Welcome Winter with a Rosemary Fillet
01 Apr 12 - 29 May 12
To welcome winter we’ve decided to give our regulars a very special treat and so for the months of April and May we will be offering you a Monday Special of two Rosemary Fillets for the price of one!

The deal is simple – on Monday’s, during April and May, choose from a 200g fillet at R140 or the 300 g at R160 and you will receive a FREE 200g Rosemary Fillet. This comes with a choice of chips, baked potato or a side salad; veggies are an optional extra and to avoid us going bankrupt, we sadly cannot allow any byo wines.

Booking is advised, as our tables for two are limited, but at this price why not bring the whole family, the boss, the staff, long lost friends, blind dates, old dates, new dates, in fact anyone you want to impress...just make sure that they love rosemary and fillet!
Super Rugby
24 Feb 12 - 14 Jul 12
Yes, that is true! The opening Game will be screening live at Barristers from 08:35 on 24 February 2012 and we will be serving the Mighty Barristers’ Breakfast during all breakfast broadcasts of the 2012 competition.

In case you forgot, the Mighty Barristers Breakfast comprises; two eggs, crispy bacon, baked beans, tomato, toast, coffee and for the early Super XV games on TV, a FREE Castle Draft (Voucher – only redeemable after 10:00 am)

All this for R35-00

We must be crazy - but we do love our rugby at Barristers and this year we be at Newlands with Schalk and the boys for the final!
Schalk Burger & Sons – Welbedacht Wines
02 Mar 12 - 04 Aug 12
Schalk may be nursing a knee injury at present, but it hasn’t kept him away from Barristers. So much so that we’ve been privileged to listed the family wines from their Welbedagcht Estate. These are the Meerkat (Chenin and Pinotage – available by the glass – Sauvignon Blanc is being released in May!) as well as the Welbedagcht Pinotage and top of the range Cricket Pitch!

For the duration of this year’s Super XV we will be giving away 10 autographed bottles of Welbedagcht Cricket pitch. These are collector’s pieces, having been signed by both Schalk’s (Senior and Junior) who are only one of eight Father and Son’s to play for the Springboks!

We also have two 3l Double Magnums to be won after each semi-final.

The Grand Prize for the 2012 Super XV final is Schalk Burger’s 2012 Super XV rugby jersey, which has been framed and has pride and place at Barristers until 4th August 2012, after which it could be yours.

How do you enter? Simply buy any of the wines above at Barristers and you can enter. Ask your Waitress for details.
Free Seminar and Business Meeting Facilities

It is advisable to meet with us in advance and to discuss your requirements, in terms of seating plans, use of audio visual equipment and refreshments and well as your budget.


Description:
BARRISTERS has always been a favorite meeting spot in the Southern Suburbs. Situated in the heart of Newlands Village, we continue to provide warmth, friendship and good cheer. Whether for a casual glass of wine, a great meal (we still serve the best steaks in Cape Town) or simply a warm and inviting destination to meet special friends, BARRISTERS is perfectly positioned to help you celebrate life’s special occasions.

Having a comprehensive and interesting wine list, with many wines served by the glass and regular tastings, we are confident that we will have a wine to satisfy the most discerning pallet.

Our newly revamped bar and deck areas offer a wonderful venue for entertaining and with ten beers on tap, all ice cold, we are the best spot to watch sporting events on our big screen TV’s. Being in the heart of Newlands, we are unashamedly Stormers supporters!

Our menus cater for all tastes and budgets, from our traditional pan fried prawns (still served on their own brass burner) to our ever popular Roquefort sauce, we continue the tradition of offering something for all tastes including delicious seafood and vegetarian platters.

Under direct management of the owners and with a motivated and highly competent Management Team, we remain one of the few independent restaurants with a long and successful heritage which we constantly strive to uphold

Sunday Set Menu value for money, 16 Jul 2011
Reviewer: D.H.Smith (Adventurousness: I wish i had married a celebrity chef!)

Comments: I had the good fortune of enjoying the Sunday set lunch last Sunday and it was just great. Beautifully roasted lamb served with crispy roast potatoes, cauliflower with cheese sauce and baby carrots. This well known restaurant in Newlands has long been renowned for value for money and good fare. The weekday lunch time specials are also excellent. The friendly General Manager Brent and Owner Lance, go the extra mile to make one feel welcome and the staff are courteous and attentive.

Great!, 17 Nov 2010
Reviewer: anonymous (Adventurousness: )

Comments: The renovations are looking good, and definitely working, had to wait in the bar area for a table. The deck was full. The food was mouth watering and the beers were cold. Good selection of beers on tap.
