Pictures Copyright ©️ blackjohannes. Pictures as is and was not edited or manipulated. This is a general overview of 44 Stanley. It was one of the gems of Johannesburg. Saturdays and Sundays were especially special under the trees, having breakfast or lunch or had an evening Pizza. Covid has affected the place and has a more empty feelings. Sundays is a rush close at 16h00, whilst most shops are closed and restaurants or coffee shops are limited. Salvation Cafe has survived. Wonderful place to sit outside. The service is as bad as it has always been. The food is overpriced and overrated. Parking guards are as a nuisance as always. Miss the personal touch of the personal service of L8, which has been replaced to different place. The burger and chips and espresso came from Salvation Cafe. Cold chips and an average burger for R128. Not served in a usual appetizing way and the buns were not fresh. They still dont get espresso great. Bean there is still there but operate limited hours. Vovo Telo is long gone. New bar with lovely outdoor seating and occasional live band. The bookstore is next to Bean There and has been a long survivor. From time to time there are new niche shops open. The big lounge has closed. It creates a big gap. Stanley 44 is worth to visit, but there is a lack of cohesion, different opening and closing times and it seems the owners just dont want to bring a nice vibe back.
A really beautiful chill out space. Has a beautiful vibe any day of the week. The home of handcrafted furniture and artisan works. This spaces hosts handmade chocolate deli, Bean There coffee, Mr Vinyl, Salvation Cafe and Deli. There is a beautiful gallery, bookstore, bag store and also homes the Petagonia suppliers for South Africa. It’s a beautiful hang out spot for more mature crowds a bit intimate. There is a lot of parking outside.
Love the vibe of this place. Beautiful up market boutiques. I got myself a gorgeous genuine leather handbag from Rowdy. Worth checking out and grab a bite at Salvation Cafe
Has amazing coffee places and eateries, the atmosphere is relaxing, clothing stores from formal to casual and theres a plant store which was my best part, second only to the rich audio library and art store, and theres a vinyl store for music lovers
Great restaurants. Beautiful. Love the stores. One could spend an entire day here. Love it. And it’s super clean and safe. friendly staff .
If you get a chance to go dont think twice, beautiful place 👌🏾🔥😌
Amazing place with a vibe. Different restaurants offer different foods and there are also a few places to do some shopping. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to have a fun, relaxed time.
Contemporary vibe type of space, art studios, vibey restaurants and clothing stores
Have not sat down here as yet but I love the artsy vibe they have going on. Its refreshing to find a little nook within the city that allows for creativity. They even have a little art gallery there which Im dying to visit soon as I can and sit down for a meal at a restaurant. Not forgetting the beautiful boutiques they have in the space. You would not be disappointed if you like a quiet but vibey place.
Beautiful place. Its an experience, its like an escape from reality
Beautiful apartments, very ordely with no noise and tight security. Only setback is the lack of two bedrooms flats.
I love the atmosphere, different shops to visit. Its a trendy place that attracts both young and old crowd.
Wonderfully party with the arty....A few scattered bespoke galleries, though the prices tend toward the more high-end commercial—matching luxury boutiques and independent-designer stores. A sprinkling of vacant shops evidences the C19 impact. That truly saddened me. Go and support our locals.
Primarily go to voicin for stoneground flour. staff really helpful.
Amazing place to hangout, have a lunch at salvation and buy the most beautiful towels. You just always feels on holiday and overwhelmed by the nature in the city. I Love it. Can’t wait to back.
A nice hidden gem for lazy loungers like me. Walk through art spaces, eat good food, drink and enjoy live performances.
An absolute must to visit. Excellent food at Salvation Cafe, pick up vinyl that you have been searching for, invest in a print and get the best coffee beans for the week
Great place for refreshing and vibing with the feel of the outdoors
Hipster valley, but its quite nice. I even got fancy coffee. You can find beer (even non crafty) at the cinema.
Live music was fantastic jazz band playing. Feels very Soho New York or like London cosmopolitan vibe. Interesting shops, places to eat and wines
Visited Peachy for their event with Plug In Theatre. Was a very enjoyable and entertaining evening! Will definitely go again for their flamingo cocktail. Food was delicious, though too expensive for the portion size.
This is such a lovely, quaint entertainment and shopping area. It never disappoints. The crowd is eclectic and easy going. I always enjoy my visits there.
Beautiful spot with unusual stores and nice restaurants. Sadly some stores have had to close, hopefully theyll be able to come back soon.
44 Stanley is a wonderful location but it has been badly hurt due to COVID. Hoping the retail outlets, restaurants and boutiques come through the pandemic. Certainly a visit
A place for good food nice designer and hand crafted shoes
Beautiful, tranquil and youll find everything from clothes to furniture, all locally produced. Yes, its expensive, but if you cant afford a R1750 pair of beautiful, art deco but everyday material pair of earings, Im sure you can afford a cup of coffee for R25.Some of us buy flowers, to get the same feeling walking into a flat that someone else gets walking into a mansion. Youre welcome in this space if you love the beautiful things that life has to offer, no matter the might of your pocket.Its one of my favourite places in JHB, and while I have to save up the whole year for a pair of earrings, I pop in anytime I have enough to get even if its just a cup of coffee.
Hidden away behind busy joburg streets and apartment blocks, but its worth finding for all its restaurants, coffee bars and hipster stores
An interesting collection of shops. You sure to find something for yourself or that special gift.
I went to a coffee shop i used to frequent may years ago, called Bean There, awesome place
I liked the chocolate shop, nice chocolate beverages available. There are also places that offer cooked meals and a couple clothing shops. Nice cozy place.
If we were not on Barista training I don’t think we would appreciate all that goes into the coffee served at Bean there. Absolutely a must experience and take time to chat to the baristas to learn more about their business.
I love it... Very chilled relaxing atmosphere
An old favourite destination, with stacks of venues ...But it has been hard hit by the CoVid nonsense ...Some memories can now only be played back in the mind ... The places are no more ...There is an abundance of new enthusiasm ... Best wishes to all those keeping the place alive ...Both old and new ...Still worth a visit ... But expect some different options ...
Lovely little cluster of small stores and restaurants. Even found a great reading spot with little day beds at a restaurant. Also has this lovely record store if thats your thing. Worth popping in.
Ive always loved the joburgness of this place yet still feeling slightly removed and secret whilst in joburg. Theres enough variety to keep a person happy and the addition of The Bioscope has made me quite chuffed.
Great place to hang out with friends. Surprisingly Musical.
Great vibe, delicious food, top notch service.
Just by entering, the nature like kinda vibe restaurant just hits, so lovely. For more, get inside ooopppss
Awesome Vibe, Food, Drink(Cocktails). Had a lot of fun with friends and I plan on bringing my family here too! Good selection of stores and cafes.
Very clean, great spot for a Sunday outing :)
Good place for cafés and boutique shops.
Awesome restaurants and lovely little boutiques and shops. Definitely recommend. Kid friendly and lovely vibe
I love it here and so will you. Laid back, minimalistic shopping center that is pet and kid friendly. Great restaurants with outdoor seating and cute clothing shops. Itscvecome my go to breakfast spot
Really enjoyed 44 Stanley, great vibe. The food was fantastic @Vovotelo. My only concern was how close the tables were to each other, a bit more distance between the tables would have been nice.
Great place to eat and to connect with friends.
Lovely shops. Only gripe.. bathrooms are awful. Restaurants limited..very Bohemian..if thats your thing them this is the place.
Very lekker spot, loads of unique shops, restaurants and coffee shops
The best place to be have launch
I love this quaint and entertaing spot. So diverse and a wonderful spot to chill with family and friends...
Most beautiful awesome place in JHB
Trendy, relaxed vibe. Ablutions need a bit of an upgrade, but the shops and eateries offer many delights!
Beautiful place. Quaint coffee shops and specialty stores. Unique offerings. Note parking spots available on the road and special parking on open ground close by
My favourite place to chill, work, have a drink and the best chicken wings in South Africa. Always great jams, always amazing vibes.
Awesome shops and restaurants. They have a handmade leather bag shop that sells beautiful bags at good prices.
The best vibe in town
What an amazing place to do shopping. Getting that special gift for your loved ones here is an absolute pleasure.
The Bioscope, Chocoloza and Salvation Cafe, amongst many other boutique stores, are nestled here.
Loved it, the variety🤪
You can definitely take someone on a date there. Very private . Theres also an art gallery.
Visited Salvation Cafe...always such a winner! Awesome food, great service
I was there on a Monday midday. Not too many people. Place was almost empty. Vovotelo restaurant moved from Stanley 44 but details not yet updated as at 27 September 2021 on google
Exceptional ambious! Friendly customer service, really cool spot for creatives, loved the chips and sauce offering, just wish more variety sauce for wings like barbecue could be on list... Nonetheless an amazing beautiful spot. secret location kind of vibes
The place is nice and quiet.
Lovely spot with plenty of trees and nooks with interesting stores. The chocolate shop is a must visit and sitting outside for a coffee and great food at Vovo Telo is wonderful.
Always lovely to stroll around. However sad to see the closure of a few shops/restaurants in the past months. Salvation Cafe always a favorite.
Went there for a afternoon coffee and to my desmay .. Most of the coffee shops that I knew was closed🥶🥵🤯
A must see place in Johannesburg. Its like a hidden treasure! You have to go to the Beer Yard (newly renovated), Mr Vinyl and Bean There! And these are just a few of the great places there.
Cute spot for a day outing. Went to Salvation Cafe for brunch and bought some delicious chocolates from Chocoloza . Will be going back to try some other restaurants
Different way of doing things will multiple options of entertainment, food and something of everything.
Such a gem! Awesome vibe and great restaurants
Place for great coffee lunch experience s
The place is very beautiful. A Good idea for outdoor eating. The problem is when it is raining, the place is very sunny day friendly
Great place to catch up with loved ones, variety of shops and great resturants.
Such a great lunch venue. The food is delicious and the live jazz band under the olive trees creates a lovely atmosphere.
It was my 1st time there so I was amazed by the set up and ambiance of the place... quiet chilled.
Always good place to be!
This store is a breath of fresh air, the owner is extremely helpful and the products are organic. Highly I mean I highly recommend this place.
Food is delicious. Cocktails are deliciouser. DJs add the right buzz and daybeds make it all chilled AF. Top spot. Highly recommended.
Had a good time there. Very good coffee from one of the coffee shops and great food from one of the restaurants. The only letdown was the toilet. It could have been cleaner
Parking 🅿 assistance dont know their job well... 2 cars with no ♿ sicker parked ♿ space... I struggled to get out old man with wheelchair ♿ from the car...
Such a lovely place with a variety of eating spots
Cool shops. Great quality made by artisans.
