——————————————————————————–

We are open for business and open on Mondays! 

Opening Hours: 7 Days a week. Monday to Friday from 07h00-16h00,  and Saturday and Sunday from 08h00-16h00. 

We are proud to offer a beautiful, home-grown, owner-run, cafe space in Brixton, Johannesburg.

Featuring an interior and courtyard designed by talented artist Justin Brett, our aim is to become Brixton locals’ favourite coffee shop and to draw other Jo’burgers to visit and appreciate our beautiful, diverse and artistic neighbourhood.

Enjoy breakfast or lunch with a view of our succulent garden, fish pond and reclaimed tile mural. Enjoy lunch and a cocktail in our courtyard oasis. Come for a quick meal; come and linger over a chessboard, novel or newspaper. It’s also a great workspace given that we have high speed fibre internet! We also host parties and events, just contact us to discuss your needs.

We offer excellent coffee, great food including breakfast or brunch, local craft beer on tap, and a beautiful space to enjoy.

Licensed and serve a great selection of wine, beer and cocktails.

We are located just 3 minutes up the hill from Melville’s 7th Avenue and 44 Stanley. Come try Johannesburg’s trendy cafe, restaurant and coffee shop.

 

Our restaurant kitchen in Brixton, Johannesburg offers unpretentious, flavourful and healthy breakfasts/brunches, lunches and snacks. We offer vegetarian and vegan options. We are inspired by global flavours and interpret them into simple, tasty, home-style meals. Come hungry!

For breakfast we offer classics, like scrambled eggs on toast and croissants. Our delicious signature dishes include our famous Dutch-inspired baked pancakes with bacon and roast tomatoes, Persian-inspired baked eggs, and the Mexican classic, huevos rancheros (sure to beat any hangover hunger!).  All-day breakfast options are available for those lazy weekend days (or when you just need some eggs!)

For lunch we have a range of “ultimate” sandwiches on our home-baked buttermilk and health breads, including a chicken and harissa, or haloumi and avo. Our hearty salads include our version of the Nice Niçoise and the Dense Green with bok Choi and broccoli.

Other favourites are our famous creamy chicken livers served with a home-baked bread, and Inkhukhu Couscous of grilled spicy chicken served with beans and corn on a bed of couscous topped with tomato relish & cucumber salsa.

We have a liquor license. Enjoy a Giraffe craft lager, glass of wine or cocktail with your yummy meal.

For us, coffee is serious business! That is why we make one of the best coffees in Johannesburg.

Our blend of beans from Brazil, Guatemala and Uganda is locally roasted in Johannesburg, chosen after extensive research. The result is a cup of coffee with smooth flavour that cuts through the milk, resulting in a superb espresso.

We chose our cup size to ensure that the ratio of espresso, milk and froth makes an excellent cappuccino. Our Barista regularly adjusts the grind to ensure a perfect extraction.

If you are in a rush, grab a coffee to go in a biodegradable takeaway cup. Better yet, buy a reusable bamboo cup and get your first coffee on the house.

Venue hire and Events . We often host fun and creative events that are open to the public, such as board game evenings, vinyl DJ afternoons, or film screenings. Like our Facebook page or follow our Instagram profile to stay up to date with what’s happening.
