  • Nightlife Spot: Rolling Stones

    Great place for young people to meet and have a few games of pool or just a drink.
    This pool hall has about 200 tables and a balcony when you need a breather.
    This pool hall is by no means a seedy joint one often associates with pool halls

  • Nightlife Spot: Barleycorn Music Club

    Every Monday evening from about 8.30pm you can head down the River Club and listen to live music. The barleycorn music club has been running for 20+ years as a non-profit organisation with the sole aim of appreciation of live music. The diversity is from solo guitar, accapella, rock, jazz to reggae & classical.

    There is a small door charge at the moment R20 and silence is asked for when the musicians are playing

    I have not been here but have been told it is the place to go so will add the tip on merit.

    The range of cigars is very good as one would expect.

    The decor is lavish with the traditional furnishings of a cigar bar. It also provides live jazz..
