On the Breede River · Malgas

THE BUSH PUB

A rustic riverside pub where the drinks are cold, the cocktails are legendary, and the deck looks straight out over the Breede. A favourite of river folk and holidaymakers since 1999.

A river & a cold one

Tucked into the reeds on the banks of the Breede River at Malgas, The Bush Pub has been the gathering spot for river folk, paddlers, fishermen and weekend wanderers for over two decades.

It's all built from driftwood, reed and good intentions — a cocktail bar under thatch, long wooden tables on the deck, and a view of the water that never gets old.

Pull up a bench, order something cold, and let the river do the rest.

Sundowner Deck

Long wooden tables right on the water. The best seat on the Breede when the sun drops.

Bush & Birds

Owls, parrots and the odd boomslang — you're properly in the bush out here, and that's the point.
