Food Scene

2 blocks away from our apartment. Lovely cosy place for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They have a really cheap breakfast during weekdays (About R35 for egg, bacon and toast). Coffee also very affordable. They are also have a nice happy hour deal. Our favourite dish is their flapjacks or their risotto.

Walking distance from the apartment (won't recommend walking at night though). Our favourites: Their pizzas, burgers and tacos. Also have a nice selection of craft beer and love the local Fynbos infused craft gin (Inverroche Verdant gin and tonic).

One of the most popular coffee roasteries in Cape Town. Their steampunk decor and ambience is also definitely a site to see. Highly recommended to check out for coffee, they also serve breakfast and lunch.

We usually go here for pizzas (Love their mediterrean vegetarian pizza) or their wild mushroom ravioli. They also have a bar and screens for watching sports.

One of the only kids friendly restaurants in the city bowl. They have a nice playpark for the kids. Go there for the kids, the food is not my favourite :-)

Good sushi. Not sure if they have a wine license yet. If not, you can take your own wine without paying corkage. There is a Woolworths Food in the same lifestyle centre where you can buy wine.
