CAUSE | EFFECT is a vibrant ode to the stunning natural beauty of Cape Town, drawing inspiration from the region’s oceans, mountains, fynbos, and vineyards. Our cocktails are not just drinks—they are immersive experiences designed to be seen, touched, smelled, and savoured.

Driven by creativity, our seasonally evolving menu showcases local ingredients and inventive techniques. From fynbos-infused Vermouth to meticulously crafted brandy-based cocktails, each drink tells a story of South Africa’s rich landscape and heritage.

    Very good overall experience, the sound outside was a bit loud and the voucher was added onto the bill though it was provided at the beginning. We thought the prawns could have been better, the flavours was not as good, but the rest was really good
