Upside-Down Blues Bar

Stone House is best loved for the show-stopping (or rather show-starting) Upside-Down Blues Bar.

Various musical instruments are fixed to the ceiling and ready to be played by those with a little bit of an acrobatic streak in them. A Piano, still perfectly in tune, is the focal point behind the bar and it hangs at a mesmerizing angle that will challenge your perception. A one-hundred-year-old Double Bass still looks good from its perch above a huge, cosy sofa. Legend has it that it belonged to the proprietor’s grandfather who was the frontman for ‘Japie Laubscher en sy Uysterplaat Kerels’. Then there’s a guitar signed by a music-maker from years gone by... aaah if only these Stone House walls could talk!
