Banana Jam Cafe opened in 1999 as a small 45 seater restaurant in the parking lot by Kenilworth station, serving traditional Caribbean food along side burgers and pizza.

In 2010 we moved across the road and expanded to a 200 seater restaurant. With the same Caribbean feel as before we now boast a beautiful garden, an open plan interior with our famous Rum bar, 30 beers on tap and one of the best brew pubs in Cape Town.

    Always have the same food, both versions ofthe buffalo wings were very oily this time, and was not kind to our tummies. Poppers excellent as always.... never got to our mains, the oily wings were a little too much.
