Courtyard 53 in Plumstead is a quiet garden courtyard with a nursery, small shops and a café tucked among the plants, the kind of spot you wander into for ten minutes and stay for an hour. Good for a slow Sunday browse.
Kloof Corner rewards a short, steep climb up wooden steps off Kloof Road with one of the widest views in the city, Table Mountain to Lion's Head to the Atlantic, Camps Bay and the Twelve Apostles all at once. Free, best near sunset.
Cushty's in Green Point is the neighbourhood café locals quietly rave about for its coffee and cooked breakfasts, a calmer alternative to the Bree Street queues a few minutes away.
