Restaurants and pubs in Marloth Park
Where to eat inside Marloth Park, and two places on the Komatipoort side if you feel like a drive. Each place shows the date we last checked it.
Last checked 26 October 2026
Marloth Park has six restaurants and pubs that we've checked. The Tin Shack and bos. are at the two shopping centres on Olifant Drive. Jabula, Giraffe Pub and Grill, Amazing Kruger View and the restaurant at Kruger Maroela Lodge are spread around the park. Book bos. for weekends and rugby days, and book Jabula for dinner.
Before you go out
Kitchens here close well before the bars do, so check the kitchen time in the list below if you plan to eat late. Jabula and the Tin Shack both publish theirs.
Book ahead on Friday and Saturday nights and when there's big sport on TV. bos. asks people to book, and guests say Jabula fills up.
Amazing Kruger View is the one with the river. It sits in Henk van Rooyen Park and looks across the Crocodile River into Kruger. Reviews from 2025 and 2026 are mixed about the food and service, but they agree about the view, so it suits a sundowner more than a special dinner.
Takeaways and breakfast
The Tin Shack has a takeaway hatch with call-and-collect, and the same hatch sells bread, milk, ice and firewood if the shops have closed. Jabula, the Tin Shack, Kruger Maroela Lodge and the Riverside Terrace at Ngwenya Lodge all serve breakfast.
Eating near Komatipoort
If you're heading out through Komatipoort anyway, the Riverside Terrace at Ngwenya Lodge sits on the Crocodile River and does a buffet lunch on Sundays. Lambu Eatery is the restaurant at Kambaku Golf Club in town. For a bigger shop on the same trip, see shops near Marloth Park.
