From Wednesday to Sunday, 12h00 to 21h00, the elements café bar is uMhlanga’s chicest spot for gourmet café dining, cocktails, and fresh seafood with uninterrupted ocean front views.

Indian Ocean oysters can be enjoyed with seasonal and delicious dining choices and cocktails that are a taste of summer in a glass. Inspired design elements like ghost chairs, comfy couches and statement chandeliers create the mood, but it’s the views from the floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that remains the talking point.

The bar selection is as classy as the setting with premium liquor mixologist-crafted cocktails, Champagne and Cape sparkling wines alongside virgin cocktails as well as local and imported beers. The all-day dining menu is a combination of fresh seafood, beautifully presented local dishes, as well as salads, pizzas, café classics and desserts.

Celebrating an event? elements café and the mosaic terrace are available Sunday – Thursday as exclusive use venues and the perfect space to host celebrations, private dining, special occasions, or team incentives.

    While our experience was a great one as always, we much prefer the Sunday lunches upstairs at fine dining. In our view, the brunch did not deliver on value for money, whereas breakfast and lunch in the fine dining diningroom delivers value for money. Waiters and waitrons and management are absolutely wonderful, five stars!!!
