If you have a sense for tradition and fine food, then some real treats awaits you at Footprints Restaurant & Coffeeshop in 32A Grey Avenue, Vereeniging.
This restaurant and coffeeshop in the heart of the city, (opposite Mediclinic Vereeniging) in the newly upgraded MediVillage, serves delicious meals at real value-for-money prices to those who love good food.
At the helm is Peter Hallmanns, born and trained in Germany, an award-winning chef with over 50 years of experience gained from all around the world.

Opened in April 2020, Footprints is located in a restored historical house of around 90 years old, which has been artfully furnished to look like the rooms in a cozy home with a European atmosphere – complete with beautiful restored furniture from Peter’s personal collection. Just the place to energize your body and spirit with a hearty breakfast, a classy cup of coffee or tea with a snack, or a light but filling lunch. It is also the ideal venue to celebrate a cosy wedding anniversary, a birthday or other special days with friends and family.

Footprints offers a safe and secure environment with access control and 24 hour security.
At Footprints you’ll find Continental and German Food in a true home-away-from-home setting. For many Vaal residents and business owners, Footprints has already become their number one restaurant when looking for consistently good quality food and continental treats, home-made breads and rolls, and popular innovative specials.

Chef Peter, who during his illustrious career held top positions at numerous leading hotels and institutions, has cooked in Europe, the Middle East, the UK and Ireland, Asia and South Africa before dropping anchor in Vereeniging. He served five years as a director on the executive board of the South African Chefs Association (SACA) and was honoured with life membership. He is also a member of the Academy of Chefs, a very special accolade to him.

This highly skilled chef is a genuine family man: His wife Erika and children, Günter and Anja, share his passion for good food. As a devout Christian, he gives all the glory to God for the talent and opportunities he has received over the years. “The name of the restaurant, Footprints, refers to the well-known poem about a double row of footprints in the sand, which becomes a single row when the Lord picks up and carries a person,” says Peter.
