Boerderij brings flavour, culture and community together

Gobabis boasts a new culinary gem! Boerderij, a fresh face on the town’s dining scene, opened its doors in April this year under the guidance of manager Anhia du Preez. Despite being in its early stages, the restaurant is already making waves with its wide-ranging menu and unique atmosphere.“From burgers and pizzas to steaks, schnitzels, pasta, salads and wraps, we want to offer something for everyone,” says Du Preez. “And we will just keep growing.”But Boerderij is more than just a restaurant. The space includes a boutique shop featuring handbags and other keepsakes, and there are plans to create a small museum showcasing local history, including contributions from visitors all the way from South Africa.The restaurant prides itself on diversity and inclusion, aiming to make every guest feel at home. “We have people from all over, including the eastern parts of the country. We want to offer everyone something that feels familiar and comfortable,” she explains.UniqueBoerderij’s Dutch-inspired name adds a playful cultural touch. A chance encounter with a Dutch farm restaurant confirmed the uniqueness of the Gobabis venture, further motivating the team to maintain high standards and a welcoming environment.Language and culture are central to the experience. While the menu is predominantly in Afrikaans, the team is developing an English version to ensure accessibility for all visitors. “We want Afrikaans to continue to live and breathe here,” she emphasises, “but we also want everyone to enjoy the experience.”Wine enthusiasts are not left out, as Boerderij features an evolving wine collection, including labels such as Speer, Protea, Turban Williels, Dalloy, and Marokka, allowing guests to personally select bottles from the cellar. Plans are underway to expand offerings to include spirits and curated tasting experiences.With extended evening hours, walk-in options and attentive service, Boerderij promises a cosy yet dynamic dining experience. Du Preez envisions the restaurant as a cultural hub, a place where food, heritage and community come together under one roof.“Ultimately,” she says, “we want everyone who comes through our doors to feel welcome, comfortable, and a little inspired by what we’re building here.”
