Sundays are made for slowing down, catching up and, of course, a proper South African braai! 🔥

And at Vista, we're bringing all three together, with Table Mountain setting the scene.

Join us for our Summer Sunday Lunch, where the coals are hot, the flavours are bold and the only thing you need to worry about is whether you've left enough room for dessert!

Think succulent mint and lemon lamb chops, tender braaied beef fillet, juicy spatchcock chicken, traditional boerewors and all your favourite sides. From creamy potato and corn bake to chakalaka, grilled vegetables, fresh salads and artisanal breads, we've got your Sunday cravings covered.

And did we mention? Everything is halaal!

Finish things off with something sweet from our chef's weekly dessert selection, because no Sunday lunch is complete without a little indulgence.

R495 per person | Beverages excluded

Stay on the path. The fynbos beside it took a long time to grow.

Table Mountain is part of the Cape Floral Region, and many of the plants on the mountain grow nowhere else in the world. The dassies are wild too, however friendly they look, so please don't feed them.

Place your litter in the bins provided, even better if you separate it as per the different recycling bins. If you are hiking, please take it back down with you. It is our responsibility to keep the mountain litter free.

Have you ever hiked up or down Table Mountain - let us know in the comments.
