My husband and I have spent the last week honeymooning in Plettenberg Bay and we drove past the Old Nick Village and noticed Roost. We read a few bad reviews, but decided to try them for breakfast this morning and those reviews were completely incorrect. It was a top-notch experience, with fast service and great food. We spent 35 minutes here from start to finish – cappuccinos arrived within minutes of ordering them, likewise with our sandwiches and orange juices. We’ll be back for breakfast tomorrow!

Went to Roost this morning with a group of 7 people. Waited to be seated and were politely cautioned the food can take up to 30 minutes. We were absolutely comfortable as this is not unique in Plett this time of the year. Three smoothies arrived which were made from sour yoghurt. The waitress identified this before we explained highlighting that we were not the only ones being served dodgy smoothies. 40 minutes later the toasted sandwiches arrived- three plates short. We asked for the tomato sauce 4 times and then fetched it ourselves. A jug of water took 3 requests. Cutlery took a 15 minute wait after the initial food arrived. 10 minutes later another sandwich arrived. After a 75 minute wait for our full order, frustrated and hungry, the last two sandwiches arrived, one of which was not the one ordered. Our negative experience was peppered with a waitress who was unfriendly, and did little to try and assure us we were being attended to. I understand that Plett is busy this time of year, but this level of service is unacceptable anytime, anywhere. We will not be back, and I have no doubt many other diners will follow suit.
The cappuccino was delicious. We ordered a quiche, which was served cold. We asked to heat the dish and waited 15min. It was still cold in the centre and when we asked to warm it completely, they had no microwave. Average experience overall.
