Origin Coffee Roasting

De Waterkant lunch coffee & tea

If you're a coffee lover, you really can't miss Origin Coffee. It's one of the best specialty coffee roasters in South Africa. They have exciting brews, homemade sourdough and their industrial loft is the perfect place if you want to get some work done.

Our Local

Gardens lunch dinner coffee & tea

breakfast

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.

Platō Coffee - Somerset West

Audas Estate

coffee & tea

A go-to chain for high-quality coffee and matcha, just moments from the waterfront. Order a classic flat white or cappuccino, or cool off with a freezo before heading for a seaside stroll.
