Undoubtedly one of the best eateries for outdoor eating in the city bowl. The little garden has front-row seats for a view of Table Mountain, making it family friendly too. Some dishes are better than others, but do try the slow-roasted lamb salad.

Warm and cosy Bombay Bicycle Club is one of the permanent homes of the creators of Madame Zingara. (Others in the stable are Kloof-street neighbour Café Paradiso as well as Sidewalk Café in Vredehoek and Café Mozart in the city bowl). This spot has bohemian décor and boasts the warm, friendly service for which the group is known. The food is hearty and delicious; try the pork belly or the Cajun calamari.

Drinks & Nightlife

A laid-back place for a drink before or after dinner at one of the other nearby grazing spots. When that one drink turns into several, it’s nice to move from the outside deck to one of the cosier spots near the fireplace inside.

Really really lovely! Neighbourhood hangout and meeting spot that offers great food and drinks in a chilled environment that encourages a bit of silliness and tomfoolery.

Parks & Nature

Its Table Mountain. You have to go up! The cable car goes up early. I suggest buying a ticket online. That means you can skip the line in the morning. The earlier the better in my view!

One of the most popular hikes in Cape Town. Lions head will take you about an hour to clamber up but you will be rewarded with some of the most breathtaking views of the city and sea you could ever wish for. Don't forget a bottle of water! Great for both sunrise and sunset​! Full moon hikes are very popular as well!

Woolworths is the best place to get everything​ you will need to have a great time in Cape Town! I would take a walk down and Uber back to the apartment with your shopping. Easy.
