The Blue Room at Grub & Vine is our live music and cocktail lounge that pays homage to the soulful sounds of jazz and the blues. A collaborative venture between Grub & Vine's Chef Patron Matt Manning and well-known jazz artist Buddy Wells, the lounge also sports a state-of-the-art recording studio, where you'll catch musicians in action from time to time.

Located on the ground floor of 103 Bree Street, the Blue Room features a bespoke cocktail menu - with delicious concoctions such as the 'Ella Fizzgerald' (gin, lime, rhubarb, fennel and Brut MCC) and 'Muddy Waters' (Bourbon, dry sherry, vanilla maple and naartjie) - as well as a delectable selection of small plates for guests to nibble on.

The Blue Room is open for lunch from Monday - Friday, brunch on Saturdays and tapas and cocktails at night, while live performances from some of the country's top jazz, soul and blues artists will be a regular evening occurrence.

    We had several choices that were not available and when such an important Cape Town performer like Keegan Williams was playing that was most disappointing. Otherwise great night.

    Amazing experience but was disappointed that the waitress gave herself 12% tip for poor service but all in all a great way to spend a night

    The Blue Room responded on Tue 25 Mar 25:
    Thank you for your review. We apologise that the waitress didn't clearly communicate our gratuity policy. We will make sure to know with our team to be clear in this regard.
