With the cries of Atlantic seagulls overhead, the gentle splash of seals below and the rhythmic clink of yacht masts in the breeze, Cape Grace’s Afternoon Tea is a timeless Cape Town experience set on the edge of the V&A Waterfront marina, with Table Mountain rising majestically beyond. Long regarded as an iconic ritual in Cape Town, this elegant afternoon unfolds with delicate savouries, exquisite pastries and freshly baked scones, curated by our renowned pastry team and served in a refined waterfront setting where tradition meets contemporary luxury.


For younger guests, our Kid's Afternoon Tea captures the magic of the ocean. Inspired by mermaids, sea creatures and the shimmering marina, this playful yet thoughtfully crafted experience invites children aged 5–12 into a world of imagination and delight — making Afternoon Tea at Cape Grace a memorable luxury experience for the whole family.

    Good day We had an overall good experience. Brenda was phenomenal and really gave wonderful service. Also I have to mention that Lindelani in reservations was an absolute star assisting with the reservation.

    From the welcome to the last goodbye was done with grace and attention to detail. Every bite a culinary work of art. We loved the ambiance of the restaurant, friendly warm service and spectacular view. Beautiful decor and art to admire and a calm atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle of the busy Waterfront.

    What a wonderful way to celebrate my sisters birthday. Arriving too early for our booking - we were seated in the library (so stunning) and had delicious cocktails. When our table was ready we were taken through to probably the BEST table in the restaurant. Asanda was the ‘hostess with the mostest’ and she made us feel totally at home. Treated to a glass of MCC before the glorious treats came out for our high tea experience. Charmaine our waitress was phenomenal - never pushy, always there at the right time and going over and above to make our experience a fabulous one! Thank you :)

    Everything as beautifully setup and our waitress Charmaine was so amazing. We had one child with us and she was treated with just as much care and importance as the adults. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience, range offering of savoury, sweet and teas..all with a stunning view!
