A lovely setting. They were out of a few vital ingredients, so a number of dishes were not available, which was rather annoying. Also out of the soft drink that two of our group of ladies wanted. My meal was, however, tasty and enjoyable and my cappuccino was delicious.
Chef Gustav pours his heart out in his food. Delicious, fresh and great ingredients prepared in the smallest of kitchens make this even more special. Great setting and ambience.
I have stayed in PE for 15 years and although Heritage Cafe has been in business for 4 years , I have never visited this establishment. The owner Gustav was very friendly only being outscored by his fantastic chicken salad that was memorable to say the least. The coffee was on par as well with a spectacular ocean view. I would highly recommend all foodies and coffee shop hunters to give the Heritage Cafe a try.
It is located right in the heart of town, but remains rather secluded. I like that! The atmosphere and ambiance is lovely, friendly stuff, and the coffee is GOOD!
Been there twice ...try the burger and fries....mmmm
This quaint cafe is absolutely stunning and inviting. From the warm welcome when you step in the door, to the very comfy seats at the rustic tables. The coffee is simply gorgeous and you have to try the breakfast burger and scotch egg. Both are carefully prepared, presented beautifully and delicious! Sit back and relax in the calm atmosphere and enjoy the view and lovely surroundings in one of PEs oldest parts of town.
Amazing service and food, they serve organic food and use environmentally friendly products
Amazing menu with a great variety and delicious food.
Beautiful meal, peaceful setting on a Saturday morning.
A hidden gem! Ample safe parking, good food and great service. They are only open for Breakfast and lunch, so you might find them closed if you go after 14h00 in the afternoon.
The food is fantastic and the service is great. The atmosphere was great. It felt like you were having a nice lunch in a garden.
Such a nice hidden gem with amazing food
Food & Atmosphere was superb.Must visit if you are looking for something with a Heritage.
The cafe looks beautiful and is obviously popular but the service was pretty shocking, especially being told that anything we order (even just fruit and yoghurt) would take 45min, and there being no sense of interest in us actually sitting down and ordering / providing them with business. Disappointed as it had been recommended, but in the end left without ordering.
The food was delicious. Love the relaxed atmosphere. Didnt feel like you in Port Elizabeth at all.
Good old charm with that typical PE vibe where everybody knows and loves everybody. Warm and charming
Awesome view. Excellent food. Super service
Great service, friendly staff, delicious food and amazing cappuccinos!
My favourite restaurant in PE! They serve the most incredible food. Always perfectly executed and very tasty. Their menu is constantly changing, with new exciting dishes to try out. Great atmosphere and amazing coffee (Mastertons make a blend specially for them).
Such a quaint coffee shop with a lovely cosmopolitan feel. Great food.
Heritage Cafe has a lovely vibe, beautiful setting and delicious food.
Great breakfast and coffee in this hidden gem
Great food and environment
Great vibe and service
Beautiful and quaint little restaurant! My husband and I love coming here and appreciating the history of the city with stunning seaviews to match! Food is fantastic. Hands down the best burger in PE!!!
Best food. Relaxing atmosphere! Loved it.
Love love love... food fantastic. Simple, flavorful, I wanted to kiss the chef! Feeling humble and grateful environment and this relaxed rustic atmosphere. Just the place to be with a good book, and become lost in the heritage of the place. 10/10 for fantastic food. And for service, and cleanliness of the restuarant. Perfect place for girls nice out, and festive celebrations. Spoil yourself here!
All very lovely..relaxing great food and service
Fine and cool ver much impressive
Great relaxing atmosphere. Rustic. Friendly staff, quick service from the kitchen. Once inside, theres no reason to rush.
Been many times and never disappointed. Food is outstanding.
Good food and coffee. Portions are slightly smaller than what I would like, but are still filling enough to make it worth it.
Highly recommended! The food is amazing, coffee is to die for, the view is fantastic and the most friendly staff.Truly a fantastic Cafe right in the heart of Port Elizabeth. Defiantly a must next time you come to town, or if you live here.
Everything you need anytime
Amazing food , best bfast in port Elizabeth hands down
We had a Christmas function there, but continuous table clearing resulted in items being removed before we had finished with these. The lack of airflow is a problem. I had to suggest that a brick be put at the back door to prevent it from closing all the time. BUT having said that, the food was really good and our host was very attentive. Great coffee.
Best food, best atmosphere and best service. A must try!
A little gem! Most probably the best burger Ive ever had. Friendly staff. And I love the decor and layout.
Although it might be hard to find, once you get there, the place is well worth the treasure hunt! A very little relaxed cafe with a minimal menu whilst still providing for a range of flavors. As a vegetarian, I was so impressed with the flatbread with hummus and poached eggs (plus more) and their coffee is absolutely fantastic! Such a quaint little comfortable place to meet friends for a brunch or late lunch. Would 10 out of 10 recommend!
Amazing view and excellent coffee...
Food was delicious, enjoyed the setting of the restaurant. Lovely bathroom
Pleasant and peaceful atmosphere
Awesome food
A unique experience and a great one at that. Part of the historical side of Port Elizabeth and well worth a visit. Beautiful little stone building with lots of character.
Great food and friendly service
Simply one of the best
Always a chilled experience, except for the piping hot cappuccino!
Lovely gorgeous set up and decor. Arrived 2.45pm with boys for coffee and cake. Manager told me he had a meeting and shop closed at 3pm. So he couldnt help us. When I asked not even a coffee he said if its quick.If he was owner he would have us stay and make R150 extra for the day.
What a beautiful little Gem of a place. Great atmosphere and ambiance and fantastic people. Food was amazing too.
What an amazing breakfast with outstanding hospitality
Fantastic food, never disappoints. Decor and views are gorgeous. The whole experience is special.
Good service lovely food
Where great minds and tranquility meet...
Stunning setting and good food. Felt a little rushed with only one other table occupied in the early morning. The setting is so beautiful you cant be rushed, will be back to take in what I missed.
Amazing food with great detail to plating!
Read about this delightful place in Beeld newspaper 9 June in Pretoria.Took my 80 year old parents for breakfast and trip down PE memory lane this morning. Best mushroom/spinach/egg toast, service, ambience! Patient waitress, wonderful host and warm atmosphere. We will be back. Pity I dont say in my home town anymore...
Lovely spot. Friendly, efficient service. Delicious food. Best cappuccino Ive ever had in Port Elizabeth. Well worth a visit.
Very relaxed and laid back atmosphere. Food good. Friendly service..
Quite nice place, with delicious food and drinks. The interior here is really cool one😍
Good service, great coffee and tasty food. Views over the bay are stunning
Love this place! Has a truly unique, relaxed, super welcoming vibe. Their chef is amazing and cooks up meals to die for. Would recommend visiting if youre in the area, or choosing them as a destination for something different for lunch.
An intimate spot. Great food and ambience. It creates a sense of new life for the inner city. We are soon going to have our own “Maboneng”.
I had a lovely little breakfast with my mom this morning. For the first time I felt completely fulfilled, I had the best coffee and the mushrooms on toast was amazing. Our waitress offered the best service 🌟 a definite gem.
Lovely setting, friendly staff, beautifully presented meals and divine coffee. Highly recommended. Will definitely return.
A cafe with a charming character, from the decor to the menu. The freshly squeezed juice is a must-have!!
Lovely place. Excellent carrot cake and wonderful coffee. Charming waiter

Superb! Its a lovely café with comfortable sofas as well as table and chairs, great staff and fabulous food. We had a veggie fritter which was delicious and the coffee was also great. I highly recommend this café.
Great food and service. Cosy place with a not so ordinary menu. Will visit again.
Consistently excellent service and food!
Its okay.Very cool, historic location. But the food wasnt impressive enough to warrant another visit. Slightly overpriced for what you get. Paid 55rand for a egg, mayo and bacon sandwich that came out of the fridge. Average.
What a wonderful little warm and cozy spot and a delicious lunch which we all thoroughly enjoyed together with the awesome company of Gustav and Jacques.
The best breakfast I have had in a long time. Friendly staff who ensure you enjoy your visit.
Excellent cuisine, ambience, service and price.
Great spot to have coffee, a quick meal and hangout with a friend.
Most amazing place service and atmosphere
I love this space its real cozy and nice to work in. Theres a couple of things they can do to improve but i am very happy with this space
Great place to relax and have great coffee and a nice meal!
Small and intimate situated in the new revival of Donkin precinct. Booking is essential.Manager was vigilant as we were told by a waitress that the inside area was filled.He called us back and made a plan for inside seating.We ordered hot drinks. Chai Latte is one of the best Ive had. Creamy and smooth.Our food order was Cape Malay Lamb Roti which was filling, spicy and very yummy.Excellent value for money.Ave. R110 per head including a drink.Waitresses are needing more experience.Cutlery had not been wiped down effectively. Had to get up to change as she did not notice our signals.Really liked the paperless bill system.Highly recommended. Will definitely go back...
Wonderful views and setting. Coffee not stand out. Service good.
Food great and the service excellent
Great place. Great coffee. Try it, you will like it.
Really friendly staff, the food was very tasty and you have an amazing view of the bay.
