“A little pearl in Paarl!”
If you’re feeling hot and bothered, you should consider visiting this little oasis. My burger was delicious – a homemade patty that was oozing with juiciness topped with oven roasted tomatoes, onion marmalade and a melting slice of cheddar cheese. The service was friendly and efficient and the setting, a shaded courtyard, was cool and peaceful. I will definitely be…
“50th Birthday ”
The venue was superb and the food exactly as expected. The service was friendly and very efficient with no ‘ad hoc’ request too much. Nicolene ensured that personalised menu’s (they ‘customised their original menu to include a new item on our request). There were 15 people in our group with ages ranging from 16-73.

“Attention to detail”
If you enjoy a place where effort was put into the detail, then Knus is waiting for you. We Unfortunately the lovely Lemon Cake was not available.. The Roosterkoek is served with such care, the plate is beautiful! Wondeful milkshakes seved in a creative manner. There is inside and outside seating as well as a play area for children.
“LITTLE GEM!”
First time visitors, but definitely not the last time! Situated just below the Taal Monument in the Southern part of Paarl, close to the N1 Highway. Lovely intimate restaurant in beautiful setting. Can choose to sit inside or in the lovely garden. We had breakfast – beautiful presented and the food excellent and freshly prepared! Wonderful ambiance. Beautiful gifts on sale.
“Refreshing new Experience”
Beautiful and tranquil setting with lots of detail. Refreshing menu and the service was friendly and very efficient. We had a late breakfast and the food was excellent. The homemade “roosterkoek” with all the trimmings was delicious.
Besides food you can shop for lots of other sneaky surprises.
“Excellence in all respects”
We have been in South Africa for 4 weeks. 2 weeks to go. Based in Paarl, we have visited this restaurant three times and have received excellent service each time from the welcome from Nicolene and Madelein (sisters) and all the staff. The setting, the food, the ambience are perfect. In short, this is my favourite place to eat. The Karoo lamb in bobotie sauce,the burger, the squash and beetroot salad, as well as the cheesecake are superb, and we’re still working our way through the menu!
