Spar - Abingdon

“Live music - mostly rock and folk, with a restaurant and bar, popular with locals.”

“A bit of a drive out (15-30 min) but in my opinion the best fish on the coast. As they say " it's not just our fish that's fresher, but only batter that's better" and it's true. They also have the best prawns, calamari, mussels, and nice platters. It's called 'On the River' because it is set next the great Umzimkulu river shortly before it joins the sea. I heard it was once a whaling station, there is history photos and info on the walls . The setting is peaceful and tranquil and one with nature. Last time I was there we watched a fish eagle attach a hawk from our table. If someone in the group doesn't like fish there are a couple of other eateries in the complex and they don't mind sharing tables. Only thing is you can't complain about the service, because there is none - it is self service and you have to place your orders and get your own drinks. They do bring the food to the table though, and then you realize it was worth it.”
