This is a nice place for all occasions to go out and have some sea food. The food is well priced and the staff is doing the job. The food is normal sea food served on a normal plate and they do it great that way. Do visit this place for a nice evening away from everything. More

Besides the best fish, you'll also meet the friendliest waiters and waitresses and you'll have a breathtaking view over the bay. Don't miss out! More

The Sea Gypsey is a lively and bustling spot just outside of Mossel Bay Harbour. It basic, always busy and service is friendly and pleasant. The fish seemed very overdone (maybe pre-cooked?) but we would return for a quick meal in a pleasant spot. More

We went in for a quick beer and a sandwich before going out on a boat trip. The toasted sandwiches were great, although the chips were a bit soggy! The service is very cheerful and quick, and the prices were very reasonable More

Stopped here for lunch with the kids. Had to queue for about 20 mins but it was well worth it. This is a very rough and ready place but perfect for the sea setting that its in. My kids fed the seagulls from the open balcony right on the waters edge and it made for great photos if nothing else!... More

Great authentic place, nice and tasty food. But dont sit inside though unless it's winter. The roof absorbs heat and makes it like a sauna in the summer More

Stopped in here for the first time about four years ago whilst on business in the harbour. The food was good then and is still now and the atmosphere is still great. The prices are still reasonable as well. Have made a number of stops since and have yet to be dissappointed. More

I went as a single middle aged female and felt quite comfortable. My sister-in-law had recommended it highly. The food was delicious, the prices good and I watched dolphins as I ate More
