Custodian Pastry BarGardens & Kloof Street, Cape Town

"A lo-fi pastry bar on Park Rd tucked into the Longkloof precinct, where the pasteis de nata, croissants and seasonal tarts are the main draw. The coffee is properly good, not Instagram good, and stands up to the bakery it sits alongside."

What we love

• •Pasteis de nata with rotating flavour-of-the-month
• •Top-tier butter and cherry-almond croissants; orange cake called out by reviewers
• •Part of the Hoghouse group, a small Cape Town hospitality chain
• •Walkable from Pauline's Park Rd and Kloof Street coffee stops
