I have had in any restaurant in Johannesburg... I will be returning to Lua - for this meal!
Great spot with good service and delicious food, baked goods and beverages. On busier days though, the service can be a little slow but the quality of the food stays the same. Would definitely recommend.
What a gem of a restaurant - so under rated! The atmosphere, food and coffees are exceptional - was blown away by the stunning presentation - a must visit!
Great vibes n wonderful service at this place.. All the way from Randburg to have bfast.. Recommended by my niece who born day is the 31st July
Such a cute little coffee shop! It’s had a refurb since my last visit a long while ago. The coffee was delish and the toasties fresh and tasty. Very generous portion of chips and nice variety of cakes but we didn’t taste them.
They had a lot of staff on hand who were very cheery and alert to customers needs. Rose was our waitress who was really lovely and great service!
Lovely intimate garden setting. Blissful in between the light/white decor. Great cappucinos. Great food. Prices fair, some expensive but it is worth it. Come with an expectancy to wait (service is excellent but takes a while)...sit, have more coffee, bring a good book/journal or some company along. Parking is very limited though. A must visit in this busy life!
Nice place to relax... Good service and the food looks great. I do not know if it is value for money because we only had coffee .. Would definitely try the food next time
Still a good spot, though I can't help but feel that Lua has lost some of the charm that made it a favourite.
The atmosphere here is always truly lovely. Friendly staff, gorgeous environment. You almost forget you are on a main road.
I have only had breakfast here and only on weekends, but even when it's really busy, the service is excellent and the food doesn't take too long. My mom loves the coffee (especially the one with condensed milk).
I keep ordering the same thing because it's so delicious (Wrappi Di Wrap) but I intend to try something else some time.
I recommend this place highly.
This is a cute breakfast spot, the menu has great options at a low cost, just make sure you have patience when you visit as it's really busy so service might be slow, Sunday morning seem to be a peak time before 12, great for the whole family.
Beautiful, relaxing, great atmosphere just to wind down and enjoy a lovely meal. A menu with a big variety to choose from ... something for everyone. Sit inside or outside either way the atmosphere is relaxing. Love the little shop great new addition to Lua's. The staff is friendly and professional.
