Gordon's Bay · Specialty Coffee

Truly great coffee, on your way to the sea.

A beachfront coffee bar on Beach Road — specialty cups poured fast, for surfers, locals and everyone chasing the morning light over False Bay.

Your next celebration, on the bay.

Birthdays, functions, get-togethers — we host most events, from grazing tables and platters to a full spit braai. Venue hire is free, as long as our in-house catering and cash bar are used.

Built for the morning rush from day one. Order, and you're back in the sun before the foam settles.
