    Under staffed. Hence had to wait long for our food.

    Cafe du Vin responded on Wed 12 Aug 26:
    Thank you for sharing your feedback. As the restaurant became busier during the breakfast and early lunch service, our team communicated with guests that food preparation would take a little longer due to the volume of orders. Your order included our South African breakfast, which does require a little additional preparation time. We did check in with you during your meal and were pleased to hear that you were happy with everything at the time, and that you left on a positive note. That said, we understand that waiting longer than expected can be frustrating, and we appreciate your patience and understanding while our team managed a very busy service. Thank you again for your feedback and for visiting us.

    Beautiful Baby Shower Experience at Café du Vin We recently hosted a baby shower at Café du Vin, and it was truly a wonderful experience from start to finish. The staff were incredibly helpful, attentive, and welcoming. From the moment we arrived, they were present throughout the entire baby shower, ensuring that everything ran smoothly and that all our guests felt comfortable and well taken care of. The food was absolutely delicious and received many compliments from our guests. The atmosphere was warm and perfect for such a special celebration. Thank you so much, Café du Vin, for helping us create such beautiful memories. We will definitely recommend your venue to others and look forward to visiting again. Warm regards, Juvile Preston Carmen
