Coffee venues in and around Cape Town

Caffé de Luca on Greenmarket Square

rubbish

coffee

Caffé de Luca® is one of the coffee shops surrounding the tourist-trap that is Greenmarket Square. Their cups are pretty. The coffee is industrial-strength garbage. I'd rather be mauled by the Big Five.

Lafayette – Stellenbosch central

coffee

OK-looking brew, so-so taste. Will do in a pinch. Lovely setting, fireplace & ambient lighting. Divine cheesecake.

Streets – Stellenbosch Square

coffee

Not bad coffee, actually. Not exactly americano, but the delicious homely food & generous portions make up for it.

Olympia Cafe & Deli – Kalkbay

Lovely setting, on Main Road opposite Kalkbay harbour. Great Greek deli, lovely coffee. What's not to like?

With crema like that! Coffee is excellent, food's good. You can find this genuine Italian espresso bar on Main Road, Sea Point.

Balducci's at the V & A Waterfront

Balducci's is in the Waterfront. Avoid it like the plague if you want coffee. Just *look* at what they served me!. And pretentious to boot.

My house

Decent crema, first made with an AEG pump espresso machine, which finally sprung a leak. Currently, a Bosch Barino serves me well.
