I love that you place your order, pay (pricey but it’s quality so I don’t mind) , then sit down (not the most comfortable as you sitting as slant) and they bring your order to you. Coffee is really amazing and I’m a coffee connoisseur. Cinnabon was soft with just the right amount of cinnamon and not too sweet. Scrambled eggs were soft and buttery. Toasted sour dough was pillow soft inside with crunch on the outside. I will definitely be back so keep up the good food.

Really relaxing coffee shop and delicious cinnamon buns, matcha latte, and breakfast! Wish I’d tried this place earlier. Service was friendly. The only issue is there isn’t much seating but I got lucky as someone was leaving so I was able to have a table. The cinnamon buns are a must try!

I’m visiting Cape Town and wanted to have brunch at a café near my accommodation. I love avocados, and this place exceeded my expectations. My husband was a bit disappointed, saying the sandwich lacked enough meat, but I absolutely loved it. The coffee? Perfect, of course! The only downside was that the place was a bit small. It was simple yet special—definitely a place I’d want to visit again.
