3. Sabie Valley Coffee

You can’t visit White River without a trip to Sabie Valley Coffee at Casterbridge Lifestyle Centre where ‘it’s all about coffee.’

Sabie Valley Coffee began as a coffee-growing business in Hazyview in 1984 by the Buckbridge family. Over time, they realised that the best way to grow the business was through ‘roasting, packing, and distributing [their coffee beans] under their own brand.’ You’ll struggle to choose from their menu of espresso-based drinks, as everything looks so good.

Plantsman Eatery is a must-visit coffee shop in White River, serving only the most delicious Terbedore Coffee and carrot cake. This country-style eatery has ‘hearty food, great vibes, and delicious baked goods’ and is kid-friendly, dog-friendly, and a great country lunchtime escape.
