The Thirsty Oyster Tavern
Mark, Annie and our fabulous staff welcome you to The Tavern – The Thirsty Oyster Tavern – where you will be greeted by the same familiar faces, enjoy the same delicious food and meet old friends and new at THE ONE AND ONLY TAVERN in the historic Old Harbour in Gordon’s Bay. A warm thank you to our locals and regulars – without you winter would be just that, winter!! We would also like to thank our patrons who fly and drive far and wide to enjoy our hospitality. So, if you haven’t been, we hope to see you soon.
Going on 24 years, we have grown from a fisherman’s pub to a very successful, well patronised seafood restaurant. Our kitchen has been enlarged three times. We have enclosed the entrance deck, enlarged the dining area and added an upstairs deck that boasts a spectacular view overlooking False Bay with Table Mountain in the background – not to mention the most spectacular sunsets!
Rasta stands guard on his wrecked ship and we welcome you to enjoy our mouthwatering dishes, live music on weekends and just so you know, we only close 2 days of the year: Christmas day is for familia and New Year’s day we re-charge.
The photos below, some taken by our patrons, showcase our beautiful harbour and surrounding beaches.
