their strength is also their (our) weakness: the only reason we don't pull over every time we pass, is their popularity (i.e. it's slways packed with travellers stopping for a quick roadside snack).
they've recently extended the former padstal building and to add a large jungle jim play area withpiesand coffee to go for those who don't want to enter the inner area where bottles of preserves, homemade loaves or sumptuous quiches lure you into loading up your basket and offloading your wallet! such wily marketers, those grabouw boere folk!
we were feeling peckish en route to onrus, so stopped forpies(and, of course, other bottled nam-nams). as if we hadn't had breakfast, or weren't planning on having lunch, these were scoffed before the payment had been made! (i know gluttony is a sin, but the flesh is so weak!)
