Mostly a student hangout with a coffee shop a an emergency grocery shop. Basically like a fuel stop coffee shop

Excellent service, good food, good prices. I love 😻

Very friendly staff and perfect for a quick bite :)

Good food and nice atmosphere

Really amazing student cafe, the wraps are nnnice

Amazing food at very affordable price. Everything else is a bit pricey but anything they make there is very good. Cashiers arent the friendliest but its been the same people working there for at least the last 4 years. A Student hub and great when you need a quick meal or need any essential quick.

Fairly expensive, but good food and convenient. Would get 5⭐ if their stuff was priced more in line with market standards

Very long wait (45min) and had to remind kitchen as they forgot to make our order. Eventually received the completely wrong order.

Great assortment of food and a kitchen that is quite quick in meal preparation.

Great place to get food 👌👌 great student shop. Fast service!

A large variety of food. The food that is made at the shop is not halaal though

Waited 30min for a ciabatta with no other customers in the shop. Service wasnt great either.

The food is always good, especially if you take into account that the dishes are made fresh on order and comes at a reasonable price. Depending on the time of year/week/day this place could either be over crowded or empty. Sometime they also close during the silent season. Because the food is made fresh there might be quite a wait.

Can be very crowded at times. Just choose your timing right.has some great value for money Ciabattas that you can order. And the ready made food is ideal for a quick meal.

My favourite quick stop for some basic groceries, coffee, yummy and cheap premade meals or even to order a nice meal. Very quick and friendly service. The burgers and ciabattas prepared in the kitchen are DELICIOUS! And closes at 00:00, perfect for a midnight snack.👌👌

Good food and convenient placement buy food here quite often prices are a bit expensive but food is extremely enjoyable. Store also only closes at midnight making it a great spot to get food after a late night

Its perfect for students- they have the most delicious variety of ready-made food. If you want to order something fresh, be prepared to wait (they take forever). And like all convenience stores, daily items are more expensive. But if you want cheap and delicious ready made food, you cannot go wrong!

Prepared food selection is great. Great for convenience items like aspirin,milk and bread. Highly underrated, the staff were good and friendly.

Great convenience shop for students. It is, however, on the more expensive side as most convenience shops are. You can find some quick takeaway food and snacks for your study sessions. Its most convenient after church in the evening. Its a life saver, although a pocket killer.

The food is really great, but I was really upset about the fact that they changed the meat supplier for their beef burgers and didn’t let the customers know. It tastes completely different. It tastes rubbery as if it comes from the box. I was really upset that I paid for a burger I had to give away because it didn’t taste like the original burger I used to order for the past 4 years. And I always ask for medium rare but NEVER get it. Rather say that you can’t do it, instead of saying yes and then me getting a beyond well done burger.

Staff is rather unfriendly and no vegan options, also slightly overpriced. But otherwise good store and very convenient.

The prices are a bit much, but you do get good quality food, especially the hot meals.But youd better off going somewhere else if youre trying to get household supplies, everything is so much more expensive here.

Great food options, needs more vegetarian variety.Coffee is pretty good.

Convenient store especially for students. Snacks and meals available. Well stocked for a convenient store (so you wont find certain specific things youre looking for) though a little pricey. All in all, pretty good.

Food is generally tasty and well portioned but service is far too slow. Personnel also lack basic barista training and as a result they serve the worst coffee in Stellenbosch. Generally grocery shopping is a breeze as they have all the basics. They also have a good selection of prepared meals to grab on the run.

Great service, extended hours are a win. Coffee is usually a bit too hot but the smiles of the staff make up for it.

Cheap full meals, especially good for students.

Lovely place, open late, perdect for those late night snacks students seek

Lekker food at student prices. Love there bacon avo and feta wrap!!

You do wait longer than youd like for your food, but its guaranteed satisfaction. Convenience is key💪

The most convenient convenient store and cafe/deli ever. Its situated right between the residences of the Stellenbosch university, and thus very popular with students. It has a very wide range of products, but with a price. A favorite here are the ice slushies, featuring Milo, coffee, Oreo and strawberry.

Great little kiosk with late hours. Toasted ciabattas are incredible; the bacon, avo and feta, or smoked chicken breast, mango and feta are both incredible combinations with mozzarella, sweet chilli sauce and mayo. Absolutely must-have.And for the sweet tooth, the Nesquik smoothies are to die for.

These guys make filling and delicious food at great prices.

Accessible, has all the basics. You can also order freshly made meals.

Quick and friendly service. Spacious layout

The staff were the most unfriendly people I have ever met. They didnt bother to greet, they acted like they were doing me a favour by taking my food order. They seemed more interested in watching whatever was on the f**ck TV rather than acknowledge my existence.I havent even tried the food, but I am certain I will never step foot in this place again.

Their food is good but their snacks and such are over-priced,,, but thats not the main problem,,, their staff has MASSIVE attitude problems,,, they are rude, disrespectful and so unnecessary,,,,honestly, they chose to be there and theyre getting paid for it,,, I dont understand what the problem is. Their staff needs to either be trained to be decent humans or leave,,, literally no one is forcing them to be thereto the manager of the place, I hope you do something about your staff before you run out of business,,, I was disgusted and appalled at how they were treating the customers,,, were not asking for a smile,,, were asking for basic human dignity. Honestly, no one is asking too much from them.

Negatives:- When the queue to the till is long.. its loooooooooooong 🙄 when En Route is full all the students trying to speak louder than each other is deafening.- Could have more product choices- The kitchen often fails to adhere to customer commandsPositives:- Stays open till late (23:30ish)- Sells good in house made food- Safe and close to most students on campus

Awesome place to get something to eat. Just wish the staff were friendlier.

Cheap and great food especially after gym!

Some of the best food Ive had. Extra crispy wraps and tramazinis with soft and succulent insides.

Great place to grab a snack on the go.

Great place for a student rendezvous. Meals are tasty and reasonably priced.

Cute little shop with all the necessities for a student. Closes at midnight everyday of the week which is quite cool for me. It is however on the expensive side.

Food is great, good pricing. Sometimes you have to wait a little long for them to prepare it though.

Great food! Ordering takeaway unfortunately takes forever..

Good fast food. Well priced. Dont expect healthy, but its good

Great cafe for students living around. Reasonable pricing and a great variety of both ready-made and hot meals

Very nice food&drinks and I sometimes like to hang out here, but I cant remember when last i got someone (person taking the orders, or working at the till) greeting me with a smile.

The pre made food is a bit shaky but it is im a prime location for students and dont overcharge students too much. Has some of the best ice milos in town.

En Route staff are excellent. They were chosen well. Thanks. Ps: Try and sell some cheaper items

Slow service

Awesome and appropriately stocked, just wish the waiting time for orders can be shorter and that there would be a few more healthy options on the order menu.But as a whole 👍

So good inside and outside orders deleverd fast

Decently sized portions - not the best option for a student budget.

Excellent meals served from an experienced and happy staff. Always a pleasure to visit here.

Modern little store, has everything youll need including a food counter.

Great place to get good quality take-aways. The Woolworths of take-away places

TheMost fine route acuaried

By far the best joint in Stellenbosch, fresh ingredients 10/10.

Great food, recommend the ciabata and the wraps. Food is tasty, fresh, and fairly priced.

Good for stopping and getting something to eat or drink for a while

Well priced student oriented shop with good variety.

Good selection, convenient open times but very busy and quite pricey

Quick service, though the staff could be more pleasant

Good value for money when you order baguettes.

Good food and quick service. This place has fed me many a late night

Energetic vibe; exceptional prices and good quality food.

Great selection quick meals!

For a late night snack in Stellies, one of the best places to go to

Great food and variety, prices arent always the best.

Limited selection and quite expensive but tasty home made food is available

Food is great! The people could be a bit friendlier :)

Great food. Convenient. Dependant.

Very tasty food, but a bit pricey.

Overpriced but convenient with good wraps

Maybe a bit pricey but some good food available

Staff not the friendliest but food is good

Even though the staff gets a bunch of complaints, they are doing a great service by staying open until 00:00.

The food is super great

Nice food. Usually very busy.

Very convenient for students since its situated around most of the residences. Very expensive relative to other shops

The ultimate hang over food in a student town. Nailed it

High prices but convenient

Great setup, open until late. Bit on the pricey side.

Food is really great. Service gets very slow when there is a lot of people.

If youre into rude staff combined with mediocre food and overpriced groceries, youll definitely love En Route.

Horrendous products and service every time

Very convenient with nice food. Food takes a while to be prepared.

The food is always fresh

Infamously unfriendly cashiers

Really good food, easily accessible for students, some items are a bit overpriced and the service could be better

Pricey for no reason. Food is good though.

Great food... variety lacks though.

Great place for an on-the-go meal

Convenient and good food but expensive

If there was a competition for Unfriendly staff/service, En Route would be pretty tough to beat.

Amazing good food at affordable prices

Great Food, Good for a quick bite.

Fresh food. Lots of options.
