The Melting Pot lives on
Pool room lunches in Elgin surrounded by trees and agapanthus
Hidden in a forest-like setting, is the modest restaurant The Melting Pot, close to the Elgin Railway Market in the Elgin Valley. It's in this fairytale setting, overlooking a large garden with agapanthus and hydrangea macrophylla, (you might even spot a peacock), that you get to flavour-packed foods from around the world.
The Melting Pot is on an estate in Elgin and is covered with hanging trees and is set by a pool and garden. Image: The Melting Pot
The Melting Pot, which used to operate in Wale Street, Cape Town (by Honest Chocolate), moved to Elgin in 2020, which is the better spot for a romantic lunch, a family day out (it's pet friendly too).
The restaurant started as a popup at Oak Valley Estate in 2020. It is now open every Wednesday to Sunday.
