Now and again you come across a memorable place that’s so well concealed you feel reluctant to tell anyone about it. The Gardeners Cottage is just that.

A haven of tranquility in the heart of Cape Town’s southern suburbs. Enjoy great food and good service under the huge Camphor trees. Make breakfast extra special with the iconic Eggs Benedict. Sip on Uber coffee made by talented baristas. Browse the deli for cakes, muffins, preserves and pick up a freshly baked sourdough to take home.

    It was us with our young adult children, plus add-one. Such a special occasion is a stunning location, great food and gracious and attentive service. First class
