Situated in the heart of One&Only Cape Town, the untameable spirit of Vista ignites an exciting reaction. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame majestic views of Table Mountain and a sculptural centrepiece above the bar symbolises the mythical tale of this natural wonder. Day-to-evening entertainment abounds and live music fills the air. From the kitchen, vibrant dishes showcase the flavours of the region, avant-garde Afternoon Tea is a cause for celebration, and masterfully crafted cocktails tempt the palate.

Kindly note that balloons and table décor are not permitted in any of the public venues at One&One Cape Town.

Private venues are available upon request.

Specials

Christmas in July

A little wicked winter warmth never felt so festive. R695 per person. Lush greens, golden bites, and a mood that leans a little bit wicked. Indulgence takes centre stage; croffles made fresh, truffle chicken roulade, perfectly baked pretzel fingers, playful pinwheels, indulgent spread that invites you to stray, just slightly, from tradition

    Being allowed to play the piano for my family at their birthday celebration was a highlight, One day I would like a job like that, playing the piano while people drink their tea. It was a moment not to be forgotten. Just watch out for the basement parking, it is very limited and very tight. Otherwise, a very very special moment.

    This had been a very memorable experience, we felt highly welcome, with Sakhele taking good if not immaculate care of us and Amber readily in the background to ensure and assure. Sakhele displayed a competent mixture of professionalism embedded in a warm and caring personal approach. It felt authentic throughout, he enjoyed being a significant part of creating a special experience. The afternoon tea offering was complete in all aspects, with delicious taste experiences throughout. The vegan and gluten offerings were second to none at this level. We shall return!
