Right next door to the always busy, always full on the Rocks. The Villa is still offering accommodation but the lounger area for tanning has been converted to a seating area with amazing views. The same as the next door neighbor but with slightly less sophisticated seating . You order in Stadler Road entrance and then you can go downstairs and walk straight in a glorious view sea view and Table Mountain. They offers quiches, paninis, croissants, muffins and wrapped sweet treats blocks. The stock cool drink, no box juices for kids and do offer baby chinos (R15) in a take away cup. They use illy coffee that’s really delicious, rounded and smooth. The food then gets delivered to your table in real cups to your table by a waiter. I say real cups as everywhere you go you get offered horrible paper cups even for sit down. I didn’t ask but guessing this was their way of beating the Covid economy slump. Brilliant idea! Opening up that area to more people to enjoy that every exclusive view. I definitely go again as it’s in my area and go and enjoy the marvelous view and great coffee.

Guter Barista, bekannte Illy Qualität. Self-service an der Theke. Es gibt 2-3 Süßigkeiten, nichts aufregendes. Von außen sieht das Cafe nach nichts besonderem aus. Aufregend wird es, wenn man durch das Gebäude auf die Terrasse geht. Sensationelle Aussicht auf den Tafelberg. Die Tische und Stühle sind von der Witterung (Wind und Salzwasser) etwas mitgenommen und werden nicht immer abgeräumt oder gesäubert. Der Blick und die Nähe zum Meer entschädigen allerdings für diese Kleinigkeit.

Hidden gem of a place. The affogato was perfectly made and the carrot cake delightful. You order at the little upstairs cafe where there are one or two seats and then go downstairs into the garden area to enjoy it or just get coffee to go. Not wheelchair friendly. Could use a few umbrellas for shade.

This well run cafe makes great coffee (and quickly) along with some amazing filled croissants! Customer service is warm and efficient. Ask to sit in the "secret" garden space if you wish to enjoy your coffee with a view!

The best place to sit next to the beach and drink coffee and talk. Also the best carrot cake anywhere. Good company, good discussion, good ambience and a majestical view of Table Mountain.

Children love it, but under the care of their parents as this coffee shop is on the beach.

  • Jessica Williams

Their croissants are to die for - a must try along with a caffe mocha. Best part is it's around the corner from the beach which have plenty of benches to sit and enjoy your coffee (there are seating at the cafe itself too).

Perfectly tranquil setting for a peaceful bite or coffee with an unprecedented sea vista view of Table mountain & Robin Island. For people-watching, there are tables along the road/walkway with happy folk running, walking, dogs on leashes, children & a sneak view of Klein babies down the road.

  • Rochelle Skead

Walking out to the garden area feels like you stumbled upon a hidden gem. Beautiful views and atmosphere. Coffee and cake is amazing! The staff is super friendly and kind. It’s a wonderful experience every time.

What an amazing place! Wow - they were open today on Christmas, the management gave out free cute small cups of iced coffee to accomadate the long lines. The staff is very friendly, the coffee incredible, the view at the bottom is stunning, definitely my new blouberg hangout spot.

  • Charles Pretorius

A must stop for coffee, croissants, muffins, ciabattas all served on the beach front that has the most beautiful views of Table Mountain. The staff are the bomb, friendly, efficient and always happy - great stop after walking my dog - and yes, they are dog friendly , what a bonus.

  • Jessy Severins

Lovely little spot. tucked away between a few other restaurants and with the garden with ocean view at the back of the building, this seems like one of those hidden gems. Good nice strong cup of coffee, unbeatable view and the sound of the waves and the birds in the background.

  • Russell

A very peaceful place for breakfast. Order in the shop and coffee and food is brought to your table in the sea front garden. Staff all friendly. Food and coffee are great. Best views of Table Mountain. Love coming here.

A tiny cafe on the road with really wonderful friendly staff that makes awesome coffee... But the real gem is that if you grab the coffee you can walk through the house and sit on the terrace on the beach and enjoy the cappuccino with views. Breathtaking!

  • Philip Botha
