Restaurants

Victoria Falls, Matabeleland North

Room for fine dining, casual family, themed and destination restaurants — including riverfront and hilltop concepts overlooking the falls.

Restaurants
Overview

Victoria Falls City has chain restaurants and eating houses serving local delicacies and western meals. While venues such as The Lookout Café offer views of the falls, there is significant room for more investment across fine dining, casual and themed formats.

Project Description

There is room for the establishment of fine dining restaurants with a focus on local cuisine and ingredients, or a restaurant that serves international cuisine with a twist. In addition, casual dining restaurants that are family friendly serving local food or a variety of international cuisines. Themed restaurants that reflect the local culture and history — for example, traditional Zimbabwean cuisine or safari-themed venues. There is demand for restaurants that offer stunning views — on the banks of the Zambezi River or on a hilltop overlooking the falls. Investment can also target restaurants that cater to weddings, honeymoons and conferences.
