De Waterkant Spots
Situated in the trendy area of De Waterkant, located between the city centre and Green Point, you will find two spots worth visiting.
Ground Art Caffe
@charlenebecker
Part art gallery, this is more than just your average coffee shop.
Ground Art Caffe has it all: views of Table Mountain, a great space to work, delicious breakfast, and coffee that never disappoints.
They serve all-day breakfast, including fruit bowls, oats, and avo on toast. Other options are English breakfast, french toast, and croissants. Their 100% Arabica blend coffee is stunning.
Don’t miss their new art exhibition every two months.
