New dining experience: The Bus Stop @ Stellenbosch Vineyards

It’s big, it’s bold and it’s yellow! The Bus Stop has arrived at Stellenbosch Vineyards with the promise of serving the best burgers, pizzas and waffles this side of the R44! What’s more, this casual eatery is situated in the centre of the pond on the Welmoed farm, sporting a bright yellow 1980 Bedford bus as the heart of the restaurant. This unique concept gives a twist to the cuisine sensation that is the ‘food truck revolution’, with the bus refurbished into a bar serving and highlighting the innovative Infusions, the farm’s heritage brand Welmoed and the home brand Stellenbosch Vineyards. The menu features craft beer, joined by wood fired pizzas and burgers from the open-air kitchen.
