Situated in the heart of One&Only Cape Town, the untameable spirit of Vista ignites an exciting reaction. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame majestic views of Table Mountain and a sculptural centrepiece above the bar symbolises the mythical tale of this natural wonder. Day-to-evening entertainment abounds and live music fills the air. From the kitchen, vibrant dishes showcase the flavours of the region, avant-garde Afternoon Tea is a cause for celebration, and masterfully crafted cocktails tempt the palate.

Kindly note that balloons and table décor are not permitted in any of the public venues at One&One Cape Town.

Private venues are available upon request.

    Took mum to Vista bar for high tea yesterday to celebrate an early 70th birthday. From the moment we arrived , we were greeted with a warm welcome and a tasty welcome drink . The High tea was delicious and of high quality . The ambience was perfect not forgetting the stunning views of table mountain in the background. We were entertained by the beautiful soothing sounds of the pianist, he was absolutely brilliant and even payed happy birthday tune for mum . Ann attended to us and she was brilliant as well . Explaining in great detail the menus to us . If anyone is visiting Cape Town definitely add this experience to your to do list as you will not be disappointed. 5 star treatment and 5 star service . Highly recommended.

    It was a lovely afternoon. The hostess Amelia made us feel very welcome and attended to us, as if we were her personal guests. When she realised some of us is Afrikaans speaking, she spoke to us in Afrikaans!! That was super special. She was so kind to take many pictures for us. The lady that served the tea was very good. She explained to us everything and even mixed a special brand, on request for my friend. We did enjoy the piano music very much...it adds a good vibe to the atmosphere. We were celebrating a 70th birthday, and had a very enjoyable time. For a special occasion, or maybe make your own special day, go for a high tea at The One Only Hotel!!

    The Vista Lounge/Bar is beautiful, the view is awesome and the service is exemplary but the tea is a tad overpriced. In common with most such offerings one feels that there should be more savouries and fewer sweet things.
