| The Stellenbosch Culinary Challenge |
- a student's quest to visit every restaurant in Stellenbosch,
before the completion of her studies -
Balboa Balcony Bar is situated in Andringa Street, where Sgt Pepper used to be. It is a small venue with a great vibe. It serves as a Tapas Bar and restaurant aside from an interesting list of cocktails and craft beers they serve pizza's, nacho's as well as a dessert selection.
I've been there twice and both times it was packed, so booking is definitely recommended. In summer time the deck is open, giving it a more spacious feel and a view on the beautiful oaks and street activities.
We enjoyed a selection of cocktails, with the Strawberry Daquirri, albeit it's size, being voted as the favourite. The cocktails are reasonably priced, in the R40 region.

Two friends decided to share the chicken nacho's - it ended up being such a large portion that the whole table snacked on it, and still we sent some back to the kitchen. The pizza's also seem to be very popular.
Balboa has a great atmosphere and especially their cocktails will ensure my return. The service was a bit slow, but to their defense they were operating at full capacity that night.* Their extended trading hours (from 12:00 - 01:30 on Monday- Saturday) is an added bonus.
* Take note that no under 23's are allowed.
