About

Located in Craighall Park’s Shepherd Market, The Block is a neighbourhood restaurant built around good food, great wine, and the simple pleasure of sharing a table.

Created as a place to unwind, connect, and linger, The Block brings together flame-fired cooking, seasonal ingredients, and a carefully curated selection of South African wines in a relaxed and welcoming setting.

Our menu is a celebration of flavour and comfort. No pretenses, no foams. Just great everyday food done well — from our signature wood-fired sourdough pizzas to epic burgers, steaks , fish chicken and salad . There is something here for everyone.

Wine is at the heart of what we do, but never with the rules or pretence that can sometimes surround it. Through partnerships with local producers, tastings, and considered pairings, we invite everyone to discover the stories, people, and places behind each bottle.

Whether you are joining us for a casual meal, a glass of wine after work, or an evening shared with friends, The Block is a place to slow down, enjoy the moment, and celebrate the art of living well.
