"Olive Grove review"
We were there on our last night too, and the staff were very helpful with taxis into Windhoek for us. Highly recommend Joe's Beerhouse - only 5 minutes away by cab. We had a lovely meal there on our last night (gets very busy so best to book).
We also ate at Olive Grove which was very good too." See all these reviews: 17n in Namibia
