Pistols Saloon

KwaZulu-Natal


Don't be fooled: the kitschy Wild West theme at this bar and restaurant is no joke. The most famous regular at this bar is a donkey that roams around the joint getting cosy with patrons. Gimmicks aside, it's a fun place to grab a drink with the locals (the food is just OK).

The bar also bills itself as a Wild West museum. There are a few paintings and pieces of nostalgia, but don't go looking for a full-on educational experience.
