As much as I would have loved to give a 5-star rating, I felt there was a small gap between the experience and what I had hoped for. The food was lovely, and the atmosphere and setting were beautiful. The one area that could be improved is the service. The staff could perhaps be a little warmer, more attentive, and proactive, as friendly and welcoming service really adds that special, homely feeling to an experience. That said, it is a beautiful property and definitely somewhere I would happily visit again. With a little more warmth and attentiveness from the team, I think it could easily become a “5-star” experience.

Absolutely beautiful grounds. Would recommend just to wander around and explore their farm shop and farm pantry (which we stopped at twice on our stay in the region). The food in the bakkery was delicious and service was great. Highly recommend.

We visited La Motte Artisanal Bakery & Garden Café for a birthday lunch, and had a great time. As you walk through the gardens and reach the café you already get a sense of what to expect. The café interior is quaint and tastefully decorated, with some sections having large windows to take advantage of the picturesque surroundings, and they also have some outdoor seating available for those perfect Spring and Summer days. For lunch, everything we tasted was beautifully presented and bursting with flavour. If you are just planning on popping in, at the bakery you can purchase some of their freshly baked breads and pastries to take home. What made the visit even better are the gardens and a nice kids' play area outside. If you have young kids in your group, I do recommend making a booking close by as the play area is a bit further away from some of the Café's tables. We really enjoyed the entire experience and will definitely be back in the future.

Not had the chance yet to try out any of their restaurants. But what exquisite gardens and views and walks. Beautiful old trees. Delightful squirrels. Fabulous play areas. 21/06/2026 Had takeaway cheesecake, carrot cake and a seeded bread loaf. Benita gave us excellent, helpful and friendly service👌🏻 And I think it was your Baker we met. Also very friendly, pleasant.

I can’t think of a better place for breakfast in the winelands, such a beautiful setting and delicious food. I went for the eggs benedict with bacon. Perfectly poached eggs, lemony hollandaise. Service was very efficient and friendly, and quick. But if you want an outdoor table in nice weather, it’s advisable to book
