While the Cape Winelands may be known for its sprawling wine farms, there are also many pubs to cosy up in for a slap-up special. From pizza deals to two-for-one burgers, here are some must-try pub lunch specials in the Winelands.

Elephant and Barrel (Franschhoek)

Serving traditional pub fare with breathtaking views of the Groot Drakenstein Mountains, the Elephant and Barrel – named after the elephants that once roamed the area – is also a great spot for a moreish lunch for less. If you visit on a Monday, you can opt for a chicken or beef burger and chips for just R50, while on Thursdays Hawaiian and Regina pizzas are R50.
