"A converted monastery courtyard in Green Point, with baked goods worth the detour and latte art that actually holds up."

What we love

  • •Former monastery building with a sun-drenched courtyard
  • •Latte art precise enough to earn praise from the unconvinced
  • •Baked goods are the headline, not an afterthought
  • •Coffee plays second fiddle to the food, and still comes out worth ordering

The espresso earns the name above the door. If you're moving through Green Point, this is where to stop.

Cedar Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist
Woodstock

Winston is a South African Barista Champion and roasts every bean in the cup. Order the Ethiopian anaerobic natural as a pour-over; it's what serious coffee travellers cite when asked for the best they've had.

Cedar Hatch★★★ Purist
City Centre

Cedar Coffee Roasters put their café inside a CBD sneaker store on St Georges Mall. The pour-overs through a Timemore Crystal Eye Dripper are the best in Cape Town.
