#TravelTuesday: Top 5 Brunch Spots in the Mother City

Cape Town’s dining industry has seen remarkable growth in recent years. This has also meant an increase in establishments that serve a scrumptious brunch. Whether it’s intimate restaurants where one can sit and reflect over brunch or efficient spots where one can grab a healthy breakfast on the go, the Mother City can provide brunch bliss for everyone. Here are just five spots where you can enjoy mouth-watering brunch when in Cape Town. 

  1. The Butcher’s Wife 

If anything meaty sounds like the ultimate romance to your tastebuds, The Butcher’s Wife restaurant is for you. From slices of ribeye steak to beautifully cooked eggs and even beef chorizo, the menu consists of brunch options that do not disappoint. The establishment is located in Belgravia and prices start from as little as R100. 

  1. Jarryd’s Brunch & Bistro 

At Jarryd’s, the concept of an ‘all-day breakfast’ is truly taken seriously. It is so serious that the all-day brunches in Sea Point are open from 07:30 to 22:00. One can enjoy a speciality coffee or a good mimosa alongside a light breakfast snack or a greasy brunch with everything eggs and meaty. No bookings are needed as the spot operates on a first-come, first-served basis. 

  1. Egghead Diner 

Egghead Diner is at the heart of Cape Town and is a must-try for all egg enthusiasts. Whether your vibe is sunny-side up or a little scrambled, you’re in for an egg-citing and delicious encounter. The menu is dominated by egg-themed dishes which include French toast and egg rolls. Of course, the good old classic Benedict has not been left out either. 

So, go ahead and enjoy some egg-inspired creativity.

  1. Jonkershuis 

Fancy some brunch with a view? Jonkershuis overlooks the expansive Constantia vineyards and is an excellent choice if you are in search of a scrumptious and hearty brunch. There is a wide choice of options to enjoy including light scones and jam, to irresistible and filling meals such as the brekkie burger that is stacked with BBQ, eggs and bacon. Jonkershuis is open 7 days a week and brunch is served until 11:30 from as little as R74. 

5. Sonny and Irene 

Sonny and Irene is an establishment that has understood the aesthetics assignment. Dreamy shades of pale pink and ambient lighting set the tone and give the first impression. Then comes the scrumptious, creative and irresistible menu that consists of extensive egg-based offerings. Classic with a contemporary twist, the brunchery displays a thread of culinary creativity throughout its offerings. Oh, and their baked goods are to die for! The same can be said for their delicious halloumi and salsa verde which are definite must-tries.
