The Wijnhuis was established in 1997 in the charming Dorpsmeent building on Church Street in Stellenbosch. It is a charming venue in which one can conveniently sample wines from more than fifty (mainly) local producers. From the start the focus has been on boutique wineries and the Stellenbosch region. This has expanded to include token wines from other regions as well as some of the more iconic or big named Stellenbosch wines.

Uniquely one can taste as well as purchase from the wine shop or enjoy a  glass with dinner in the 200 seater restaurant.

Our menu is Mediterranean and light with daily specials making use of the region’s freshest and healthiest produce, whilst our winelist comprises of over 350 wines from 55 mainly Stellenbosch wineries. Following a major renovation in 2004, the Wijnhuis introduced a large range of tagliatas, carpaccios and venison dishes to its menu and these have proven very popular.

Most of the salads and vegetables that we serve originate on our farm in the Bainskloof area in Wellington. These include exotic Italian lettuce, tomatoes, fruits, even our own cold-pressed olive oil. The farm also recently started producing its own grappa from bushvine hanepoot grapes and its own red blend which will be available at the Wijnhuis in due course.
