Great venue, good selection on the menu, fantastic coffee, best of all was the food. Excellent place for a leisurely brunch. The service was very friendly and efficient. Will certainly recommend it to friends and colleagues.

The service is great. Very tranquil setting. Wide selection of food and cakes. The carrot cake and cheese cake is to die for. Sourdough options available. Very popular for take away coffee and cake (wide selection). Breakfast is served until 11am. Also has a private room for small functions.

I love this place!!! It is such an intimate establishment. Ive been here a couple of times, I really enjoy their food and especially the brownie milkshake which is to die for. Pricing is really fair... Its situated around art galleries so thats an added bonus for an extra activity prior or post lunch... Service is good but at times you can wait a while to get their attention.

Hidden gem, tucked away nicely in the rat race of our city Durban! Soothing Jazz, setting just the right amount of relaxation for your morning grub! A must visit!

Just love going there. Food delicious and ambience is great if you want a quiet chat. Unfortunately the garden for the smokers is merely a veranda hand rail so smoke wafts in ones face as one is eating. Suppose its because I was an ex smoker.......

Very qaint but excellent little place to have a nice meal at. Cuppacino was excellent. The burgers and chips with coleslaw is tops! The patty was superb! Service was a bit slow but the atmosphere was sublime and makes up for it tremendously.

Thank you all🙏

Ended up having 2 flat whites as the first was great and the second was equally good.Had their Mince on Sourdough which they served even though it was after 11am, it is a breakfast item, as they werent particularly busy. They lost a star for rather sloooowww service or maybe time was warped because I was craving my coffee ...

Nice setting on the veranda. Cuppucino coffee was good but not hot enough. The slices of delicious carrot cake arrived after the coffee had been drunk, and we had to ask for them.

What an adorable cafe with the freshest carrot cake Ive ever eaten. The service was great, the falafel burger I had tasted like it was made by someone who doesnt hate vegetarians, and the kombucha was mild and didnt taste like it was almost alcohol. And theres ample parking near the cafe. Fully recommend.

Review №36

The food was great however, the service was mediocre I think for once I experienced what racism was. As we walked in the cafe yard no body welcomed us except one waiter who happened to be the other race in these exact words; choose any place to sit’ not a formal greeting or anything and we had stood waiting for 5min chose to sit by the bench where they walked passed by.Fast forward we found a place ordered our meal, that was breakfast. We requested for the bill for payment surprisingly the prices had already increased which weren’t appearing on the menu nor did the waiter explain anything.We called for the manager first we complained about the service then the rudeness of the waiter he replied ‘that how we work here, sorry’For once in my life I am going to say, I will never ever in my life go back there. Being black is not crime!

Always a delightful experience at Saviour Cafe. The outdoor space is pleasant. Staff is professional and efficient. Love the music and ambience. While the base of the baked cheesecake was delicious, the topping tasted sour, similar to a plain yoghurt and didnt complement the cheesecake at all. Suggest a different topping to enhance this cheesecake.

Always enjoyed popping in for a cappuccino when they were in the Station Road precinct, so decided to pay them a visit in the new premises in Glenwood. Savior Cafe is housed in a beautiful old, lovingly restored Victorian home. The rooms, with high ceilings are light and airy and there is also a magnificent wrap around verandah if you prefer to be outside. When we arrived there were a couple in one of the inside rooms and we were the second table on the verandah ... by the time we left every table was occupied.We werent planning on eating anything, but then remembered I was collecting my licence card at the Road Testing grounds and reckoned sustaince may be required for the lengthy wait ... and glad we did! We both had the Breakfast Bun - 2 rashers of streaky bacon, 1 fried egg, lettuce & tomato on a soft portuguese roll. Superb! Cappuccinos were as good as ever. Staff friendly and efficient.Their is a display of Savior leather goods in the front room.Highly recommended.

The food was lovely and the service was great. The only criticism I have is that the vegetarian options are very limited,which sucks because my husband and I don’t eat meat. We would definitely recommend Savior Cafe to others ❤️🙏🏾 KB & Lelo

We looked forward to our breakfast today as it was really nice the last time we were here, but we were disappointed. I asked for my egg to have a soft yolk and for my bacon to be well done yet when the food arrived the egg yolk was hard, my bacon was tough, cold and chewy. My partners food wasnt much better. We ate the breakfasts as we were in a hungry and waited so long for the food that now we were in a rush to go, but when we complained and the waiter rolled his eyes at me, so rude! he said he would tell the manager but I didnt believe him so I then asked to speak to the manager and he said she wasnt there. We overheard a couple who left before us complain about their food and the two staff were talking about them after they left which I found very unprofessional. This place must just leave their staff of mostly teenagers to run things.@ Winnie S - I dont know if its racism or its just lazy teenagers running the place and the owners are chilling at home?

Whether it’s the Eggs Benedict (with the best hollandaise sauce ever tasted!) for breakfast or a simple but delicious roast chicken sandwich for lunch, Savior Cafe is a great venue for a delicious meal in a mellow setting. Or just come for the coffee...
