PASSIONATE
ABOUT FOOD. FAMILY. FUN
Our restaurant was established through our passion for good food set in a relaxed environment. We added our love for hosting people into the mix and in 2019 our dream became a reality.
After contemplating a name that would sound inviting as well as encompass our core values we came across the Afrikaans spelling of the word “bush”.
The idea is to create a unique experience unlike any other in the Lowveld. We strive for customer satisfaction at all times.
We also believe in having fun. Our staff are encouraged to be authentic while enjoying serving our valued customers. We are a diverse group of people and thus we encourage you to speak to any of our staff members should you not be satisfied.
We want you to leave bos. in good spirit after escaping reality in our relaxed surroundings.
bos. Restaurant & Bar is managed and owned by family orientated, passionate individuals who care for their community and believe in creating a great experience.
We trust you will enjoy your visit as much as we enjoy hosting you.
Have fun and #GaanBOS!
