Overlooking the Atlantic, it offers a refined yet easy-going setting where guests can enjoy breakfast, lunch, or dinner in a beautifully designed space that balances sophistication with comfort.

The menu is inspired by simple, modern café dining with a focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients and globally influenced flavours. Expect everything from fresh seafood, gourmet burgers, salads, and comfort-style mains, alongside curated wines, cocktails, and coffee. The experience is designed to feel both elevated and welcoming, whether for a long seaside lunch, sunset drinks, or a relaxed evening meal.

    I was on my own so there was a limit to how much I can consume. I totally enjoyed my orders! Had the Kudu Carpaccio and Ostrich Fillet.

    Beautiful location overlooking the beach at sunset time. We went for the winter special 2 course deal and the food was excellent and great value for money. Wait staff were courteous and helpful.

    Really need to improve on the waiter service, hospitality was lacking. Recommendations: Sit your guests, introduce yourself if a different waiter is assigned mention that and have the waiter at the table within 5 mins, they come with the complementary bread introduce themselves and take drinks order…. Then the rest per usual there can be delays after this which will be understandable.

    Fantastic experience at Mantra Café! We had a wonderful time at Mantra Café, especially enjoying their Winter Menu. The selection was varied, creative and consistently excellent in quality. Everything was beautifully prepared and offered at a really great price-performance ratio. A special thank you to Ashley, who looked after us exceptionally well and made our visit even more enjoyable with her friendly and attentive service. A big thank you to Ian and the entire Mantra Café team for a fantastic experience. We’ll definitely be back! Highly recommended. ❤️
