Great cyclist stop with lovely food, coffee and ice cream. Dedicated bicycle parking area. They have a little market where you can buy staples, wine, craft beer, etc which should be very useful when staying in Scarborough and surrounds.

We stopped at The Village Hub for a coffee and snacks en-route around the Cape Peninsula. Service at the take-out counter was friendly, fast and efficient. Whilst it was an overcast and drizzling, we were accommodated under the umbrellas. Definitely worth a future visit for breakfast/lunch.

This is a regular stop for great coffee and Chai Latte en route when cycling. Its also a favourite food and shopping stop for my guests traveling from all over, along our Cape Peninsula tour. Great food, service, organic deli, and people like owners Ivan and Lisa! A must do.

Really cool place to be found in the Deep South. It is a deli, a cafe, ice cream parlor, grocer, winery, and even has mushroom biltong. It is dog friendly and the outside area is covered and spacious enough for social distancing. They have a variety of craft beers. We ordered the lost coconut and it was great. The pizza was shared between two adults and two hours later I can still remember the flavours. We had the witsands pizza. Really good. Toilets are clean and well maintained. The staff very friendly and the owner even had time to come give our doggies some treats. We will be back

The Hub Cafe in Scarborough is the place for coffee and croissants with bacon. Lovely service, polite and happy. Ideal for passing cyclists but even better for geriatrics taking their grandchildren out before they drive you mad. Best coffee in Cape Town, I had several and now have palpitations.

We found this gem whilst looking for another. This pleasant surprise find is a treat for all those looking for healthy, tasty, organic and sustainable food. From groceries and fresh produce to home/personal care and meals, Forages is worth the scenic drive. Dont forget to try one of their yummy fresh squeeze juices whilst you there.

Cool vibes and decor and great food. Mediterranean chicken wrap is good. Some nice beer.Staff in the shop area could do with some slight etiquette lessons, like pushing past customers without saying excuse me, etc.

Fantastic food, ambiance, just the perfect lunch spot if youre planning a visit to Cape Point. Worth the 20min drive to Scarborough from the point. Much better than the usual restaurant stop at Cape Point. Highly recommended!

Had both dinner and breakfast over the last two days. Food was great on both days although there was a meal missed at our table at dinner. Of the two preferred breakfast - really tasty and particularly enjoyed the pork sausage. Smoothies were also excellent and the coffee is very good.

Upstairs is a large, airy balcony with comfy couches and glimpse of the ocean: the perfect place to enjoy a summer lunch in the Cape.The menu isnt packed with options, but theres enough to satisfy a variety of tastes.The burger I had was really tasty with a good helping of hand cut fries and a side salad that wasnt just an afterthought.The iced coffee comes in a small glass, but its strong and rich - one of the best Ive ever had.

The best iced coffee and ice cream in Scarborough by far. Very pricey but acceptable for a once off treat. We sat outside enjoying our ice cream and coffee but were disturbed by baboons and had to run to our car for cover. Luckily the Baboon monitor was close by and we could sit outside again.

The pizza I ordered was by far one of the best thin crust pizzas Ive had for a long time! Staff was also very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately no WiFi/internet, as this is often the case in SA restaurants and bars... I think, nowadays, owners should be aware that a lot of customers pick their restaurant or bar by the WiFi offered... Especially tourists and travelers who dont have a local data simcard. But despite that, great place for thin crust, crispy pizza!

Darling and I started 2020 on a blissful culinary note by heading to The Hub Café in Scarborough - a favourite meeting spot when were down that way. I had a bocconcini salad with deliciously dressed leaves and a generous bowl of steamed edamame beans on the side. Darling tucked into a home-made burger and wedges, complemented with my avo on the side (yuk). The Café chef is genius; the restaurant is family-, couple-, cyclist-, basically everyone-friendly. The wine is chilled and the service cheerfully slick - and on the way out we bought heavenly ice-cream cones to savour as we admired the views on the way back to Kommetjie.

I would say from my personal experience that i will not go backMyself and my husband and our friends from Port Elizabeth made a stop hereWe went in to check menu out and well they were busy i went to the loo. When i come back the whole staff of the place was looking for me and i heard the one said they were 5 the other one still inside. The lady literally called the staff member from upstairs to look for me. When i come to the exit my husband told me lets rather go cause the people acting like we going to rob the place cause they were also crossed question. Till today i dont know what it was. Maby they dont get group customers.

Interesting little shop with lots of healthy treats including water kefir and kombucha. There is also bakery, cafe and restaurant, which left a good impression, except that the portion size of the meals could have been bigger. Moreover, I was looked at strangely when returning a bag of licorice due to the contained gluten as I am gluten intolerant. Would have hoped for a bit more forthcoming treatment.

Lovely restaurant and the food is excellent. I have eaten there a number of times when I have been on my own and had great service. Very disappointed to learn that the restaurant does not support guide dogs in training for the blind as I would love to have continued my support.Very happy to hear this was a misunderstanding. Thank you for your prompt response and resolving the issue. Love your restaurant and will definitely be returning.

R185 for a cold piece of steak. After an extremely rude experience with the manager. I decided to have a glass of wine and survey the menu. Ahh chef special. I shell have the steak and prawns yum! The shock of the evening wasnt just the meal but the manager approached to solve the problem of the meal. Cold very well done steak of only three small pieces. Iv eaten here before and had excellent food and excellent vibes tonight unfortunately was a expensive nightmare. I fear the cold prawns will food poison and i shell pop by in the morning to relieve myself of the cold meal that costed R185.

Hugely disappointed in our experience today. Having initially gone to the Scone Shack as we had all missed breakfast in order to enjoy their legendary scones. 35 minutes of waiting to even place an order (they had not anticipated the numbers of people out to enjoy what Cape Town had to offer on a public holiday and were seriously under staffed), caused us to give up and head for The Village Hub. By now it was close to lunch time but all 3 of us still wanted scones! I took the precaution of asking one of your staff if scones were available before we sat down. We were assured we could have scones so placed our order for 3 scones and 3 hot drinks. Only when the hot drinks were placed in front of us were we informed there was ONLY ONE Scone available. By now we were beyond hungry so without even looking at the menu, 2 of us agreed to settle for croissants with jam and cheese. Drinks were long finished by the time these arrived so the whole experience of enjoying a coffee and scone/croissant was lost. But then to find we had been charged R20 per croissant PLUS R8 for jam and R20 each for a pile of very ordinary grated cheese was just the final nail in the coffin of what should have been a lovely family day out. Just feel so let down and we are not people with a lot of money to spend so just feel so let down and ripped off. Brenda Field Tokai

Fancy food. Chefs do a great job. Langoustine starter looked great, pork burgers attractive - pork tender, lamb really curry tasty. Tapas portions. Small. If you are hungry and looking for lots of protein give this place a skip. Youll get protein but veg and carbs dominate. My vegan friend will love it.

Wow. Had a booking tonight and no over-excited expectations after having a fair to good breakfast downstairs the morning before. But this was incredible. Springbok Fillet, the Signature Seafood Platter. There‘s no words to it. Everyone on the team is doing her/his best and you can tell from the hospitality, vibe and, of course, the taste.

Hands down The Best burger we have ever had. The portions and quality of ingredients used definitely justify the price point. We recommend to anyone who wants a beautiful meal in a beautiful area.
