Now and again you come across a memorable place that’s so well concealed you feel reluctant to tell anyone about it. The Gardeners Cottage is just that.

A haven of tranquility in the heart of Cape Town’s southern suburbs. Enjoy great food and good service under the huge Camphor trees. Make breakfast extra special with the iconic Eggs Benedict. Sip on Uber coffee made by talented baristas. Browse the deli for cakes, muffins, preserves and pick up a freshly baked sourdough to take home.

    This is a quaint little hidden away gem and absolutely something to just enjoy the surroundings and food. I am disappointed that I couldn't have access to wifi and a charing port for my laptop as I wanted to work there. Nevertheless I think it serves the purpose of being a place for mood and disconnecting deom your phone and laptops for conversation. If that's the case then I think they've achieved that.
