Yesterday I treated myself to a slice of gluten and dairy free orange and almond cake from Folk Coffee Anthropology. The texture and taste of the cake was absolutely delicious. (I didn’t have the side serving of cream as I’m trying to consume less dairy).
Folk Coffee has such a cool vibe! The service is always great (like, ALWAYS). I really enjoy sitting in the coffee shop whilst starring at the rustic and modern decor.
What a winner! Delicious breakfast, varied and interesting drinks menu (including at least 5 different types of espresso and beautiful pressed juices e.g watermelon and grape), excellent service, an amazing play area for kids including someone to keep an eye on the kids and spotless bathrooms, including change mat for babies. One suggestion (considering everything else was so perfect for us as a family) a kids menu or at least the option to order kiddie sized drinks. We will be back!
If you are in Cape Town you have to go their. Great food. Easy parking. Loved this place
Perfect prime position and cater for all ages. Lovely stylish atmosphere. Will definitely be looking forward to going back hopefully soon
