Excellent selection of coffees and confectionery to go with it. Always served with a smile (you can still tell behind the mask!)

Good food. Busy with coffee shop and restaurant. Appeared to be popular business stop as many tables were occupied by single patrons with open laptops.

Today, I had a coffee meeting at Michaels in Rondebosch, Cape Town, which I had thought was just a restaurant that’s open at night. To my surprise, it’s a beautiful deli, which serves really great oat milk coffee, and I did notice some scrumptious-looking gluten-free options on the menu. I loved the service, and I appreciated that there was enough parking around the area, and the establishment is just really easy to get to.What really stood out for me, from my experience at Michaels, was the way that the restaurant supports their staff. One of their staff members has a little section on Michael’s deli shelf, selling products from a 9-year-old girl making doorstops – incredibly beautiful door stops, and I bought two! The 9-year-old is raising funds to support her sister, who is not in South Africa. The full story is right by the shelf, and its an incredible show of community support. Michaels could have just thought of themselves, especially during this time, but they chose to be better and more positively impactful. Definitely go and support Michaels! It’s a great place to meet, they have good Wi-Fi access, they are dog friendly – which is a bonus – and the fact that they support their staff, is another bonus worth a trip. 5/5 for sure!

Wow. My favorite spot after school is still producing good food. We stopped in to get a burger on our way home and it was delicious. There was lots on the plate, almost too much to finish, not complaining though. (The price is a bit more than normal but you the amount of food makes up for it as well as the quality of food.) I was happy that when asking for water they they brought us a jug. The service was fast and the staff were friendly. The bathrooms are clean and well decorated. This was a wonderful experience, I will be back soon.

Micheals The Beast is my favourite thing on the menu....it is delicious and hits all the spots! The staff are welcoming and friendly, and acknowledge you when you return for your second visit!

The service was a bit slow. Ordered a brie and cranberry jelly beef burger with sweet potato fries. The burger itself was quite big. However, it was nothing special and a bit overpriced. Ive had excellent burgers for the same price elsewhere.

A lovely spot with a decent menu. Cellphone signal is terrible inside though and the wifi is sketchy. If those were sorted it would be a brilliant remote working office space

We got our coffees nice and quick but our food order took over 40 minutes to arrive.Had the Michaels breakfast which is R92. Think its over priced for what you get. Felt very underwhelmed.3 stars for an average restaurant but nothing to write home about.

While the experience is super, as usual, management is still ignorant of COVID RULES and do not wear masks properly. Otherwise vibey, spacious and friendly. Sadly poor COVID hygiene makes you a super spreader risk so..... down from four to two star rating.

This was our second visit to Michaels, ambiance was good. Food ordered both my partner and I thoroughly enjoyed what we ordered, very tasty,quantity was fine. Service was reasonable. Sad Management do not teach their staff not to remove plates whilst the rest of the table are still eating.WARNING: Do not order wine by the glass. We did. The white wine was not poured in front of us so we could see the bottle, but just arrived in the glass. My partner had two glasses. When the bill arrived so did the shock 2 glasses at R 72.00 each total R 144.00. The duty manager was called and after discussion with her answer that is the price. Cheaper to take your own wine and know you have quantity and quality and pay the R 35.00 corkage. I must admit that the pleasant evening was unfortunately left with a sour taste.

Star for service (excellent), and star for setting (comfortable).I ordered some sort of burger, and I sampled from a friends pork ribs. Overall it was very tasteless. The burger had very little flavor, tasted blend even with whatever extras were on the burger. Also, quite high prices for the menu. Overall very disappointing.I wouldnt recommend it with competition like Jerrys and Tigers Milk close by.

Review №84

Meal was of a low standard, disappointed in the quality of the burger patty. Soft serve was very watery and not creamy at all. Meal was expensive and the quality did not justify the price. You will have a better burger at Rocomamas that is 100% pure beef. Sorry guys you need to step up your game!!!

You local pizza and burger joint. But rustic on the inside. Certainly not pretentious. Pizzas perfectly fine but priced top end. The wine selection is truly awful. Probably as bad as can get in the Cape. Service informal ands fine

Went for dinner. All was fine. The cranberry sauce on the cranberry sauce and brie burger was a hard, stiff jelly straight out of a tin or a jar. It could have been processed strawberry or red jam. I only tasted sugar. And it was not a sauce at all. Uuhhmm this wasnt terrible. But not sure if Ill be back. Maybe theyre better at brunch.
