The Coachman
The Coachman Restaurant
A long-established steakhouse on the Summerstrand seafront, known for its T-bone steak, fillet, and lamb chops, with views over the bay.
The Coachman is at Brookes on the Bay on the Summerstrand seafront. It is a long-established steakhouse that has been run for decades, and regulars say it is 'as good as it was 36 years ago'. Its signature dishes are the T-bone steak, the fillet, and a special steak prepared by owner George. Lamb chops and various steak sauces are also recommended. The windows look out over Nelson Mandela Bay, and the waitstaff wear formal uniforms, giving the place a traditional atmosphere. It is often full, so book ahead. Some reviewers feel quality has varied in recent years, and that prices are high. Expect to pay about R300-450 per person.
