Treat Dad to a feast by the sea this Father’s Day at the President Hotel
Father’s Day gifting can be tricky. Another pair of socks? Probably not. A new mug? He already has six.
Instead, why not swap the usual gifts for a long lunch, good company and a table filled with comforting South African flavours at one of Cape Town’s most iconic hotels?
This Father’s Day, the President Hotel in Bantry Bay is inviting families to gather for a generous sharing-style feast inspired by local culinary traditions, all set against the backdrop of the Atlantic Seaboard.
Designed to celebrate dads, grandfathers and father figures alike, the afternoon centres around a menu that pays tribute to the flavours many South Africans know and love. Think fire-cooked favourites, hearty dishes from land and sea, nostalgic desserts and a welcome draft beer for Dad on arrival.
Guests can expect everything from mini boerewors rolls, grilled roosterkoek and barbecue prawns to a vibrant selection of seasonal salads and freshly baked cumin and biltong spiced pull-apart bread.
From there, the feast moves to the fire, where Cape Malay mussel pots, curry lamb, lamb chops, sirloin, sosaties and crayfish tails take centre stage alongside an array of comforting sides.
And because no Father’s Day celebration is complete without something sweet, dessert includes local favourites such as peppermint crisp petit gâteaux, traditional Hertzoggies, milk tart verrines and warm malva pudding.
Located between the Atlantic Ocean and the slopes of Lion’s Head, the President Hotel has long been a favourite gathering spot for locals and visitors alike. With ocean views, relaxed coastal charm and a family-friendly atmosphere, it offers the perfect setting for an afternoon spent celebrating the father figures who deserve a little extra appreciation.
