Bodega may mean a place selling food and wine, forget the wine and enjoy the unusual food in a very pleasant setting and with attentive service. The sitting area indoors has been extended from the Shepard's Tree days, so no worries about cold days. Just remember the entrance is on a busy road, so approach from Main Street and leave by turning left, people do not expect cars to cross the traffic at that point.

This laid-back lunch venue is a welcome addition to the competitive Knysna food scene. We visited in the first week of their opening and were pleasantly surprised by the variety of interesting menu items, including several vegetarian options, from which one could choose. I opted for the chicken quesadilla, which was flavoursome and grilled to perfection, and the freshly squeezed lemonade was a refreshing complement to the meal. The owner is delightful, and it is clear that she has a great passion for the industry. We will definitely return!

What a chilled out, beautiful setting. I love what these guys have done with the space. The Service is friendly and genuine, Kasi is all about making you feel like you part of the family. The Food, finally Knysna has a cafe that is not pretencious, and that is what Tania is all about yummy tasty food. If this is what they have done on their first week I look forward to 6 months time
