Origin of Fire — Van die Aarde

Welcome to VELDT, where the primal art of fire cooking meets the soul of South African heritage. Nestled in the heart of Hout Bay, VELDT is a braai eatery and smokehouse celebrating the rich flavours of the land. Our menu features wood-fired and smoked dishes crafted from organic, grass-fed meats, including premium cuts like Karoo lamb, paired with local beers, boutique wines, and artisanal beverages.

With a sleek, modern design embracing rustic charm, VELDT offers more than just a dining experience—it’s a celebration of culture and community. Enjoy relaxed meals, indulge in tasting experiences.

At VELDT, we honour the tradition of the braai, igniting flavours, conversations, and connections—an experience rooted in the earth and fuelled by fire.

Come for the food, stay for the experience.
