This Father’s Day, treat the man of the hour to a relaxed afternoon of great food, good drinks, and easy company in the heart of Sandton. The Father’s Day Spit Braai brings a beloved South African tradition to the elegant terrace at Faces Lounge, offering dads and their families a sophisticated yet laid-back way to celebrate together.
Set on the stylish Faces Lounge Terrace in Sandown, this is the perfect midday escape for anyone who would rather spend the occasion around a generous spread of slow-roasted meat than tucked away at a formal sit-down lunch. With a welcome drink in hand and the winter sun overhead, it is a celebration tailor-made for the dads of Gauteng.
What the Father’s Day Spit Braai Includes
The experience has been designed to keep things simple, generous, and genuinely enjoyable from start to finish:
A Welcome Drink: Every dad is greeted with a welcome drink to kick off the afternoon in style.
Traditional Spit Braai: The centrepiece of the day is a classic spit braai, with succulent, slow-roasted meat served fresh from the fire.
Fresh Salads: A selection of fresh salads rounds out the meal, balancing the hearty braai with lighter, vibrant flavours.
Whisky & Beer Promotions: Order a whisky cocktail or make the most of the whisky and beer promotions running throughout the day.
A Sandton Setting Made for Dads
There is something special about marking Father’s Day in a space that feels both upmarket and unpretentious. The terrace at Faces offers exactly that: a sophisticated Sandton backdrop where families can settle in, relax, and let the afternoon unfold at its own pace. Whether you are toasting your own father, bringing the kids along to celebrate their dad, or gathering a group of friends, the warm and social atmosphere makes everyone feel welcome.
Winter afternoons in Johannesburg are made for exactly this kind of gathering, with crisp air, clear skies, and the comforting aromas of a braai drifting across the terrace. It is an easy, fuss-free way to give the father figure in your life a day to remember, without anyone having to lift a finger in the kitchen.
Make a Day of It in Sandton
One of the joys of celebrating at Faces Lounge is its central Sandton location, which makes it easy to turn the occasion into a full day out. Sandton is one of Johannesburg’s most vibrant districts, with leafy streets, stylish surroundings, and plenty to see and do once the last of the braai has been enjoyed. Families travelling from across Gauteng will find it a convenient and accessible spot, with the terrace offering a comfortable, welcoming base for the afternoon.
Because the spit braai runs through the middle of the day, there is no rush and no pressure. Dads can sink into a relaxed rhythm: a welcome drink to begin, plates piled high with slow-roasted meat and fresh salads, and a steady supply of whisky and beer specials to keep the good times rolling. It is the kind of unhurried, generous hospitality that turns a simple meal into a genuine celebration, and it gives everyone the chance to slow down and properly enjoy each other’s company.
Why You Should Book the Father’s Day Spit Braai

With a welcome drink, a generous braai, fresh salads, and drink specials all included, it is a celebration that takes care of every detail.
