BUSINESS NEWS - We are deeply honoured to be nominated by the George public in the following 12 categories: Food & Drink: Best Business Lunch; Best Breakfast; Best Burger; Best Coffee Shop; Best Family Friendly Restaurant; Best Outdoor Dining; Best Restaurant; Best Vegan/Vegetarian Restaurant; Best Beat the Budget Restaurant.

Founded by Marike Swanepoel - the entrepreneurial force behind Framboos - Bounty was born from her desire to build something more expansive: a restaurant where flavour and wellness could meet in harmony.

After years of success in the gelato world, Marike’s next chapter led to Bounty, a place where her love of good food and meaningful hospitality could shine on a larger scale.

Unlike trends that come and go, Bounty is rooted in a timeless philosophy: nourishing meals made from locally sourced produce, served in a setting that feels both elegant and approachable.

For vegetarians and vegans, Bounty is a Garden Route gem - European tourists have even described it as the best plant-based food they’ve had in South Africa. It’s a reputation earned through creative dishes that prioritise freshness, balance and bold flavour.

But Bounty is more than just a place to eat - it’s a space for people to grow. We believe in being a training ground and discipleship ministry, where team members are mentored, equipped and empowered for life beyond the restaurant. Staff are given the opportunity to develop practical skills, confidence and character - values that go beyond the kitchen.

Bounty is also deeply involved in the local community, partnering with organisations like the George Royal Academy, a sports school for underprivileged youth, and the Francois Ferreira Academy, providing their students with a space to gain practical, real-world experience in a professional kitchen and business environment.

Situated right next to the Giant Strawberry on the Redberry Farm, Bounty operates as its own entity, perfect for celebrations, corporate functions, kids’ parties and everything in between.
