Glen Muir Holiday Resort

Grand Chesa
Chesa nyama with its own butchery attached, so the meat is bought at the counter and braaied on the premises. Covered outdoor seating behind railings on the street side, and a weekly special board at the gate.

Kremline Securities
Security company covering four lines: guarding and security personnel, surveillance systems, risk assessment and consulting, and event security. The event side means it takes one-off jobs as well as standing contracts, which not every operator in the metro will do.
Latimer's Cruise & Café
Fully licensed cafe at Latimers Landing on the Buffalo River harbour, open daily from 8am. Breakfast and fish and chips are the mainstays, and the setting on the working harbour is the reason to go rather than the menu alone.

Ultra Liquors — East London
Liquor warehouse trading on volume rather than range presentation - wines, spirits and beer at case prices. A free-standing store on an arterial with its own fenced parking lot and a side entrance, so it takes a bulk shop for a function far better than a bottle store in a shopping centre would.
