The White Boy Shebeen restaurant at The City Lodge.

The brilliant rainbow colours of the building containing the restaurant indicates the wide and eclectic range of food which is on offer at The Shebeen.

Whilst the name Shebeen has been accepted in the South African vocabulary, it is in reality derived from Gaelic and means “Little Mug”. A shebeen was a venue usually in a private home where friends gathered to share a “dram” of whiskey together on which no excise had been paid and it evolved into a warm and friendly venue, where the hosts offered food and drink to guests.
