Working in the suburbs of Tokai is only about a 30 minute drive from the mother city CBD. Tokai possesses the tranquillity and open spaces that make an afternoon outing from any hustle and bustle feel like a breath of fresh air.

Here are some sneak previews of a tad of after work spoils!

A Quaint Surprise…The Brasserie in Tokai

The bar area is a delight for after work drinks with a simple antique design of bar, lamps shades and armchairs.

After a few drinks the appetite can be satisfied by delicious food at exceptional value. Chef Stéfan Marais is at the helm with a strong stance that their menu is the heart and soul of The Brasserie.

Wednesday is best at Earth Fair Market

This fun and energetic market starts 3pmish and is host to a range of locally produced and artisan food products. You will be thrilled by the quality cuisine, wine, coffee, dessert, fresh produce, and alternative healthy options. Wednesday is a buzz!

 Serenity in Tokai Forest

Here is a spot to unwind. Jog, cycle, walk the dogs or simply stroll through the tall grandeur of trees. This is simply a forest of beauty and peacefulness. You will hear your heartbeat!

For Golf Lovers – Steenberg Golf Club

In a most enchanting setting, the Steenberg Golf Club, is surrounded by mountain, wine estate, well-renowned restaurants and hotel. It is a visually spectacular and challenging 18-hole golfing experience. No space for disappointment when you spend time at the Steenberg Golf Club.

Unassuming…The Italian Kitchen on Tokai Road

Here you will get great pizza half price Monday – Thursday. Friendly staff and fabulous cuisine and an all-round warm fuzzy Italian ambience. It neighbours one of the few existing DVD stores, and this adds to the character of the location of The Italian Kitchen.
