Top 5 Pub Bar Hangouts on the Dolphin Coast

Some might insist on their favorite Craft Beer. Some might insist the View is important. But to figure out the best pubs in town, simply follow the locals…

Siggi’s German Restaurant and Pub

Traditionally prepared German cuisine with imported German beer…Siggi’s has been a firm favorite among locals and visiting tourists for years – and has the Trip Advisor awards to prove it!

Nestled on a quiet corner in Salt Rock, the ocean waves provide a backdrop for warm European style hospitality. Siggi’s has found the ideal balance between ‘Family Restaurant’ and Fun Pub. The Kids Play Area is within comfortable sight of the wooden dining deck providing parents a happy meal of their own. This is a favorite hangout for locals, becoming particularly busy wet afternoons when farmers celebrate the windfall of both rain on their crops and the opportunity to celebrate with friends.

The East Oasis Trading Co

East Oasis is not your traditional smoke-filled ‘pub bar’, but is certainly a firm favorite among Ballito’s more discerning night revelers. Classed more as a trendy cocktail lounge and wine bar, East Oasis  warms as the night progresses and is the perfect pre-club meeting point. Enjoy an eclectic backdrop of international flavor with surprisingly moderately priced snacks to set an evening moving. Be sure to ask about their selection of Craft Beers too…

The Hops Ballito

Arguably the pub with the best view in town, The Hops offers your traditional pub grub and beer sort of fare…and bottomless Draught on Tap! A popular weekend afternoon hangout to watch dolphins and whales cruising the coastline,moving into early evenings with Live Entertainment. Popular place where singles can enjoy a lively night with friends or couples flee to for their weekly date night to recapture the freedom of their youth.

The Grandstand Sports Bar and Grill

A place where men can be men and sport is only better with a burger and beer with it. The Grandstand Sports Bar and Grill expands at the seams over major sports events, the multitude of television sets providing the ideal viewpoint for any play. Karaoke nights, Quizz Evenings and Two for One deals ensure there is always something happening at Grandstand. Considered by locals as ‘the late night place,’ no matter where your evening starts, it could well end here.

Saltyz on Roc

Your 100% local bar in Salt Rock, Saltyz is your home-away-from-home kinda place for many a barfly. Moderate drink prices, reasonable snack prices and you have the perfect recipe for long and regular visits to the bar.
