Cape Town restaurants beckon with a wide variety of local and international cuisines. A must-try is the incredibly popular local hangout, Olympia Café. Just across from the Kalk Bay Harbour, Olympia Café offers everything from breakfast, pastries, and cakes to tasty dinner entrees. Expect a wait, especially on weekends as the whole community drops in. Around the corner the bakery offers fresh breads, spreads, and pastries.
Another favorite among the locals is Café Caprice, the place to be seen in Camps Bay. Cafe Caprice offers something for the eye and the stomach, with great views of Camps Bay beach, beautiful people, and good food. It's a favorite of locals who pack the venue full all weekend and many weekday evenings. You may have to wait behind actors and sports stars, but a morning, lunch, or evening at Cafe Caprice will get you in the swing of Cape Town life.
If you're on the lookout for seafront seafood, head to Wharfside Grill. According to locals in the know, the Wharfside Grill in Hout Bay takes the honor for the best seafood restaurant in the Cape. Catch the real flavor of Cape Town, book a table at these restaurants.
