Ocean Basket Locations in South Africa: Finding Your Nearest Branch

Last verified: 26 September 2026. Information on this page is checked against the official Ocean Basket website and cross-referenced with branch details. Store details can vary by location.

Ocean Basket has over 130 restaurants across South Africa, and a large share of the searches that reach this site are branch searches, from people looking for Kimberley, Umhlanga, Muizenberg, Pinelands, Paarl, Bloemfontein, Middelburg, Malvern, Glengarry, Castle Gate or simply “Ocean Basket near me”. Almost all of those searches come down to two questions: where is my nearest branch, and will the prices be the same as everywhere else?

This page answers both in one place. Further down you will find every branch on Ocean Basket’s official locator, grouped by province, with a link to each branch’s own page for hours and phone numbers.

How to find your nearest Ocean Basket

The official Ocean Basket store locator on the chain’s own website is the only source we would trust for addresses, phone numbers and trading hours. Franchise networks open, relocate and close restaurants throughout the year, and third-party directories are frequently months behind.

Two practical shortcuts. Searching Ocean Basket in Google Maps will show you branches ranked by distance along with their current opening hours, which is usually faster than a locator form. And if you open a delivery app and enter your address, the branches that appear are ones actively trading and delivering to you right now, which is a quick way to confirm a restaurant is genuinely open before you drive there.

One quirk of the network is worth knowing: most Ocean Basket restaurants sit inside shopping centres, so their trading hours generally follow the centre’s hours rather than their own. That is why a branch that closes at 21:00 on a Saturday may close at 15:00 on a Sunday.

Every Ocean Basket branch in South Africa, by province

Ocean Basket’s official store locator listed 127 South African restaurants when we checked it in September 2026. They are all below, grouped by province, with the shopping centre or street each one trades from. The “Hours & phone” link opens that branch’s own page on the official locator, which is the place to check trading hours and the phone number before you go.

A few branches were marked “temporarily closed” on the locator when we checked, and we have labelled those. Franchises open and move during the year, so if a branch near you is missing, the official locator will have the newest list.

Where the branches are concentrated

The network is heaviest in Gauteng, covering Johannesburg, Pretoria, Centurion and the East Rand, followed by the Western Cape across Cape Town, the southern suburbs, the False Bay side and the Winelands towns. KwaZulu-Natal is well covered through Durban and the North Coast, and there is steady coverage in the Eastern Cape through East London, Port Alfred and Mthatha.

Beyond the big three provinces the network thins out but is still present in Bloemfontein in the Free State, Kimberley in the Northern Cape, and across Mpumalanga and Limpopo. If you are in a smaller town, the locator is worth checking rather than assuming. Ocean Basket has historically opened in mid-size centres that other sit-down chains skipped.

Do Ocean Basket prices change from branch to branch?

Yes, and noticeably more than at most of the chains we track. Ocean Basket varies more by location than KFC, McDonald’s or Burger King do, for four reasons.

It is a franchise network. Individual owners set their own prices within the band head office allows, so two branches 20km apart can differ by several rand on the same platter.

Fresh fish supply differs inland versus coastal. Coastal branches in Cape Town, Durban and Gqeberha sit closer to supply, while inland branches in Gauteng, Bloemfontein and Kimberley carry freight into the cost of the fresh lines. This shows up most on the grilled fish, prawn and oyster prices rather than on the fried and frozen items.

Rent follows the centre. Branches in premium malls, waterfront and tourist locations run above the national menu. Suburban and smaller-town branches are usually the cheapest.

Licensed branches price differently. Restaurants that serve alcohol often carry a slightly different food menu alongside the drinks list.

Treat the figures on our Ocean Basket menu prices page as the national reference point, then expect movement of a few rand either way at your local branch. If you order through a delivery app, add a platform mark-up on top of that, because app menus are consistently above the walk-in price.

What else varies from branch to branch

Sushi. Not every Ocean Basket has a sushi counter. The sushi range is one of the most common reasons people call ahead, and it is the single biggest menu difference between branches. If sushi is the reason you are going, confirm first. We compare the pricing against the obvious alternative in our Simply Asia versus Ocean Basket sushi breakdown.

Halaal certification. Some branches are certified and others are not. Certification is granted per restaurant rather than nationally, so it cannot be assumed from the brand. The sauces, sides and any non-seafood lines are usually where the differences sit.

Alcohol. Several branches are licensed and several are not, which is worth checking if you are booking for a group.

Specials and deal days. Ocean Basket runs national campaigns, but weekday deals and the day they fall on are not uniform across the country. Searches for Monday and Tuesday specials are common precisely because they differ regionally. Our Ocean Basket specials page tracks what is running nationally.

Seasonal and premium lines. Oysters, lobster and langoustines depend on both season and branch. These are the lines most likely to be unavailable or priced differently to the menu board.

Branch questions we get asked most

Are Ocean Basket prices the same in Cape Town and Johannesburg?

Not exactly. The fried and frozen items track closely nationally, but fresh grilled fish, prawns and oysters tend to run cheaper at coastal branches and higher inland. The gap is usually a few rand rather than a different price bracket.

Does every Ocean Basket serve sushi?

No. Sushi is available at many but not all branches, and it is the most common branch-to-branch menu difference. Phone ahead if it is the reason for your visit.

Which Ocean Basket branches are halaal?

Certification is per branch, not national, so there is no single list that stays accurate. Ask the specific restaurant directly, and ask about the sides and sauces as well as the seafood.

Are Ocean Basket specials the same at every branch?

National campaigns run everywhere, but weekday deals and the days they fall on vary by branch and region. Always confirm with your local restaurant before travelling for a specific deal.

Is it cheaper to eat in or order delivery?

Eating in is cheaper. Delivery app menus carry a mark-up over the walk-in price on top of delivery and service fees, so the same platter costs meaningfully more on an app than at the table.

How many Ocean Basket branches are there in South Africa?

127 on the official locator in September 2026, making it comfortably the largest sit-down seafood chain in the country.

For the full national price list see our Ocean Basket menu prices page, which includes platter, prawn, calamari, sushi and kids’ menu tables, and Ocean Basket specials for current deals.
