Ou Meul Bakery And Cafe - Somersetwes

When Dave and I moved to Gordons Bay in 2001 our holiday destination was always Sedgefield. This was close enough for us to go away for a long weekend. And there were two resorts we could stay at which offered great activities for the boys. Mark first told us about Ou Meul (Old Mill) when he and James went to Port Elizabeth on a bus journey. They stopped there for pies and waxed lyrical about them. From a small farmstall selling puff pastry pies, to a growing enterprise, Ou Meul in Riviersonderend is the place we always stop for breakfast when we are on a road trip.

Looooove this place!!! Great breakfast/lunch spot and good coffee close to the mall entrance. Food and drinks are prepared with love and attention. Never been disappointed and will keep coming back!

Pleasantly surprised after being disappointed at the other branches. Ashley, the waiter, is a rockstar. The food was devine and the coffee even better.

Coffee...Cake...Cape Town....some of my few favourite things! What can be better than enjoying a cup of coffee that is happiness tasted and time well spent!<br/ <br/ Oumeul is a great little artisan bakery inside the Somerset mall selling delicious baked goods and pastries that taste a little bit like heaven. It is a warming place to relax and enjoy a delightful cup of coffee. <br/ <br/ The staff is super efficient and friendly. We opted for a slice of cheesecake to share and the waiter took the initiative to cut the cheesecake in half and put on separate plates for us to enjoy. <br/ <br/ Definitely a relaxing place where good coffee is a pleasure!<br/

After a day of wine tasting we needed some sweet and a good coffee to pick us back up. We found that a few Oumeul Bakeries had started popping up around the Mother City and I instantly liked the whole steampunk theme that seems to be the in thing right about now. <br/ <br/ So I'm rating a cup of coffee and half a slice of cheesecake so don't judge me. The cheesecake was the last slice and our waiter was kind enough to slice it and present it on separate plates. Coffees were decent enough to be fresh and robust and not the weak as a cup of Ricoffy. <br/ <br/ I do like the staff here. People with a personality above a dial tone.
