Last night we joined the Old Gaol team at the launch of their new evening menu, as always the atmosphere was warm and the food was great! Together with Hermanuspietersfontein winery we had good food and good wine with new friends!
I can highly recommend their new style of serving food tapas style but with a Swellendam/South African way! I will not try to write all the names of everything we tried but I can promise you that it was awesome!
Make your way to Old Gaol Restaurant this winter Wednesday Thursday and Friday nights, and do not hesitate to try it ALL with a nice glass (no no, Bottle) of Hermanuspietersfontein's wine! I will recommend "Posmeester"
Thank you Ilze & Wynand for a fantastic night out!
Jul verdien 5 sterre vir beste, vriendelike personeel wat altyd flink help en die produk is altyd die heel beste! Ons kom gou weer!
Since day one all our Windmill Guesthouse customers have their breakfast served at Old Gaol by Wynand and his friendly staff. Thank you for looking after us.
We enjoyed a cozy evening at Old Gaol as a group with friends from abroad. The Tapas menu were refreshing and the perfect way to social over a meal. Dirk and his team were the perfect host and made sure we receive excellent service. Highly recommended.
Heerlike ontbyt, lekkerste cappuccino's in een van die mooiste juwele van die Kaap! Gaan beslis weer kom!!
An amazing time spent with Wynand and his staff, food was excellent, atmosphere homely, and chatting to Wynand like long lost buddies. Well worth evening with my beautiful wife and best friend Tanya ❤
Great milktert! The best...with great service!
Excellent food, fantastic atmosphere. Will most definitely come back again.
Well worth the drive to Swellendam! The most wonderful curry and bobotie you will find. Do not miss out on the authentic milk tarts as well.
The atmosphere is warm and friendly. Delicious food and good service. A must if you are in Swellendam.
The food was very tasty and well prepared. We had an incredible bobotie and home-made chicken pie.
Lovely restaurant with outdoor seating and great service.
Best coffee I've had in a long while! Breakfast under the grape vines was really good value and was excellent. Service was prompt and efficient. Will be back here for sure.
Such a nice place to come. You can sit outside in the shadow of a big tree ehen it's hot. We had capuccino and carrott and chocolate cake - delicious!
We had a lovely brunch and enjoyed it very much. Staff very friendly. Can recommend this place.
We enjoyed lunch at the Old Gaol while being on our way to Mossel Bay. The place is very lovely and the service is such a pleasure. The lunch was ok, the cakes though were amazingly good! Try the traditional milk tart!
A lovely tucked away restaurant that has outside seating under trees. Good food and great value.
Always stop at Old Mill for coffee. Very friendly staff, beautiful gardens and ofcourse great coffee
Very nice spot. The Moerse Roosterkoek Burger fills the stomach for the long road!! Very nice quiches as well.
Small Town GOOD FOOD. Friendly service and stunning views.

Very good cuppucino and milktart. Life is short enjoy the Autumn trees
Nice place with really nice employees. Food was good but not extraordinary. Would recommend it!
Pleasantly surprised !! Good and Friendly service with a Owner/Manager to welcome guests. Stunning designed menu and great selection to choose from.
Looking forward to a selection of imported beer with my next visit !
We enjoyed a fantastic cup of coffee with the most amazing fresh bread with a cream cheese dip. A great place to stop for a sunset snack
We utilised the outdoor play area to watch my daughter whilst enjoying good food and some light sun.
We were seated outside under the tree and enjoyed very good service today. Our waitress was very keen to always make sure we were happy. Reading the other reviews it looks like Old Gaol is really making an effort. The tapas menu has a lot of potential and this is the only reason why I would only rate it 4 out of 5. A more balanced and more classical tapas menu would make it a 5/5.
Once again I came here for their "moerkoffie" brewed using a low-tech traditional method and was delighted with it. Our other orders of burger, quiche and milkshakes all went down with lots of positive comments from all who sampled them.
Nice breakfast or lunch with Gin & Bear on tap. The best coffee & sweet treats in town, served in an arty interior setting. Easy accessible from the N2, either from Cape Town or Mosselbay with ample parking space. Exquisite cottages at Old Mill, directly next to the restaurant for lovely countryside stay over too...
We had a lovely lunch break here. We tried the home made chicken pie which was really nice. The homemade lemonade is also good. It is a cosy nice place for a stop over and I can only recommend to eat here. Staff was nice and friendly. Food came very quick!
