Random Harvest Tea Garden Johannesburg
Places to eat in Johannesburg are hard-pressed to beat us, especially if you are looking for a relaxed, daytime outdoor-eating experience.
Tea Garden in Johannesburg
Our garden-like setting is charming. Surrounded by plants and birdsong, you will be forgiven for wanting to be with us all day. Eat “al-fresco” in the shade of spreading Monkey-Thorn Acacias in summer or in front of a cosy fire-place in winter, and enjoy fresh, tasty food made with the best ingredients.
Our menu is a simple but delicious selection of homemade sweet and savoury foods; keeping our old firm favourites, but constantly adding new and interesting items. Linda’s Italian heritage is evident – everything is homemade and fresh. The milk is from the small dairy herd, as is the homemade butter. The jam is made by Linda’s mother (people travel miles for it!) and the bread is home-made. The green salads are supplemented with produce from the veggie garden.
Eating out with a young family is easy with us. We have a sandpit, and plenty of space for children to explore safely. We do however ask that children are not left unsupervised - we are eager for all our customers to have the best experience possible while with us, including those that come for the peace and quiet of our little piece of heaven.
Many items on the menu are suitable for our younger visitors and we are constantly building on our kiddies menu. We are the perfect meeting place, for friends and family. An easy drive from the centre of Johannesburg, Krugersdorp and Pretoria, and close to the Cradle of Humankind. Business lunches and breakfasts are popular, as we are a quiet venue, and conducive to concentration.
See how many bird species (we have 166 on our list) you can identify whilst enjoying your meal or tea. Or wander around and bird watch after your meal.
