Pretville

If you are looking to sink your teeth into a good old-fashioned cheeseburger, washed down with a bubblegum milkshake, and you're looking to do it in a 1950s-styled diner, the best suggestion I can make is for you to drive at 30 km/h down a dirt road in Hartbeesport in the Northwest and pay a visit to Pretville. A film town, which is the only one of its kind in South Africa, that was used for the shooting of a 2012 Afrikaans musical of the same name. Pretville is a nostalgic lover's delight with an arcade, a working bioscope, vintage cars lining the streets, and this classic 1950s-styled diner with an atmosphere of wholesome Americana, combining retro aesthetics with vibrant energy. The iconic checkerboard floors and shiny chrome accents transport patrons to a bygone era. The diner's cozy booths and counter seating create a communal and friendly ambiance, with its simple but effective food menu of burgers, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, and popcorn.
The burger was uncomplicated but tasty. A fresh roll with a juicy patty, onions, lettuce, tomato, and a slice of cheese. All you need to enjoy this American classic. Pretville is fun, different, and worth a stop, let me know if you’ve been or are keen to check it out when you’re next in town.
