Mukena is the guy that not only looks after every customer so beautifully, he also brings the sparkle, the giggle and the pizzaz with every cup. Love this shop and the opportunity to chat with him every morning ✨

This company just does things so well the look and feel is unreal. Coffee was great quality and tasted awesome. Also they have a special for those.cyclers out there before 830 coffee is R18. Do wish that had a little kids area. Also the waitors and management team are so polite and helpful.

Popular stop for cyclists and locals in the morning as the sun warms up the cool morning air. Banana bread and freshly squeezed juice a must try. Staff always ready to help with recommendations.

5 stars for this Bicycle and cycling friendly coffee shop, where the staff welcome cyclists and their bicycles. Great coffee and fantastic banana bread - ideal before or after a cycle.

Cannot recommend this place and the staff enough. We visited a few times and just loved the place! The staff are so friendly and welcoming, especially Primrose & Jabu (I think it was?). They even lent us some umbrellas for the day for some shade at a braai we were having for my brothers re-arranged wedding. Cant wait to go back.

Review №18

Well located and hugely popular, but unfortunately the service can be slow on busy days. The salmon bagel was a bit small and chewy. But the omega smash was more satisfying and better value for money. The coffee never disappoints.

Bootleggers has a groovy vibe to it when you first enter. The staff are very friendly and the service is super quick and efficient. I’ve enjoyed my morning coffees there, and occasionally indulge in their vegan burgers which are super nutritious and delicious!

Would recommend avoiding due to how slow the service is. I went in today at lunch when it was half full, and there were at least four waiters working. I was seated outdoors immediately, but then waited about 20 minutes for anyone to acknowledge me or take my order. This was all while other tables received their food and three separate waiters walked past me. I almost walked out. When someone finally took my order, there was no greeting or friendliness. I received my banana bread and latte quickly, but had to flag someone down to ask for utensils while everything got cold. After I was finished, I had to ask two separate waiters for the bill, and then waited a while to actually get it. All in, I spent 50 minutes there just to have a latte and banana bread; I can’t imagine what a full breakfast experience would be but I’d have to clear my calendar for it I’m sure.The banana bread was good but the latte tasted weak.

Location is very cool, easy access to a few nearby beaches. Popular spot for cyclists and runners doing the coastal routes. Service was really great, the waitress was very friendly and confident in her knowledge of what was available. Bread was delicious as well as the coffee! Also, they serve almond milk so thats a big win!

Review №54

Lately Ive taken to spending a lot of time at this Bootlegger. I cant get enough of Bootlegger! Whether its for breakfast, or a Mexican-styled Bhuddha bowl (my favourite), or just a regular number 6 (a fresh juice). I highly recommend this place too for people who need a place to sit down and work remotely. Thank you, Bootlegger.

Very bad service and experience. Was w our small child, couldnt get even an apple juice after 40min of ordering and waiting. Asked 3 different waitters and they simply said they will report the manager. Anyways unclear why anyone would recommend this place.

Food was good but we had to wait 50 mins for our order, thats extremely long for just a table of 5. The coffee was quite good though. Not impressed.

Ja
Review №66

Friendly and top-notch service. same goes for the food... as a coffee lover and addict, its rare for me to walk into a coffee franchise and find myself getting more excited for the food than the drinks (which they also have an amazing selection of)

Review №68

Great location, but unfortunately thats all that this spot has going for it. The food was bland and expensive and the coffee was served cold. On top of this, we were charged extra for condiments without warning (such as the fresh chilli).

Jo
Review №69

Bootleggers offers consistently good coffee (worth a tempting reduced price before 08:30), friendly service and tasty food. If you bring a pooch, they are allowed to even sit inside and will be provided with a bowl of water.

Review №71

All cyclists love this place and l would advise you not to go there when you are in a rush. Wait up to 25mins for coffee or they would have forgotten you

Great place for drinks or lunch! good luck finding parking though lol

Review №73

Nice food and friendly staff. Only problem is way too small for the number of customers in the morning. Failed 3 times to get a seat due to the number of cyclists stopping after coming down the mountain.

As with all Bootleggers the coffee is very and the quality of the food is above average. They lose a star because there offering of R18 for a coffee if you order before 8:30, has now fallen away.

Good restaurant, especially for breakfast, but it suffers from inconsiderate patrons. Being surrounded by smelly cyclists is not conducive to a good breakfast, especially if you have to remove their helmets from your table.
