Grand Pavilion on Sea Point’s promenade

Rebooting dining culture, naughty Harry’s bar and Instagram winner ceiling lights

Early coffee, or work meeting? Brunch with bubbly? Fine dining lunch or beach style snacking. End of day drinks, adding some late sunshine before moving further in towards something that evolves into an evening you never want to end – or forget – at its Harry’s bar.

With its spacious set up it will provide ample social distancing during level 1 restrictions.

GET SPECIAL INSIGHTS TO THE GRAND PAVILION

Expect the special stories behind the Grand Pavilion. Those anecdotes you would not want to miss. Those that normally only the best friends of Michael Townsend and his partners would know.

“Exquisite blue and turquoise fish scale textured tiles along our Pavilion Bar inspired by the glistening movement of the sea and transform an ordinary wall into an exciting work of abstract art…”

GET YOUR CAMERA OUT FOR INSTAGRAM WINNERS

The facade. The turquoise fish scale tiles of the bar. The absolutely iconic lights in Harry’s bar. The instagrammable ceilings in the restrooms.
