Pluto's Family Bar

Pluto's Family Bar

Est. Benoni, South Africa

A home bar with soul. Where wooden beams meet good company, cold beers meet warm conversations, and every Friday night feels like coming home.

Named After the Best Boy

Pluto's Family Bar started the way all great bars do — with a dog, a dream, and a room upstairs that needed a purpose.

Named after Pluto, the Australian Shepherd who runs the house (and everyone in it), Pluto's has become the gathering place for friends, family, and anyone lucky enough to get an invite.

Wooden beams, thatched roof vibes, a pool table that's seen better days (and better players), and a sound system that knows what deep house is. This isn't a commercial bar — it's better than that.

What Makes Us, Us

Not your average bar. Not even close.

🎱

Pool Table

Legendary table with a storied history. Bring your A-game — the regulars don't go easy on newcomers.

🎵

The Sound

Deep house, good vibes, and a sound system that hits different when the sun goes down and the beers are cold.

🪵

The Aesthetic

Wooden beams, warm lighting, thatched roof character. It feels like a treehouse for adults. Because it basically is.

🐕

Dog Friendly

Three resident dogs who think they're bouncers. Mika, Pluto, and Basil welcome all well-behaved humans.

🔥

Saturday Braais

Weekend braais are an institution. Bring meat, bring stories, bring your appetite. The fire is always ready.

🏠

Invite Only

Pluto's isn't open to the public — it's open to friends. And friends of friends. And that one guy Gary who's always skeptical.

Where the only dress code is showing up, the only reservation is "I'll be there," and the only last call is when someone falls asleep on the couch.

The Residents
