It’s a generous place of authentic connection and celebration. Our Lapa Restaurant is surrounded by giant trees and with a central firepit that represents community.
Every evening after sunset, when the boom of a big brass gong blends with a traditional African welcome, guests are invited into the Lapa Restaurant for a sumptuous fireside feast. There is an array of local and international cuisine for you to enjoy a leisurely three-course dinner under the stars.
Fires spark, and s’mores and roosterbroodjies grill over the coals. There’s a walk-in refrigerated room with crisp salads, locally crafted cheeses and the Chef’s homemade ice-cream flavours, desserts and cake of the day. Our team serves up a wide choice of main dishes from South African braaied meats, roasts, game specialities and hearty stews to Asian-style stir-fries and Italian-style pastas.
It’s a time to relax into the night, nourish the body well and share stories about the day’s thrilling safari adventures. From across the river, you might hear the call of Black-backed Jackals or the roaring of Lions, reminding you that for all the luxury and comfort of our Lapa Restaurant experience, you are wonderfully immersed in the South African wilds.
