6 cafés with brilliant work breakfasts
No time for a sit-down breakfast at a café?
GAUTENG
Breezeblock
You might want to linger over the Dutch-baked pancakes served at this trendy Brixton spot, but it’s also great for a delicious brekkie before work.
Nice on 4th
If the signature breakfast dish of egg baskets (eggs cooked in toast, with accoutrements) is not to your taste, there’s always the health breakfast to enjoy before work at this ever-popular Jozi eatery.
Afro-Boer
From baked oats – with whiskey and cream, or berries and honey – to a yummy breakfast croissant, this much-loved Pretoria spot is a great place to break the fast.
KZN
Freedom Café
An imaginative menu with no less than six eggs Benedicts to choose from means you’ll find a satisfying breakfast for sure at this relaxed Durban café.
WCAPE
Giulio’s
Located in Cape Town city center, this stylish eatery is a firm favourite with worker bees for their lovely breakfasts – and the lunchtime buffet also draws crowds.
Now Now
There’s something for every breakfast preference at this Cape Town café, from oats pots to egg pots, and a variety of breakfast buns (from chorizo to trout) – it’s perfect for a quick but filling bite.
