CCape Town always has a new spot. That place all the cool kids gravitate to and end up posting about endlessly on Instagram Stories.

Often, it's not just a drinks spot or a place where you grab some delicious grub, but it's a space you want to sit in for hours and return to, because of its charm, nostalgia, interiors, exterior and overall atmosphere. The city centre, Sea Point and surrounds are lively areas where sandy beaches like Milton and Saunder’s Rock feature tidal pools, kids’ playgrounds and sunset views are the name of the game. Tracing the coastline, Sea Point Promenade is a popular walking route. 

Heading slightly inland, there are abundant sushi bars, fast-food eateries and pizzerias. African handicrafts, craft coffee and live music are among the draws at the colourful Mojo Market.

Did You Know?
TThe Mouille Point Light House is the oldest active lighthouse in the Country, since 1824.

HHere are four new places to visit in the Mother City: 

Arthur’s Mini Super

Grab some classics like anchovy-toast, a cheese toastie or a cheese and jam sandwich at this cute, retro, quirky, red exterior mom-and-pop.  

Sea Point

AAthletics Club & Social 

Grab a drink or some fine-foods at this tennis club-themed spot. The interiors drip with old-school country club charm. 

Fyn Restaurant

A stellar spot for date night dining in the city. The interiors of this CBD-situated, fine-dining restaurant perfectly pair with the restaurant's moody menu. 

The Commissary

Graffiti everywhere, no reservations, no rules. Mimicking a food store in a military base or prison, this uber-cool eatery serves up fire dishes like Korean fried chicken wings and coconut and peanut prawns. 

Eating out in Cape Town is easy—the city's natural abundance of land and sea combined with cultural diversity ensures that there are menus to suit all palates and price ranges.
