Best meat in town. Nowhere cooks lamb and steak like Captains. Small and friendly staff. Not a funky vibe or ultra modern, just nice, simple and calm. Hard to describe, but not Botawana or Jervios.
Captain's Restaurant

One of the best walks in town. Easy access from town. Either head for the saddle or all the way to the top. Check the weather - its a mountain and can change fast. A great half day or more mission if you are relatively fit.

Getting Around

Takeme is a local version of Uber. You need to download the App on the App store and then you can use. It is cheaper than Taxi's, however they have a small fleet of drivers so less reliable. Always worth booking if you know when and where you are travelling too.
