Cafe Sofi is a deeply personal project by Natasha and Savva Sideris, founders of Tashas Group, created as an ode to their beloved mother, Sophia Electra.

It’s a space animated by memory, layered with personal history, and inspired by a woman of beautiful contradictions: a conservative soul wrapped in eccentric packaging, an old-school romantic with an eclectic spirit.

From wholesome breakfasts like spiced milk oats with maple syrup and a cheeky shot of whiskey, to vibrant plates such as grilled salmon with honey-mustard dressing, or delicate crab cakes with citrus mayo, the offering balances simplicity with soul. Each dish is a nod to Sophia’s favourite food and a true reflection of comfort, similarity and honest flavour.


Perfect for every meal, from breakfast to dinner, Cafe Sofi embraces the space’s quirks. It is smaller, more intimate, with a curated menu drawn from Sophia’s favourites.

    A very nice place, with good starters and snacks for vegetarians. Big downside. Definitely needs more vegetarian mains (only one pasta option on the menu). No non-alcoholic beers - good for summer, but there are not many other sophisticated non-alcoholic drinks. Also, no dairy-free or vegan desserts; a sorbet or vegan chocolate mousse could work. Lots of people in Cape Town who want these options

    Lovely new addition to the Cape Town dining scene - but unfortunately not worth the hype. Food was rather average and overpriced and service wasn't great. I probably won't be back anytime soon.
