This is STEAK by Reel and Rustic. One roll. Done right.

STEAK by Reel and Rustic. The World’s Smallest Grill Room

A steak roll steeped in spice, smoke, and soul.

One roll. A hundred stories. STEAK by Reel and Rustic.

STEAK by Reel and Rustic

Once upon a flame in the late 1990s, a quirky little grill room called Reel and Rustic quietly made its mark in George. With just the right mix of charm, flavour, and storytelling, it became a local legend — remembered not for how many dishes were served, but how well they were done.

Now, nearly 25 years later, the spirit of Reel and Rustic is back — leaner, meaner, and served on a garlic buttered bun.

Welcome to STEAK by Reel and Rustic, The World’s Smallest Grill Room. From the heart of Mossel Bay, we serve one thing only: a New Orleans-inspired steak sandwich that speaks for itself. Aged beef, flame-kissed to perfection. Caramelised onions. Rocket. Jalapeño mayo. All stacked on a toasted bun and grilled with precision. That’s it — no frills, no fuss, just flavour and fire.

One Table – Endless Opportunities

Sure, we may only have one table at The World’s Smallest Grillroom—but that’s where the limits end and the possibilities begin.

Think of it as your launchpad to steak roll greatness.
Grab one (or a few), then head out and make it your own:

  • Find a sunny spot in our garden and settle in for a bite with a view.

  • Take a stroll down to the beach—nothing pairs with sea spray and sand like juicy steak and jalapeño mayo.

  • Pack a couple in your backpack and fuel your hike along the St. Blaize Trail as the waves crash below.

  • Enjoy it on a bench, in your car, on a rock, or under a tree—anywhere deliciousness is allowed.

Where you eat it is up to you.
How good it tastes? That’s all us.

Our Menu

Our “little” menu has grown over the past few weeks. From one great sandwich to now, including a 300g Plank Steak and a 700g Beef Rib on the Bone.

We look forward to spoiling you, and remember, everything is cooked to order, and we make every effort to ensure you get EXACTLY what you want!

If it matters to you, it matters to us!

The New Orleans-Style Steak Sandwich

120g of thinly sliced, aged beef — reverse-seared to lock in flavour and melt-in-your-mouth tenderness. Nestled in a toasted, brioche-style roll with golden caramelised onions, fresh peppery rocket, and a signature drizzle of jalapeño mayo for just the right kick.
Make it unforgettable with our garlic buttered bun option.

One roll. One story. One table.
Welcome to The World’s Smallest Grill Room.

Our Cuts and Our Aging Process

We source only aged, hand-cut beef from trusted local suppliers who share our passion for flavour. Each cut is hand-selected for tenderness and marbling — typically a balanced mix of sirloin, rump, or a touch of ribeye, depending on what’s best that week. We proudly display the day’s featured cut and its ageing time on the board each morning — no guessing, no mystery meat, just beautifully aged, top-quality beef. Every portion is reverse-seared, rested, and thinly sliced for a steak sandwich that’s bold, juicy, and never overworked. No shortcuts. No compromises. Just real steak, done right.

Where To Find Us
the only thing BLAND about us, is our address!

You’ll find us proudly grilling at The Blue Shed Coffee Roastery, located at 33 Bland Street, Mossel Bay—just look for the big blue shed, the aroma of freshly roasted coffee, and the unmistakable scent of steak on the grill.

The Blue Shed is one of Mossel Bay’s favourite local gems—known for its artisan coffee, laid-back charm, and creative community vibe. It’s the perfect setting for The World’s Smallest Grill Room—relaxed, welcoming, and easy to find whether you’re a local or just passing through. Come for the coffee, stay for the steak.

Yes! We cater for private functions.

Got a birthday, celebration, team lunch or family gathering coming up? Let STEAK by Reel and Rustic bring the flavour. We cater private functions for 20 to 100 hungry humans, either right here at our home base — The Blue Shed Coffee Roastery — or at a venue of your choosing.

Whether it’s a sunset get-together, a backyard bash, or something a little more dressed up, we’ll bring the grill, the goods, and the good vibes. The menu is built around our signature steak sandwich but can be customised by arrangement to suit your event — because not every guest loves jalapeño mayo (but they should).
