Joe's Beerhouse
Windhoek's most famous restaurant, an open-air beerhouse crammed with quirky collectibles, serving game meats such as kudu, zebra and ostrich.
The restaurant is decorated with a thatched roof, campfires and countless old objects, with old number plates, animal bones and souvenirs in every corner. Its signature Bushman skewer platter includes ostrich, zebra, kudu and crocodile, served with German beer. Steaks and vegetarian options are also available. Almost every self-drive visitor comes on their first or last night, and evening tables usually need to be booked in advance by phone or online. It is located in the north of the city, about a 10-minute taxi ride from the centre.
