An historic favourite on the east side of Joburg that dates back to the 1930s, The Troyeville Hotel is known for serving up some of the tastiest Portuguese food in Joburg. We recommend opting for the classic Mozambican king or queen prawns with chips and salad or a classic Portuguese salted cod (bacalhau).
In 2021 this somewhat grungy but always atmospheric destination got new owners who embarked on a major upgrade. With a fresh and bold new look, The Troyeville’s ground floor now is home to a Portuguese bakery and coffee shop that opens directly onto the street. This is the place for authentic pasteis de nata. The sports bar, long a popular pre-match drinking hole for rugby fans visiting the nearby stadium, has also been revamped as has the hotel's signature restaurant.
The biggest new attraction is the formerly unused rooftop which has been transformed into a huge beer garden called the Sunset 1403 Rooftop Bar. On weekends the rooftop bar hosts live music and sunset DJ sets. On Friday and Saturday, resident DJ Mzwa Ngubeni is on deck regularly hosting young up- can-coming DJs. Soak up the tunes of Saxophonist Sheldon Sham on Sunday afternoons. Access to the Rooftop Bar is free from Friday to Sunday. Available for private hire from Monday to Thursday.
