My wife and I had the best experience at The Hogfather today. The staff was amazing and so friendly, and the food absolutely blew our minds. Do yourself a favour and order the Teriyaki pork meatballs on Asian noodles, you will not be disappointed.
Thanks alot for a great experience.

Fantastic restaurant/bar in Hoedspruit! Service was super friendly and the food just delicious. During our time in Hoedspruit we visited the Hogfather 3 times and had fantastic food every single time. We loved the chef’s recommendations which he states to us by coming to our table. Would highly recommend everything about the Hogfather :)

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Hogfather Pub and Eatery and I must admit that it was a delightful experience. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed with the ambiance of the place. The decor was rustic yet modern, which created a warm and inviting atmosphere. The pub had a great vibe to it, which made me feel right at home.
However, what I loved the most about this eatery was the quality of the food. Everything was cooked to perfection, and the flavors were outstanding. I highly recommend trying their pork shoulder.
The service was also exceptional; the staff were friendly and attentive and made sure that my dining experience was enjoyable. Throughout my meal, they were always around to offer drinks, make recommendations and answer any questions that I had.
Overall, I highly recommend dining at Hogfather Pub and Eatery to anyone looking for a great meal in a warm and inviting atmosphere. The quality of the food and the ambiance of the eatery make it a must-visit for anyone in the area.

This was such a happy find in Hoedspruit- I would highly recommend! Chris, owner and chef, came over to our table to give some recommendations and chat about the menu- which had just the right amount of options on. The staff were friendly, attentive and professional. There is a wide range of local drinks on offer from beers, gins and minerals. The atmosphere was light and warm with the perfectly draped lights and backdrop of the Drakensberg mountains.
This spot would be suited for casual dining or celebratory dinners.
Not many spots like this in Hoedspruit, in my opinion.

The food (lasagna) was dry and to much layers. The beef burger was hard and dry. There is not much other choices when you don't want pork. I don't want to recommend this place

It was a very pleasant afternoon experience. The restaurant was quiet, as is the norm for Hoedspruit Saturdays. The food was enjoyable. The service was excellent. The owner was very doting and welcoming. Definitely worth the drive.

Beautiful in the evenings with all the lights. Waiter was friendly and drinks and food didn't take long. Only a few vegetarian options sadly,the salad was amazing!
