Oep vir Koep - Paternoster, Cape West Coast

Oep vir Koep is a renowned restaurant and deli located in the charming fishing village of Paternoster on the Cape West Coast of South Africa. It was originally opened by celebrated chef Kobus van der Merwe, who has since become known for his focus on foraged, locally-sourced, and sustainable ingredients. Oep vir Koep's menu is a true reflection of the West Coast’s unique coastal environment, with a focus on simple, seasonal dishes that highlight the flavors of the surrounding area.

Whatever you look for in Paternoster, Oep vir Koop is the catch phrase in most of the directions. Also known as Die Winkel op Paternoster, the building once housed a fish factory that extracted oil from tornyn, a kind of porpoise, for its use in medicines, this shop is now a landmark in the small picturesque village of paternoster. Translated Oep vir Koop means open for shopping and this general dealer-come-eatery is definitely that!

The restaurant became famous for its innovative use of indigenous ingredients, including wild herbs, seaweeds, and other foraged elements from the West Coast’s fynbos and coastal ecosystems. Although Kobus van der Merwe has since moved on to focus on his other restaurant, Wolfgat, which gained international acclaim, Oep vir Koep still maintains its rustic charm and focus on high-quality, locally-inspired food. The restaurant often serves as an entry point for those looking to explore the culinary heritage of the West Coast region, offering a menu that changes with the seasons.

Apart from its restaurant, Oep vir Koep also functions as a deli where visitors can purchase a variety of locally-made products, including preserves, artisanal breads, and other handmade delicacies. The relaxed atmosphere, combined with its rustic setting and commitment to sustainable, local ingredients, makes Oep vir Koep a must-visit destination for food lovers exploring Paternoster and the broader Cape West Coast.
