Pavillion Fairground. - Gaborone

This restaurant specializes in traditional Tswana cuisine and is one of the finest in town. If you're looking to try their dishes, I suggest going on a Friday. They also offer free Wi-Fi and have impressive conference facilities. The customer service is outstanding; the manager makes sure that help is readily available whenever there is an issue in the conference space.

The food is excellent, the Wi-Fi is dependable, and there's ample parking and seating. However, the monkeys can be rather disruptive and bothersome.

I had a wonderful and relaxing experience. The spacious layout of the area follows COVID protocols, making it an ideal place for lunch.

I sincerely hope the management considers ways to breathe new life into the restaurant, perhaps by hiring younger hostesses to foster a more lively atmosphere. During my visit, I experienced a few hiccups: my friend's gin was finished after just one drink, prompting her to choose a different brand. While they eventually replenished the lime, the second cocktail I ordered came without the umbrella and didn’t match the first one. I had to request it separately. On a brighter note, I ordered the ribs, which were absolutely delicious, and the portion size was definitely worth the cost.

The food was outstanding, but the service from the waitress left something to be desired. She brought the tea without any sugar, and the cups weren't clean.
