From Wednesday to Sunday, 12h00 to 21h00, the elements café bar is uMhlanga’s chicest spot for gourmet café dining, cocktails, and fresh seafood with uninterrupted ocean front views.

Indian Ocean oysters can be enjoyed with seasonal and delicious dining choices and cocktails that are a taste of summer in a glass. Inspired design elements like ghost chairs, comfy couches and statement chandeliers create the mood, but it’s the views from the floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that remains the talking point.

The bar selection is as classy as the setting with premium liquor mixologist-crafted cocktails, Champagne and Cape sparkling wines alongside virgin cocktails as well as local and imported beers. The all-day dining menu is a combination of fresh seafood, beautifully presented local dishes, as well as salads, pizzas, café classics and desserts.

Celebrating an event? elements café and the mosaic terrace are available Sunday – Thursday as exclusive use venues and the perfect space to host celebrations, private dining, special occasions, or team incentives.

    We booked for 6 people at 1300 but phoned to ask if we could come earlier and that was no problem. The restaurant was very nice with a good view of the sea from inside.The first issue we encountered was a small cockroach running across our table. We were the only people in the restaurant. The service was extremely slow as we were told there was an issue with the kitchen. The waitress as very pleasant and efficient. The food was average with one dish being returned as not good enough -the calamari. It was represented late and was a little better but disapointingThe other dishes were on the whole good. Lunch in the ned took over 2hours 30 minutes and we were the only people there !

    Only the service wasn't so great as the waiter never checked up on us. Long waiting periods and no hot sauce was available.
