The Cabin Restaurant Doringbaai

The Cabin Restaurant, Doringbaai.  The first restaurant to open its doors in Doringbaai and we are still giving you our very best!

The Cabin Restaurant, with its unspoilt sea view is in the beautiful fishing village known as Doringbaai on the West Coast of South Africa.  The Cabin has been going for 35 years and is known for delicious seafood.

The Cabin Crew recently had the amazing opportunity to work with Bertus Basson, Chef and TV personality, as one of 12 restaurant make-overs for television.  Bertus gave us two brand new, focused seafood menus for you to choose from as well as a kitchen make-over with new equipment.  He and two of his chefs also trained our staff.

Misi Overturf, Decor Expert, and her team transformed the interior and exterior for a fresh new minimalistic look.

We cannot express our unending gratitude enough to this team of creatives!

One of the greatest spin-offs of the make-over is that our menus now consist of typical West Coast food and are much more focused on what is available locally.  Our recipes showcase our  cultural and food memories.

To watch Bertus and Misi and yours truly (Thea and Reynel) in action – Episode 3 of Season 2 of “In die Sop”, produced by Homebrew films will be on Showmax in the very near future.

New at The Cabin Restaurant Doringbaai:  Free coffee for the driver!

My dad – who passed away not so long ago – introduced me to this concept when I visited him and my mom in New Zealand while he was terminally ill. It gives the driver a chance to stretch legs when fetching the coffee and be more alert on the road.

Before he became to weak to drive we spent a lot of time on the road with him showing us his favourite spots in NZ. It was bittersweet as we also knew that it would be his last visit to each of these places. He was a lover of good coffee and had his fair share of “Free coffee for the driver.”

The memories bring tears to my eyes but, as a tribute to my wonderful parents, from this day forth (11/08/22) any driver of any vehicle is welcome to stop for a delicious cup of MIKO coffee at The Cabin in Doringbaai, sit down or take away.

We wish you a safe trip to your destination.

PS:  Be on the lookout for the sign on the pavement!
