Absolutely the best restaurant / coffee shop in Stilbaai. Best location on the beachfront, plenty of parking, great decor and atmosphere. Owner run so you know they have passion in every aspect of the establishment. Really good menu with a separate take-away kiosk. I have been there a number of times and never been disappointed with anything we ordered. All our guesthouse guests that have been there are very happy with the whole experience.

Amazing location. Had the best weather. And here comes the manager that was plain rude to us. We didn't even finish our drinks or order food. Would not recommend. Unless new management can take over.

With such a great location Die Seekombuis could be one of the hot spots in the Paternoster area, but certainly not while managed by the current owners. We booked our wedding at Die Seekombuis and they absolutely tried to make it as difficult as possible for us to organise our wedding and to stick to any kind of wedding plan. They kept changing their stories and completely disregarded our wishes in spite of our discussions, planning and requests, and not to mention all the money we spent there. Here are some examples of why we found the owners at Die Seekombuis to be bullies to their guests, to be dishonest, unreliable and to have a complete disregard for the people spending money at their venue: 1.We booked and paid a venue fee, but in spite of that they booked two other functions for the same day making no effort for these functions not to interfere with each other. It was left up to our wedding party to chase people away so we could set up and prepare for the wedding on the day. In hind sight we should have asked for our venue fee back. 2.When we started to set up they suddenly wanted to change the pre-drinks and bread table serving area because they had another table booked there. This is now after having several discussions and planning conversations with them. 3.We asked for cutlery and glasses to be set on the tables beforehand which they didn't do. When they started to serve the food the guests didn't have cutlery. 4.We asked them before the time if we can book and pay the DJ to play until midnight which they confirmed more than once with us. On the wedding evening one of the owners went to the DJ and told him he should stop playing at 11pm and they will then close the bar. This again caused our best man to have an argument with them as we already paid the DJ to play until 12am and this was not what we agreed on. When the guests heard the bar will close earlier they started flocking to the bar to stock up and their bar service could not keep up with the rush. 5.The bathroom area had such a stench that some guests got nauseous just going in there. It was so bad that we consider reporting this to a health inspector. 6.The logic of serving a plate of cooked veg and salad on its own that stood on the tables getting cold while guests waited for the plates with the rest of the main meal to be served on a seperate plate goes beyond me. 7.Upon settling the corkage fee the next morning the one owner was rude and accused us of being unnecessarily difficult the previous evening. Really? After everything they did and all the discomfort they caused? 8.After the wedding, word got out of the terrible service we received and we started to hear more stories from other couple's weddings that were ruined by these owners. They even chased a wedding couple away on the evening of their wedding because they complained. We are easy going people and chose this venue because of the location and unpretentious appearance, but the treatment we received from these people were shocking to say the least. We will never return or support Die Seekombuis in any way ever again. Hopefully their dishonesty and disrespect for their guests will catch up to them eventually and cause them to close down.
