Rykaart's Restaurant at Longridge Wine Estate

At Rykaart’s, dining is more than a meal — it’s an expression of place, season, and sustainability. Nestled on the slopes of the Helderberg at the heart of Longridge Wine Estate, the farm-to-table experience celebrates the connection between the land and the plate, where every ingredient is thoughtfully grown, harvested, and prepared just a stone’s throw from your table.
Chef Alex Rykaart and his team craft a constantly evolving menu that reflects the rhythms of the farm and the Western Cape’s rich culinary heritage. Ingredients are sourced directly from their biodynamic gardens, neighboring farms, and ethical producers — ensuring freshness, integrity, and full flavour in every dish.
Expect bold simplicity and honest refinement: hand-picked vegetables, pasture-raised meats, and wild-foraged accents — all plated with care and purpose.

Each course is thoughtfully paired with Longridge’s handcrafted wines, showcasing the estate’s biodynamic winemaking philosophy and the unique terroir of the Helderberg region. From vibrant Chenin Blancs to elegant Cabernet Sauvignons, their curated pairings elevate the sensory experience, highlighting nuanced layers and perfect balance.
