Started up by George's own celebrity singer, Elvis Blue, this coffee shop is a must-visit as you leave the airport if you have flown into town, as it will give you a great first impression of George. And they serve amazing coffee! Make sure you take a pic within the large yellow-framed coffee cup :-)

Sightseeing

A fun day out where you can pick your own strawberries and immerse yourself in farmlife. I would recommend doing the maze, having a strawberry milkshake, filling a holder with strawberries and taking a ride on the mini train.

The best pancakes in town! Please visit the Old Toll House and learn about the history of the Montagu Pass. It is run by volunteers and you'll be able to purchase two pancakes (served with cinnamon and sugar, and a slice of lemon on the side) and coffee for a R40 donation. It is well worth the drive!

A lovely wine farm set on top of the Outeniqua Mountains above George in the small village of Herold. If you are brave, and you're driving a 4x4, then head to Herold via the Montague Pass. Alternatively use the Outeniqua Pass route which has views to die for!
