Cape Town & Cape Peninsula
in South Africa

This casual gastropub is indispensable in the Kloof Street, having been known amongst the locals as the best spot for a hearty comforting meal. Although its owners have experiences in Michelin-starred restaurants, the Black Sheep remains an unpretentious and modest dining experience. But best believe that the food is still star-worthy!

Inspired by the owners’ mother, Sophia Electra, Café Sofi is a nod to their favourite recipes. The menu centres on comforting dishes with subtle Greek influences – spanning breakfast and lunch favourites including honey-butter croissants, crispy hake baps, beef ragù rösti, and generous sourdough sandwiches. All served in a soft, light-filled space with striped floors and warm wood furniture just off Kloof Street. 

When we're in town, we love to start our day at Our Local. Preferably with Eggs Florentine, a Mimosa and a good book. Maybe stay for lunch with a friend, so a Caesar Salad and another drink (this time it's probably a Cosmo). Coffee and cake in the afternoon, then dinner with the family. And did we mention it's also a plant shop? What can we say, we LOVE this neighbourhood gem. 

Pajamas + Jam Eatery is was founded by two daughters and their mother and is still family run today. They serve breakfast and brunch in the industrial area of Strand, South Africa, known for its creative setting. The atmosphere is cosy, with a strong emphasis on cafe-style food, homemade items, and baked goods. 

SALT is one of those places, we still think about for days after. It's intimate, it's bustling and it's all about sharing. Grab a bottle of wine, some small plates for the table and chat the night away with your friends. Oh, and the view of the harbour is the cherry on top!

All-day breakfast, freshly roasted coffee and a French Toast we still dream about sometimes. Truth Coffee Roasting has it all, plus a fun steampunk-themed touch. It's the perfect spot to spend the day: enjoy a coffee in the morning, coffee-infused cocktail in the afternoon and one or two fresh croissants in between.
