Welcome to our second episode in Matjiesfontein! Today, we’re right next to the Lord Milner Hotel, enjoying the charming Coffee House. The Coffee House in Matjiesfontein is housed in a historic building that originally opened in 1888 as Logan’s General Store. Back then, it served as a supply station for arriving trains, providing passengers with essential goods and food. Today, it offers a cozy atmosphere where visitors can enjoy a taste of history alongside their coffee. In addition to coffee, hot chocolate, snacks, and light lunches, the Coffee House serves a selection of hearty homemade breakfasts, freshly baked cakes, and traditional Koeksisters. Guests can choose to sit inside the historic building or relax in the adjoining courtyard, which features a small fountain and pond. Although the Coffee House no longer functions as a railway supply store, it has preserved its original purpose as a place of refreshment and rest. This makes it an ideal stop not only for hotel guests but also for travelers looking for a welcoming break along their journey.
