The Harbour Rock restaurant – known to the locals simply as The Rock – is situated on the top of the cliff overlooking the bustling Hermanus harbour.
Owner, Francois Barnard, conceived the ingenious idea of building the restaurant on what is one of the most spectacular restaurant sites in South Africa. The building was designed with artful precision by Andrew Greef and was built, in 1997, using stone, steel and timber.
Over the years the interior and work spaces have changed (more than some staff members), but a constant element has always been the hard working philosophy of the staff, who strive to provide excellent food and pin point service in a beautiful environment.
