Parisian street-side dining ...

ROAR Bistro & Bar is staking its claim as Sandton’s unique dining spot; with its Parisian street-side setup and tapas-style menu, offering a delectable melting pot of global flavours. There is even a deli for passers-by needing to grab something quick and delicious on the go, with a plethora of freshly baked pastries, patisseries, and handcrafted sandwiches.

Owned by the Legacy Group, inspired by the logos majestic lion, the restaurant was thus dubbed ROAR and is here to claim the Sandton territory and make its mark on the local food scene.

The design of the restaurant interior was dreamed into reality, showcasing a colour pallet of teal, tomato red and brass, inspired by a beautiful harlequin-type fabric as well as the eye-catching graffitied art piece of a male lion.

The menu is split into small plates for those wanting to share in a taste adventure of different flavours and textures, or big plates for those who know what they want. Small plates tie into the international trend of being able to taste a little of everything and fits into the Joburg culture of dining to socialize.

Come and join us for a glass of bubbles or a whisky cocktail crafted by our very own mixologist. Or arrive early for pre-dinner drinks and recline in our comfortable lounge while you select a delicious bottle of wine off our bespoke wine list. Whatever your need, ROAR offers a fully stocked bar of beers, wines and hand-crafted cocktails for you to relax, unwind and enjoy.
