Fourways has done the most to earn its place in Joburg's proverbial jol hall of fame, but is often overlooked when it's time for something a little more chill. We're here to let you know that the food in Fourways has range! There are plenty of fabulous spots to sit down for a bite to eat, and we've highlighted some of our favourites you may not have heard of.
Old Ducky French Café
This charming French bistro in Pineslopes is run by a mother-daughter duo with an impressive array of culinary accolades to their names. Take in the eccentric, duck-themed decor while enjoying the rich, flavourful cuisine France is so famous for. Every item on the menu is a treasure, so you'll want to keep coming back.
The Secret Tea Garden
Cake and cocktails among the flowers? Yes, please. Head to this charming venue in Norscot for a tranquil sit-down in the gardens. This is a gorgeous space to host a celebration, and the friendly management team are happy to guide you through their packages for baby showers, kitchen teas, and birthdays. There are frequent sip-and-paint events held here, too!
Yamakado & MyPot
This popular spot in Cedar Square is actually two incredible restaurants in one! Pop into Yamakado for a wide array of East Asian dishes or follow the passage into MyPot for a traditional Chinese hotpot feast. You'll be planning your next visit before you've even left.
Papa Pronto
It's hard to miss this gorgeous glass building that decorates Witkoppen like a glossy Christmas ornament. The real treat is stepping inside, though, where you'll find fantastic pizza and multitudes of other generously portioned Italian classics.
Mohavi Thai Restaurant
Mohavi has skilfully integrated popular elements of traditional South African favourites into Thai cuisine to create a menu that makes our mouths water. Expect a sophisticated dining experience as you indulge in beautifully plated dishes, ranging from sushi to curries and stir-fries.
If you're on the hunt for food in Fourways, this really is just the tip of the [very tasty] iceberg. It seems like a new restaurant opens every week, so you're spoiled for choice no matter what you're craving.
