About

Wijnhuis has recently reopened after an extensive renovation of the historic Dorpsmeent building. Situated in the vibrant historical center near Kerk and Dorp streets, the renovated building now houses the "SAD" South African design studio and the "Stellenbosch Wine Bar," adjacent to Wijnhuis. Guests can opt for a light lunch under the oak trees or in the open-air courtyard. The upstairs bar and functions area are ideal for private events. Wijnhuis caters to a diverse clientele, including students from Stellenbosch University, tourists, local business people, and families.

Art and Vino

The artworks on display in the restaurant are from the adjoining SMAC Art Gallery, representing primarily South African and African artists. Visits to the gallery can be arranged through the restaurant. The wine list focuses on the Stellenbosch district, while also featuring selections from other regions and districts. This approach provides a broad representation of the contrasting climates and cultivars that the Western Cape is known for.
