The heart of Melfort

Melfort used to be my family's farm in the Mazowe Valley, Zimbabwe. 

They grew many fruits, vegetables and kept livestock. The farm was family-run, very busy and always had a lot of mouths to feed.

My grandfather hired staff to cook meals for the family.

Every day, the family would gather around the dining room table and enjoy the best of what the farm had to offer.

The only meals cooked were those that had seasonal crops and meat from the farm. 

Nothing else was used. The food eaten was always good for their health, with nothing highly processed entering their kitchens - just real, good, delicious, food. 

 

This is what Melfort is all about– a place that celebrates what the season has to offer, the best organic crops and high-quality grass-fed meats from our foot step. 

All from local suppliers – never compromising on quality. We work closely with local farms who share our commitment to producing food that's not only delicious, but good for you and the environment.

All meals served will be delicious family classics done in a modern way with clever flavour combinations and perfectly executed.

We’re proud to feature wines from Marianne Wine Estate, bringing you exceptional local wine to complement every meal.

Our food is fresh, seasonal, and served in a relaxed, sharing style—perfect for everyone, from families with little ones to foodies of all ages.

Décor will always be rustic and farm focused– staying true to our roots and where we are now.
