The Essence of 1904
Built in the 18th century, our charming venue began as a humble home in Hermanus’ historic fishing village. Today, it stands as a cultural landmark, beautifully restored to welcome guests from near and far.
Our name, Café 1904, is inspired by the year the harbour breakwater was raised, a symbol of growth, strength, and stability in the face of the region's fierce waves. This ethos guides us as we build on a foundation of culinary excellence, expanding our capacity to welcome you inside and out on our shaded terrace.
